Is this something inside the application or external to it? If it is external to the application - I'd probably just target the database directly (Postgres or MySQL). The internals of Galaxy use sqlalchemy for the most part (http://www.sqlalchemy.org/). I've done a lot with the database but I've never really read a tutorial on sqlalchemy - I just find something close in the code and hack on that pattern.
The are a lot of examples in the code of using sqlalchemy - if you want an example of like using postgres directly - here is one:

Hello Everyone, I am trying to create a query to modify a value from a table in the galaxy database, but don't quite know what this language is that is being used to modify the database. The only command I know of are sa_session.add and sa_session.flush. Any help would be really appreciated! Katherine
