That's getting closer.  Now if I could just figure out how to get it to 
use the parameters that I'm actually passing in engine.execute.  It 
appears ibm_db_sa botches the sql (to CALL 
BILLING.subscriber_balance()) if use the commented out 
cursor.callproc(statement, parameters).

As a test I altered the compile_procedure and the call to cursor.callproc and do get the

I get exceptions about the cursor being close when I try to access the ResultProxy object 
returned though.  I think it's because the callproc returns just the results and not a 
cursor/set.



ah well, the result proxy closes the cursor when there's no cursor.description, 
i.e. that theres no results to fetch.

The workarounds are getting uglier here, but you can do this:

result = cursor.callproc(stuff)
context.callproc_result = result


then on the outside when you get your result, context is there:

result = conn.execute(myprocedure...)
print result.context.callproc_result





def compile_procedure(element, compiler, **kw):
   return %s % (element.name)

class ProcedureProxy(ConnectionProxy):

   def cursor_execute(self, execute, cursor, statement, parameters, context,

   print res
   return res
#return cursor.callproc(statement, parameters)

I was able to get it working from just the ibm_db_dbi interface - the actual 
call has to be:
cursor.callproc('BILLING.subscriber_balance',(subid,balance))
these both cause the sql errors:
cursor.callproc('BILLING.subscriber_balance',(1000,0))
cursor.callproc('BILLING.subscriber_balance',(1000,balance))
The compiler.process(literal you suggested results in CALL 
BILLING.subscriber_balance(?,?)(?,?).  I tried changing it to just
return element.name and get just CALL BILLING.subscriber_balance(  ) sent to 
the DB.  How can I get the return cursor.callproc(statement, parameters) to actually have 
the (subid,balance) in the parameters?

well you're right there so figure out what is different about parameters versus your 
tuple there.   a good candidate is, parameters is probably a list, not a tuple.




parameters is an empty list coming into ProcedureProxy.cursor_execute. 
Somehow the parameters aren't making it from the engine execute to 
cursor_execute - which probably has to do with my modification of the 
@compile decorator but my Python skills are not that great yet to know 
what to change.


cursor.execute accepts either a list or tuple

Hi,

I am using SQLAlchemy 0.5.8 with the ibm_db_sa (DB2) adapter and I am wanting 
to add simple session.callproc support so that I can get results from stored 
procedures that don't use a select or table format.  I haven't done any 
development on SA before but at first glance it appears that I would just need 
to add the method in the ibm dialect class and into engines/base.py to raise an 
exception for other dialects that don't support it.  Can it really be that 
easy?  Also, if I implement this will it be a possibility to get it integrated 
into future releases?


So here's the things i ask/state about this:

1. IBM's dialect works with 0.5 ?  it says its only for 0.4.

Yes, with a few minor changes to match renamed logging components.


2. the callproc requirement here assumes that there's absolutely no way to make 
this work using plain execute().  For example with cx_oracle you can use 
outparams with plain execute().   I don't know the details here for DB2, but if 
callproc() really provides functionality that is impossible otherwise, then yes 
we need to examine ways to call it.
I have tried several different ways of getting plain execute to work 
including via the low-level ibm_db.execute interface with no luck.  I 
have also tried changing the DB2 side to be a function instead of a 
stored procedure so that something like select 
myfunctionname(parameter) from SYSIBM.SYSDUMMY1 would work; this 
crashes under SA but works with the low-level ibm_db.  The 
ibm_db.callproc() function works as expected at the low level and 
appears to be AFAIK the only way to get a stored procedure to return 
results for DB2.  I'm using DB2 Express-C 9.7.



3. the way this feature would work would be:

 from sqlalchemy import procedure
 result = engine.execute(procedure.name_of_my_procedure(arg1, arg2, ...))

or with plain text or such, you can do this:

result = engine.connect().execution_options(callproc=True).execute(my 
procedure...)

4. execution_options is only availble in 0.6.  Similarly, any built in 
version of this feature would be for 0.6.

5. I'd like to have IBM's dialect on 0.6.   Two ways to do this would either be to write 
a new dialect from scratch using their DBAPI, or to just port their 0.4/0.5 dialect to 
0.6.   I'd prefer the latter, but I don't know the licensing details.   If IBM were to 
give me the green light I'd just wrap their dialect into SQLAlchemy core 
where all the other ones are.

I initially tried porting it to 0.6 but there are substantial 
differences...ok more than I could fix on one bottle of Mountain Dew!



