[sqlalchemy] Updating children of a one-to-many bi-directional relationship
I had asked this question on Stack Overflow. The details are at this link: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24836816/updating-a-few-children-in-one-to-many-relationship-deletes-all-rows-and-adds-ne The summary is I have a parent class A and a bidirectional one-to-many relationship with class B. When I update the class B list for an instance of A, the update may involve deleting some class B instances, updating some of them, and adding new ones. However, I find that SqlAlchemy deletes all ROWS of classB, and the inserts the necessary new rows. I would have expected SqlAchemy to insert only new rows, not delete and add those rows that are being updated. Do you know what is wrong with my code?

RE: [sqlalchemy] change Oracle sequence on insert
Thanks Michael, You of course is right and I rarely have to use this method. Having said that, once in a while, if I need to migrate a version or do some maintenance, I do need that option. How would I do that in sqlalchemy? Do I have to use raw SQL for that? Why would that not scale?

Re: [sqlalchemy] change Oracle sequence on insert
raw SQL and it wouldn't scale because you probably cannot emit two such ALTER statements concurrently, and it probably doesn't run very fast either. http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e26088/statements_2012.htm On Jul 21, 2014, at 3:19 AM, Ofir Herzas herz...@gmail.com wrote: Thanks Michael, You of course is right and I rarely have to use this method.

Re: [sqlalchemy] Updating children of a one-to-many bi-directional relationship
the code there doesn't seem to show anything that would result in any DELETEs emitted. a DELETE here would only occur if you deassociated a TestDevice and a TestPartition by removing from the TestDevice.partitions collection or setting a TestPartition.device to None, and I don't see that. All of the manipulations you're doing with part.partition_id have nothing to do with any of that, SQLAlchemy's relationships have no idea what you're doing with those, and overall it's a bad idea to mix the usage of obj.foreign_key = id along with direct manipulation of the relationship (where you say dev_part.device = ndev) together. SQLAlchemy's relationship management code knows nothing about any of those foreign key sets.

Re: [sqlalchemy] Updating children of a one-to-many bi-directional relationship
not to mention you're using strings to set integer values, again a bad idea, can only confuse your database: part.partition_id = '345' # -- this is a string partition_id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, nullable=False) # -- should be integer with this program you need to create a short test case that actually runs and step through it with pdb as well as echo=True to analyze more accurately what's happening and when.

Re: [sqlalchemy] Re: Use relationship,can't do session.add (flask)
You are deliberately suppressing the error message with your exception handler in the new_company_generation function. Try getting rid of the try: and exception Exception: lines, then you should see the full error message, either in your web browser, or on the console where you are running the flask application.

Re: [sqlalchemy] Multiple tables and foreignkey constraints
I agree with what Mike said, but I would just suggest renaming projector_table to something like purchased_table or inventory_table. Everything in models is a different model of a projector, so the table names are a bit confusing. In non-database terms, a good way to visualize relationships is to think of a form on a webpage. If you expect to select items from a dropdown select menu, then those things are usually best as something your foreign-key into their own table (or perhaps some sort of enumerated value, but that's another topic). If something is a bit of freeform text you enter, then it belongs in a column. You can also think of ways you'd want to search or display data. You might want to show projectors that only match a specific MFG, or have a specific type of source. Both of those requirements suggest having a seperate table with a foreign key might be a good idea ( vs a fulltext search ) That said, I'm unclear about what sources are. If a source is an AV input, then the source types would be global and shared. So a more normalized DB would have the sources in: sources_table = Table(u'source', metadata, Column(u'id', Integer, primary_key=True), Column(u'label', String(20)), ) model_2_source_table = Table(u'model_2_source', metadata, Column(u'model_id', Integer, primary_key=True, ForeignKey(u'model.id'), Column(u'source_id', Integer, primary_key=True, ForeignKey(u'source.id' ), ) If a source is a local input in your building though, then you would want to associate the 'source' with the inventory item you are tracking. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups sqlalchemy group.

