How to choose between ORMs?
SQLalchemy and Storm are a few of the popular ORMs out there. Personally I have been using web2py's DAL. Other than form generator availability, 'print as raw SQL', multiple primary keys, widgets*, `check` conditions and compatibility with OracleDB, Postgres, SQLite and some of the NoSQL systems; what else should I be looking for? Thanks for all suggestions, Alec Taylor *not sure if widgets should be a requirement; by widgets I mean annotation of db schema to specify which widget to use with the form generator PS: Will likely use this ORM with: Flask, Bottle or Twisted Matrix -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Depending on what you're doing, schema discovery (aka introspection, reflection, etc) may or may not be important to you. And it should come with a nice shrubbery. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I know None. Currently I use web2py's; which is a DAL not an ORM. On Thu, Apr 4, 2013 at 4:05 AM, Rodrick Brown rodrick.br...@gmail.com wrote: Pick the one you learn and know.
