If you already have many of the objects in memory anyway or the overhead is too small to be noticeable, you can do it this way.

[sqlalchemy] Re: Table updates using data mapping
would I have to do something like this? sess = create_session() allusers = sess.query(User).select() for user in allusers: user.group = "contractor" print x.name On Jun 26, 10:40 pm, voltron <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Could someone tell me how I would execute this SQL using data mapping? > > # SQL > > UPDATE users SET group=consultant WHERE group = contractor; > > # Mapped object > user_mapper = mapper(User, users) > user = User() > > Thanks --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.

[sqlalchemy] Re: Table updates using data mapping
Updates and inserts on the ORM side of the street are single-object kinds of
things. The pattern is to load a list of objects, make the appropriate
modifications to the those in-memory objects, and then issue a session
flush().
This type of
bulk operation is best done with the SQL generation portion of the library,
like so (using an implicit bound connection here):
users.update(users.c.group == contractor).execute({users.c.group =
consultant})
