Transaction Wrapper

DBObjectBase

DBObjectBase is a base class for mapped classes.

Example:

from datetime import datetime
from sqlalchemy import Column, DateTime, Integer, String
from sqla_utils import DBObjectBase, Transaction

class DBAppointment(DBObjectBase):
    __tablename__ = "appointments"

    id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
    date = Column(DateTime, nullable=False)
    description = Column(String(1000), nullable=False, default="")

Appointment items can then be queried like this:

from sqla_utils import begin_transaction

with begin_transaction() as t:
    app123 = DBAppointment.fetch_by_id(t, 123)
    great_apps = DBAppointment.fetch_all(t, DBAppointment.description.like("%great%"))

It is recommended to add custom query, creation, and update methods:

class DBAppointment(DBObjectBase):
    ...

    @classmethod
    def create(cls, t: Transaction, date: datetime, description: str) -> DBAppointment:
        o = cls()
        o.date = date
        o.description = description
        t.add(o)
        return o

    @classmethod
    def fetch_all_after(cls, t: Transaction, date: datetime) -> List[DBAppointment]:
        return cls.fetch_all(t, cls.start >= dates.start)

    def update_description(self, t: Transaction, new_description: str) -> None:
        self.description = new_description
        t.changed(self)
