prefect-sqlalchemy 0.2.2

Prefect integrations for interacting with SQLAlchemy.

prefect-sqlalchemy

Welcome!

Prefect integrations for interacting with various databases.

Getting Started

Python setup

Requires an installation of Python 3.7+.

We recommend using a Python virtual environment manager such as pipenv, conda or virtualenv.

These tasks are designed to work with Prefect 2.0. For more information about how to use Prefect, please refer to the Prefect documentation.

Installation

Install prefect-sqlalchemy with pip:

pip install prefect-sqlalchemy

Then, register to view the block on Prefect Cloud:

prefect block register -m prefect_sqlalchemy

Note, to use the load method on Blocks, you must already have a block document saved through code or saved through the UI.

Write and run a flow

Using a SyncDriver with SqlAlchemyConnector

Use SqlAlchemyConnector as a context manager to execute and execute_many operations; then, fetch_many and fetch_one operations.

from prefect_sqlalchemy import SqlAlchemyConnector, SyncDriver, ConnectionComponents

with SqlAlchemyConnector(
    connection_info=ConnectionComponents(
        driver=SyncDriver.SQLITE_PYSQLITE,
        database="my.db"
    ),
) as database_credentials:
    database_credentials.execute(
        "CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS customers (name varchar, address varchar);"
    )
    database_credentials.execute(
        "INSERT INTO customers (name, address) VALUES (:name, :address);",
        parameters={"name": "Marvin", "address": "Highway 42"},
    )
    database_credentials.execute_many(
        "INSERT INTO customers (name, address) VALUES (:name, :address);",
        seq_of_parameters=[
            {"name": "Ford", "address": "Highway 42"},
            {"name": "Unknown", "address": "Highway 42"},
        ],
    )
    # Repeated fetch* calls using the same operation will skip re-executing and instead return the next set of results
    print(database_credentials.fetch_many("SELECT * FROM customers", size=2))
    print(database_credentials.fetch_one("SELECT * FROM customers"))

Using an AsyncDriver with SqlAlchemyConnector

Use SqlAlchemyConnector as an async context manager to execute and execute_many operations; then, fetch_many and fetch_one operations.

from prefect_sqlalchemy import SqlAlchemyConnector, AsyncDriver, ConnectionComponents

async with SqlAlchemyConnector(
    connection_info=ConnectionComponents(
        driver=AsyncDriver.SQLITE_AIOSQLITE,
        database="test.db"
    ),
) as database_credentials:
    await database_credentials.execute(
        "CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS customers (name varchar, address varchar);"
    )
    await database_credentials.execute(
        "INSERT INTO customers (name, address) VALUES (:name, :address);",
        parameters={"name": "Marvin", "address": "Highway 42"},
    )
    await database_credentials.execute_many(
        "INSERT INTO customers (name, address) VALUES (:name, :address);",
        seq_of_parameters=[
            {"name": "Ford", "address": "Highway 42"},
            {"name": "Unknown", "address": "Highway 42"},
        ],
    )
    # Repeated fetch* calls using the same operation will skip re-executing and instead return the next set of results
    print(await database_credentials.fetch_many("SELECT * FROM customers", size=2))
    print(await database_credentials.fetch_one("SELECT * FROM customers"))
