Re: [sqlalchemy] polymorphic inheritance and unique constraints
hello Mike! so ... ok, based on this link http://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/latest/faq/ormconfiguration.html#i-m-getting-a-warning-or-error-about-implicitly-combining-column-x-under-attribute-y (yeah yeah, well, rtfm for me), I was able to make it work like this: code class ContainerInstance(CoreMixin, TimestampMixin): container_instance_id = CoreMixin.column_id() parent_id = CoreMixin.column_fk(container_instance_id, nullable=False) batch_id = CoreMixin.column_fk(Batch.id_, nullable=False) container_instance_type = Column(EnumDictForInt(ContainerInstanceEnum), nullable=False, index=True) __mapper_args__ = { polymorphic_on: container_instance_type, polymorphic_identity: ContainerInstanceEnum.NONE } class ContainerAggregation(ContainerInstance): container_instance_id = CoreMixin.column_fk(ContainerInstance.id_, primary_key=True) container_descriptor_id = CoreMixin.column_fk(ContainerDescriptor.id_, nullable=False) # tada! batch_id = column_property(Column(BigInteger), ContainerInstance.batch_id) __mapper_args__ = { polymorphic_identity: ContainerInstanceEnum.AGGREGATION } UniqueConstraint(ContainerAggregation.container_descriptor_id, ContainerAggregation.batch_id) /code which brings me the question: I'm targeting *only* postgresql, so I have no need to pursue an agnostic approach in terms of inheritance. i do know that postgres inheritance system was discussed a lot in here, but, in my case - where i do want to have a constraint between parent and children - isn't it better to use postgres inheritance instead of duplicating the value to another table? well, i did notice the sqlalchemy example of postgres inheritance https://bitbucket.org/zzzeek/sqlalchemy/wiki/UsageRecipes/PostgreSQLInheritance, which uses written ddl and triggers. the problem is that i have extra fields in the inheritance table, which I think it is not a very good approach to postgres inheritance, but, either way, from your experience, what would be your tip? ps: i found this link http://postgresql.nabble.com/Constraint-to-ensure-value-does-NOT-exist-in-another-table-td4493651.html interesting and may be another solution to this, since i already have a table descriptor (the polymorphic_on expression). of course, the approach does require an extra table, but with events I can easily make it work in sqlalchemy. cheers, richard.

well, i'm almost given up ... i'm using concrete now, but it seems that something isn't right. the error: sqlalchemy.exc.ArgumentError: When configuring property 'updated_by' on Mapper|ContainerInstance|pjoin, column 'container_instance.fk_updated_by' is not represented in the mapper's table. Use the `column_property()` function to force this column to be mapped as a read-only attribute. now, what makes me a little hopeless: 1. i have a base object (a simple object), that have some attributes that i want in ALL of my tables (created_at, updated_at, created_by, upated_by), which all of them are @declared_attr; 2. my base object is a declarative_base which uses the object above described as the cls parameter; 3. then, i inherit AbstractConcreteBase and my declarative object to the parent class, having all FKs in it as @declared_attr too; 4. from bla import *, exception. ps: using ConcreteBase, the error is: AttributeError: type object 'ContainerInstance' has no attribute '__mapper__' On 04/15/2015 03:13 PM, Richard Gerd Kuesters wrote: oh, right, concrete! abstract concrete can also do the trick?

Re: [sqlalchemy] polymorphic inheritance and unique constraints
yup, i know (this pattern) it is not ideal; i was just testing the new features of sa 1.0 regarding postgres (since i'm actually hands-on). i should rewrite a whole part of my model (and listeners and extensions and so on), which are already working with polymorphism. i will change this pattern, but for now i had to know where i can go with those features to reach any other gain in postgres. i listed my steps in 1,2,3,4 so it's easier to spot where my mistake was (because i was sure it was mine). :) when i got the time this kind of implementation deserves, then i'll hook up on rewriting the model. thanks for the support and sorry if this wasted your time! cheers, richard.

[sqlalchemy] polymorphic inheritance and unique constraints
hi all! i'm dealing with a little problem here. i have a parent table and its two inheritances. there is a value that both children have and must be unique along either types. is there a way to move this column to the parent and use a constraint in the child? my implementation is postgres 9.4+ with psycopg2 only. as a simple example (i'm just creating this example to simplify things), this works: class MyParent(Base): foo_id = Column(Integer, Sequence('foo_id_seq'), primary_key=True) foo_name = Column(Unicode(64), nullable=False) foo_type = Column(Integer, nullable=False) __mapper_args__ = { polymorphic_on: foo_type, polymorphic_identity: 0 } class MyChild1(MyParent): foo_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey(MyParent.foo_id), primary_key=True) bar_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey(AnotherEntity.bar_id), nullable=False) child1_specific_name = Column(Unicode(5), nullable=False) child1_baz_stuff = Column(Boolean, default=False) __mapper_args__ = { polymorphic_identity: 1 } __table_args__ = ( UniqueConstraint(bar_id, child1_specific_name,), # works, bar_id is in MyChild1 ) class MyChild2(MyParent): foo_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey(MyParent.foo_id), primary_key=True) bar_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey(AnotherEntity.bar_id), nullable=False) child2_specific_code = Column(UUID, nullable=False) child2_baz_stuff = Column(Float, nullable=False) __mapper_args__ = { polymorphic_identity: 2 } __table_args__ = ( UniqueConstraint(bar_id, child2_specific_code,), # works, bar_id is in MyChild2 ) but i would like to do this, if possible: class MyParent(Base): foo_id = Column(Integer, Sequence('foo_id_seq'), primary_key=True) foo_name = Column(Unicode(64), nullable=False) foo_type = Column(Integer, nullable=False) bar_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey(AnotherEntity.bar_id), nullable=False) # since both child uses bar_id, why not having it on the parent? __mapper_args__ = { polymorphic_on: foo_type, polymorphic_identity: 0 } class MyChild1(MyParent): foo_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey(MyParent.foo_id), primary_key=True) child1_specific_name = Column(Unicode(5), nullable=False) child1_baz_stuff = Column(Boolean, default=False) __mapper_args__ = { polymorphic_identity: 1 } __table_args__ = ( UniqueConstraint(MyParent.bar_id, child1_specific_name,), # will it work? ) class MyChild2(MyParent): foo_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey(MyParent.foo_id), primary_key=True) child2_specific_code = Column(UUID, nullable=False) child2_baz_stuff = Column(Float, nullable=False) __mapper_args__ = { polymorphic_identity: 2 } __table_args__ = ( UniqueConstraint(MyParent.bar_id, child2_specific_code,), # will it work? ) well, will it work without being a concrete inheritance? :) best regards, richard. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups sqlalchemy group.

Re: [sqlalchemy] polymorphic inheritance and unique constraints
are these two separate constraints? I just looked and it seems like they are distinct. I just added a fix to 1.0 because someone was hacking around something similar to this. The easiest way to get these for the moment is just to create the UniqueConstraint outside of the class definition. class Foo(Base): # … class Bar(Foo): # … UniqueConstraint(Bar.x, Foo.y) that way all the columns are set up, should just work.

Re: [sqlalchemy] polymorphic inheritance and unique constraints
thanks again, Mike! just a question: to make the constraint in the parent, shouldn't i move other columns that composes the constraint to the parent too? cheers, richard.