For example my simple register page, @app.route('/reg') def register(): formUser = userReg(request.form) if request.method == POST and formUser.validate(): session['userEnabled'] = 1 #php style :)// session['mail'] = formUser.mail.data session['psw'] = formUser.psw.data uyeObj = Kullanici(%s%formUser.mail.data,%s%formUser.psw.data) db.session.add(uyeObj) db.session.commit() return redirect('/profile') return render_template('register.html', form=formUser) I must this code checking, and as test, I am calling this function User.query.all() Here is error result Traceback (most recent call last): File C:\Users\user\Desktop\Flask\test\test.py, line 130, in module xx = User.query.all() File C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy-0.9.6-py2.7-win32.egg\sqlalchemy\orm\query.py, line 2293, in all return list(self) File C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy-0.9.6-py2.7-win32.egg\sqlalchemy\orm\query.py, line 2405, in __iter__ return self._execute_and_instances(context) File C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy-0.9.6-py2.7-win32.egg\sqlalchemy\orm\query.py, line 2418, in _execute_and_instances close_with_result=True) File C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy-0.9.6-py2.7-win32.egg\sqlalchemy\orm\query.py, line 2409, in _connection_from_session **kw) File C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy-0.9.6-py2.7-win32.egg\sqlalchemy\orm\session.py, line 846, in connection close_with_result=close_with_result) File C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy-0.9.6-py2.7-win32.egg\sqlalchemy\orm\session.py, line 850, in _connection_for_bind return self.transaction._connection_for_bind(engine) File C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy-0.9.6-py2.7-win32.egg\sqlalchemy\orm\session.py, line 315, in _connection_for_bind conn = bind.contextual_connect() File C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy-0.9.6-py2.7-win32.egg\sqlalchemy\engine\base.py, line 1737, in contextual_connect self.pool.connect(), File C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy-0.9.6-py2.7-win32.egg\sqlalchemy\pool.py, line 332, in connect return _ConnectionFairy._checkout(self) File C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy-0.9.6-py2.7-win32.egg\sqlalchemy\pool.py, line 630, in _checkout fairy = _ConnectionRecord.checkout(pool) File C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy-0.9.6-py2.7-win32.egg\sqlalchemy\pool.py, line 433, in checkout rec = pool._do_get() File C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy-0.9.6-py2.7-win32.egg\sqlalchemy\pool.py, line 1042, in _do_get return self._create_connection() File C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy-0.9.6-py2.7-win32.egg\sqlalchemy\pool.py, line 278, in _create_connection return _ConnectionRecord(self) File C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy-0.9.6-py2.7-win32.egg\sqlalchemy\pool.py, line 404, in __init__ self.connection = self.__connect() File C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy-0.9.6-py2.7-win32.egg\sqlalchemy\pool.py, line 530, in __connect connection = self.__pool._creator() File C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy-0.9.6-py2.7-win32.egg\sqlalchemy\engine\strategies.py, line 95, in connect connection_invalidated=invalidated File C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy-0.9.6-py2.7-win32.egg\sqlalchemy\util\compat.py, line 189, in raise_from_cause reraise(type(exception), exception, tb=exc_tb) File C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy-0.9.6-py2.7-win32.egg\sqlalchemy\engine\strategies.py, line 89, in connect return dialect.connect(*cargs, **cparams) File C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy-0.9.6-py2.7-win32.egg\sqlalchemy\engine\default.py, line 376, in connect return self.dbapi.connect(*cargs, **cparams) OperationalError:

Everything in models is a different model of a projector, so the table names are a bit confusing. snip Short answer: manufacturer/model tables are projectors, and sources are the video inputs available for that particular model. The sources table is going to be used to keep track of what the manufacturer has listed in their documentation for selecting a particular video source. The projectors_table is persistent storage use for what projectors that the user can control via networking. Basic information is some text columns that the end-user can assign for their own (short) notes, but the model_id field is used so that the text can be matched with the projector that they have control over. Longer answer. Column 1 is PJLink code for selecting that input, the rest of the line is text. Example for Eiki model LC/XL200 projector: (Text is from Eiki webpage control) 11 RGB (pc analog) 12 RGB (Scart) 13 RGB (PC Digital) Example Hitachi CP-X2514: (Text is from PJLink user manual from Hitachi) 11 Computer IN 1 12 Computer IN 2 13 Component As noted, different manufacturers may have different text for the same inputs, so the sources table is just keeping track of the text for the input source - hopefully text that the end-user does not find too confusing :) This is not an inventory program. The part I'm looking to add is basic projector control to a program that will send some output via a second computer video output to a projector. One point is that there may be multiple computers connected to a single projector via multiple inputs (sources). I was thinking of having manufacturer/model/source tables so the end-user doesn't have to re-enter the information if they just happen to have multiple projectors with the same model - as a side possibility, also having an xml file with this information available that can be imported into those tables. When the end-user adds a projector to the program, they can select the projector by manufacturer (Eiki) - model (LC/XL200) - then the sources (video inputs) would be added to the projector class so they can then select the video source to display. Since using PJLink codes would be confusing (What does input 11 select?), the text pulled from the sources table would then let them use the familiar text (documented in their projector user manual - like RGB (pc analog) ) to select the source. An example xml file for importing would look something like: projector manufacturer='Eiki' model name='LC/XL200' source pjlink='11'RGB (PC analog)/source source pjlink='12'RGB (Scart)/source source pjlink='13'RGB (PC digital)/source /model model name=.'...' /model /projector With the importing in mind, there still has to be the option for the end-user to manually add an entry for projector manufacturer/model/sources (technical note, with PJLink, I can retrieve the manufacturer name, model name, and the available sources via the network, just not the text for the sources). With that, then Jonathan's suggestion of removing the foreign_key on the sources table and create a 4th table that keeps track of the model-sources constraints. As for the projectors_table, instead of a foreign_key just use an integer column as an index into the models_table would be the suggestion? projector_table = Table(u'projector', metadata, Column(u'id', Integer, primary_key=True), Column(u'model_2_source_id', Integer) ) The way things are looking, looks like I'm going to have multiple selects. Not an issue, since they will only be used on program startup, not during normal operations. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups sqlalchemy group.

Re: [sqlalchemy] Multiple tables and foreignkey constraints
Forgot to mention that during typical operation, the only time the database will be accessed would be during down time (add/delete) or program startup (retrieve list of projectors to control) - not during a presentation. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups sqlalchemy group.
