nr.utils.ponyorm

Utilities for Pony ORM.

Composable databases

Applications with plugin interfaces may choose to allow the use of a common database, accessed via the same Pony ORM database object. The nr.utils.ponyorm.appdb provides classes to allow just that.

Example:

from nr.utils.ponyorm.appdb import AppDatabase, Optional, Required
appdb = AppDatabase(__name__)
class Person(appdb.Entity):
  name = Required(str)
  # etc. etc.

Then from the application startup logic:

from pony.orm import Database
db = Database()
for appdb in load_all_application_databases():  # ominous functions
  appdb.bind_to(db)
db.generate_mapping(create_tables=True)

Common converters

Provides common converter implementations that are not built into Pony ORM. All converters can be registered via AppDatabase.register_converter(converter_cls) or with nr.utils.ponyorm.converters.register_converter(db, converter_cls).

Available converters are

• EnumConverter

Utility functions

• get_db(entity)
• get_one(entity_cls, kwargs)
• get_or_create(entity_cls, get, set=None)
• upsert(entity_cls, get, set=None, mutate=True)