6. in 0.5 or any, the functionality of #3 can be achieved using public API 
points, here's a demo:

from sqlalchemy.ext.compiler import compiles
from sqlalchemy.interfaces import ConnectionProxy
from sqlalchemy.sql.expression import ClauseElement
from sqlalchemy import create_engine

class procedure(ClauseElement):
supports_execution = True
_autocommit = False
_execution_options = {}

return cursor.execute(statement, parameters)
else:
return execute(cursor, statement, parameters, context)


engine = create_engine('sqlite://', proxy=ProcedureProxy(), echo=True)

print engine.execute(procedure(pragma table_info, foo))


I will give this a try.  Would this be thread-safe under Pylons?

From DB2 logs it appears that the following is what's getting sent to

This is using:

well that would imply a way of doing it with execute().  if the SA dialect 
crashes but not the DBAPI then the SA dialect has a bug.

Sort of: the DB2 side had to be changed from CREATE PROCEDURE to CREATE 
FUNCTION so they aren't quite equivalent functionality especially if it 
were a complex SP which mine is not.  Also, I was successful with the

its likely behaving the same as your execute scenario above and still would

It looks correct there but all that is getting logged is the statement 
which has had all the arguments combined together by the compile.  I 
think that the 1000,? should remain as parameters to cursor.callproc 
instead of everything going into statement.  ibm_db_dbi.callproc is 
probably adding the second set of () since it doesn't think there are 
any arguments.  Just not sure how to fix it.

Hi,

I am using SQLAlchemy 0.5.8 with the ibm_db_sa (DB2) adapter and I am wanting 
to add simple session.callproc support so that I can get results from stored 
procedures that don't use a select or table format.  I haven't done any 
development on SA before but at first glance it appears that I would just need 
to add the method in the ibm dialect class and into engines/base.py to raise an 
exception for other dialects that don't support it.  Can it really be that 
easy?  Also, if I implement this will it be a possibility to get it integrated 
into future releases?

So here's the things i ask/state about this:
1. IBM's dialect works with 0.5 ?  it says its only for 0.4.
2. the callproc requirement here assumes that there's absolutely no way to make 
this work using plain execute().  For example with cx_oracle you can use 
outparams with plain execute().   I don't know the details here for DB2, but if 
callproc() really provides functionality that is impossible otherwise, then yes 
we need to examine ways to call it.
3. the way this feature would work would be:
from sqlalchemy import procedure
result = engine.execute(procedure.name_of_my_procedure(arg1, arg2, ...))
or with plain text or such, you can do this:
   result = engine.connect().execution_options(callproc=True).execute(my 
procedure...)
4. execution_options is only availble in 0.6.  Similarly, any built in 
version of this feature would be for 0.6.
5. I'd like to have IBM's dialect on 0.6.   Two ways to do this would either be to write 
a new dialect from scratch using their DBAPI, or to just port their 0.4/0.5 dialect to 
0.6.   I'd prefer the latter, but I don't know the licensing details.   If IBM were to 
give me the green light I'd just wrap their dialect into SQLAlchemy core 
where all the other ones are.
6. in 0.5 or any, the functionality of #3 can be achieved using public API 
points, here's a demo:
from sqlalchemy.ext.compiler import compiles
from sqlalchemy.interfaces import ConnectionProxy
from sqlalchemy.sql.expression import ClauseElement
from sqlalchemy import create_engine
class procedure(ClauseElement):
   supports_execution = True

I just modified the compile to return just the procedure name and the

It appears this is some issue with ibm_db_dbi.  I tried it using just 
the ibm_db_dbi calls and no SA and get the same error msg:


CLI0150E  Driver not capable.

Explanation:

The operation is valid but not supported by either the driver or the
data source.

User response:

Specify a valid operation.

I was able to get it working from just the ibm_db_dbi interface - the 
actual call has to be:


cursor.callproc('BILLING.subscriber_balance',(subid,balance))

these both cause the sql errors:

cursor.callproc('BILLING.subscriber_balance',(1000,0))
cursor.callproc('BILLING.subscriber_balance',(1000,balance))

The compiler.process(literal you suggested results in CALL 
BILLING.subscriber_balance(?,?)(?,?).  I tried changing it to just
return element.name and get just CALL BILLING.subscriber_balance(  ) 
sent to the DB.  How can I get the return cursor.callproc(statement,

not a cursor/set.
