Tortoise ORM backend for DuckDB
This integration allows you to use asyncio duckdb APIs with Tortoise ORM.
Install
tortoise-orm-extra-duckdb is compatible with Python 3.11 and newer. You can install it from PyPI:
$ pip install tortoise-orm-extra-duckdb
Usage
It is very simple to use. You only need to add two lines of code to the original project and switch the database to duckdb.
import asyncio
from tortoise import Tortoise, fields, run_async
from tortoise.models import Model
+ from tortoise.patch import monkey_patch
class Event(Model):
id = fields.IntField(primary_key=True)
name = fields.TextField(description="Name of the event that corresponds to an action")
datetime = fields.DatetimeField(
null=True, description="Datetime of when the event was generated"
)
class Meta:
table = "event"
table_description = "This table contains a list of all the example events"
def __str__(self):
return self.name
async def main():
~ await Tortoise.init(db_url="duckdb://:memory:", modules={"models": ["__main__"]})
await Tortoise.generate_schemas()
event = await Event.create(id=1, name="Test")
await Event.filter(id=event.id).update(name="Updated name")
print(await Event.filter(name="Updated name").first())
await Event(id=2, name="Test 2").save()
print(await Event.all().values_list("id", flat=True))
print(await Event.all().values("id", "name"))
if __name__ == "__main__":
+ monkey_patch()
asyncio.run(main())
