arangodantic 0.3.0

Database models for ArangoDB using Pydantic base models.

Arangodantic

Database models for ArangoDB using Pydantic base models.

Installation

The package is available on PyPI:

pip install arangodantic

# Or with Shylock
pip install arangodantic[shylock]

Usage

Define your database models by extending either DocumentModel or EdgeModel. Nested structures can be created by extending pydantic.BaseModel.

Configure Arangodantic. You can optionally define a collection name prefix, a key generation function and a lock (needed if you want to use the locking functionality; Shylock is supported out of the box, any other locking service such as Sherlock should at least in theory also work).

Ensure you have an ArangoDB server available with known credentials

docker run --rm -p 8529:8529 -e ARANGO_ROOT_PASSWORD="" arangodb/arangodb:3.7.2.1

You might find migrate-anything useful for creating and managing collections and indexes.

More examples

• The graph example shows how arangodantic can be used with graphs. Please note that graph related functionality is at the moment really limited and will likely be extended later and might even be restructured, so use with caution.
