Gramps uses the pickle module to serialise object hierarchies and store them in the database.
* https://docs.python.org/3/library/pickle.html
Below is a diagram of the Gramps data model (v4.1). As of October 2020, this model is reported to be valid for the v5.1 of Gramps. However, there is a minor `PlaceName` objects change in 4.2 to contain a string, language code and date range.  The [[GEPS_045:_Place_Model_Enhancements|Places Model Enhancements]] planned for v5.2 3 are expected to have deeper changes. [[GEPS_045:_Place_Model_Enhancements#Documentation|One target for that Gramps Proposal]] includes this documentation.
Primary objects are coloured blue. Secondary objects are coloured black. The dotted lines enclose object hierarchies that are stored in the database tables.
