We use a suite of tools locally to perform database construction called pdm_utils. They're publicly available on github. 

https://github.com/SEA-PHAGES/pdm_utils

The usage and structure are detailed in the docs.

https://pdm-utils.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

There's also a tool for database construction called PhamDB, which may be easier to use for the end-user who doesn't want to create a whole pipeline as in pdm_utils.
