Installation

It is recommended to only install the database apis you need for your use case. Example below is for psycopg2!

pip install pydapper[psycopg2]

poetry

poetry add pydapper -E psycopg2

Never write this again...

from psycopg2 import connect

@dataclass
class Task:
    id: int
    description: str
    due_date: datetime.date

with connect("postgresql://pydapper:pydapper@localhost/pydapper") as conn:
    with conn.cursor() as cursor:
        cursor.execute("select id, description, due_date from task")
        headers = [i[0] for i in cursor.description]
        data = cursor.fetchall()

list_data = [Task(**dict(zip(headers, row))) for row in data]

Instead, write...

from dataclasses import dataclass
import datetime

import pydapper


@dataclass
class Task:
    id: int
    description: str
    due_date: datetime.date

    
with pydapper.connect("postgresql+psycopg2://pydapper:pydapper@locahost/pydapper") as commands:
    tasks = commands.query("select id, description, due_date from task;", model=Task)

(This script is complete, it should run "as is")
