Flask extension

from postgresql_audit.flask import versioning_manager

from my_app.extensions import db


versioning_manager.init(db.Model)


class Article(db.Model):
    __tablename__ = 'article'
    __versioned__ = {}  # <- IMPORTANT!
    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    name = db.Column(db.String)


article = Article(name='Some article')
db.session.add(article)
db.session.commit()

Now we can check the newly created activity.

Activity = versioning_manager.activity_cls

activity = Activity.query.first()
activity.id             # 1
activity.table_name     # 'article'
activity.verb           # 'insert'
activity.old_data       # None
activity.changed_data   # {'id': '1', 'name': 'Some article'}

article.name = 'Some other article'
db.session.commit()

activity = Activity.query.order_by(db.desc(Activity.id)).first()
activity.id             # 2
activity.table_name     # 'article'
activity.verb           # 'update'
activity.object_id      # 1
activity.old_data       # {'id': '1', 'name': 'Some article'}
activity.changed_data   # {'name': 'Some other article'}

db.session.delete(article)
db.session.commit()

activity = Activity.query.order_by(db.desc(Activity.id)).first()
activity.id             # 3
activity.table_name     # 'article'
activity.verb           # 'delete'
activity.object_id      # 1
activity.old_data       # {'id': '1', 'name': 'Some other article'}
activity.changed_data   # None
