I've set up my application with multiple database connections to postgresql, which then reflects the table structure into my classes under /models. i am using sqlahelper.
myapp_reader can read to all tables myapp_writer can read and write to all tables what I 'expected' is as follows: - calls to sqlahelper.get_session() would return the session ( ok, it does ) - items that i try to 'add' to the session would go through the 'primary mapper' , unless I call something like binds= {models.core.TestTable : sqlahelper.get_engine('reader') } dbSession.configure(binds=binds) " what I experienced is this: - items are randomly saved to the database through either the myapp_reader or myapp_writer engines. sometimes the engines change every other request, sometimes they stick for a while. there's simply no way to predict. can anyone offer suggestions. i clearly didn't do something correctly. the relevant code for my setup is below.... .ini sqlalchemy_reader.url = postgres://myapp_reader:myapp@localhost/myapp sqlalchemy_writer.url = postgres://myapp_writer:myapp@localhost/myapp __init__.py engine_reader = sqlalchemy.engine_from_config(settings, prefix="sqlalchemy_reader.") sqlahelper.add_engine(engine_reader,name='reader') models.initialize_sql(engine_reader,primary=True) engine_writer = sqlalchemy.engine_from_config(settings, prefix="sqlalchemy_writer.") sqlahelper.add_engine(engine_writer,name='writer') models.initialize_sql(engine_writer,primary=False) models/__init__.py def initialize_sql(engine,primary=True): DBSession.configure(bind=engine) DBMetadata.bind = engine map_tables( myapp.models , primary=primary ) def map_tables( app_model , primary=False ): to_reflect= code to find items to reflect for item in to_reflect: table= Table( table_name, DBMetadata, autoload=True ) if primary: mapper( _class , table ) else: mapper( _class , table , non_primary=True ) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
