albus 0.0.2

Small and dummy DB-API 2 data mapper

This Python data mapper library was created thinking on simplicity learning and using it. As opposed to other ORM options, this one will not be as powerful and flexible in terms of queries. That is the trade-off to make it simpler to learn and use.

Usage

Defining models is done using property descriptors as you would for SQLAlchemy and Django. Querying them is completely different in regards to how we avoid overriding Python operators or using dynamic keyword arguments.

from albus.model import Model
from albus import field


class Book(Model):

    author = field.StringField()
    title = field.StringField()
    year = field.IntegerField()


query = Book.new_query()
query.filter_equals('author', 'John Doe')
query.filter_greater('year', 2000)

results = query.select()
for current in results:
    print('Found:', current.title)
