pyramid_tm does have a configurable activate_hook that you can use to turn off the TM for certain endpoints. You would need to coordinate that with something else that managed the transaction. If I were doing it myself I'd probably configure my activate hook to return true/false based on an custom attribute on the request like `request.activate_tm`. I'd then set this to False in a tween mounted over pyramid_tm. The reason I'd do it this way is because if you're turning off pyramid_tm then you probably still need to do something to manage the connection - and a tween would be a good spot to do this.
That being said, I'd ask why you would want to turn it off instead of just committing multiple times? You just need to use `request.tm.commit()`, `request.tm.abort()` and `request.tm.begin()` instead of `request.dbsession.commit()`. Make sure to always call begin after commit/abort and things should work fine - whether it's a good idea or not in general (see Mikko's comments) is a separate question. - Michael On Thu, Feb 6, 2020 at 7:03 PM Jonathan Vanasco <jonat...@findmeon.com> wrote: > one of my apps uses pyramid_tm, but has reached a point where one > (possibly two) views (out of dozens) need to make explicit commits with the > SqlAlchemy session. > > does anyone know if it's currently possible to handle this? i have a few > apps that only integrate pyramid_tm on a small subset of views, but i > haven't tried to bypass it on a single view in many years.
