Hi.

There's an example of how to make a query in the SimpleLoadTask code I
sent on Friday.   See the getProteinsForName() method:
  http://subversion.flymine.org/trunk/flymine/doc/examples/simple_loader/SimpleLoadTask.java?rev=8190&view=markup

There's another example here:
  http://www.intermine.org/doc/software/java_query/spec.html
And a bit more of a description here:
  http://www.intermine.org/doc/software/howto_query.html

For code example from FlyMine, have a look in:
  http://subversion.flymine.org/trunk/flymine/model/genomic/src/java/org/flymine/postprocess/PostProcessUtil.java?rev=8125&view=markup
and the other classes in the org.flymine.postprocess package.

Your client code doesn't have to be on the same machine as your
postgres server.  Is that what you mean?

We have another database for human genome stuff
(http://www.flymine.org/t1dmine-preview/begin.do).
That database is built in the same way as FlyMine, but from different
database sources.  The data model is very similar to FlyMine.
