# Algen

Algen generates opionated ORM classes for sqlalchemy given a simple schema
either as a commandline string or as a yaml file. It is designed to have
minimal dependencies and is trivially extensible. A command line tool
is bundled along to help generate the models. For DB specific types,
only postgres is currently supported. The tool currently assumes that
sqlalchemy's declarative base object is to be imported like
```from .alchemy_base import Base```
The library prefers making the code verbose rather than concise for the
sake of having better auto-completion and help from your editor/IDE
e.g. first style is preferred to the second one:
```python
def update(self, a=None, b=None):
if a is not None:
self.a = a
if b is not None:
self.b = b
```
```python
def update(self, **kwargs):
for k,v in kwargs.items():
if hasattr(self, k) and v is not None:
setattr(self, k, v)
```


### CLI
```bash
$ algen --help
Usage: algen [OPTIONS]

Options:
-n, --name TEXT Name of model
-c, --columns TEXT Column definition. e.g. col_name:col_type Can be
used multiple times hence named columns. e.g. -c
foo:Int -c bar:Unicode(20)
-d, --destination PATH Destination directory. Default will assume 'models'
directory inside the current working directory
-y, --yaml PATH Yaml file describing the Model. This supersedes the
column definition provided through --columns option.
--help Show this message and exit.
```

Given a file as follows:
```yaml
Person:
columns:
- name: id
type: BigInteger
primary_key: True
auto_increment: True
- name: name
type: Unicode(255)
- name: is_vip
type: Boolean
- name: created_at
type: DateTime(timezone=True)
server_default: now() at time zone 'utc'
- name: updated_at
type: DateTime(timezone=True)
server_default: now() at time zone 'utc'
relationships:
- name: addresses
class: Address
back_populates: 'person'

Address:
columns:
- name: id
type: BigInteger
primary_key: True
auto_increment: True
- name: line1
type: Unicode()
- name: line2
type: Unicode()
- name: line3
type: Unicode()
- name: postcode
type: Unicode(10)
index: True
- name: created_at
type: DateTime(timezone=True)
server_default: now() at time zone 'utc'
- name: updated_at
type: DateTime(timezone=True)
server_default: now() at time zone 'utc'
foreign_keys:
- name: person_id
type: BigInteger
reference:
table: persons
column: id
nullable: False
relationships:
- name: person
class: Person
back_populates: 'addresses'

```

The cli tool will create two the following two files ```person.py``` and ```address.py```.
