Re: [sqlalchemy] How to define metaclass for a class that extends from sqlalchemy declarative base ?
The problem with using Mixins is that you need to know the definition of columns already for creating the mixin class. What I am trying to do is more like get the definition dynamically on the fly.Take a look at this: def get_properties(tablename, map): table_inspector = reflection.Inspector.from_engine(DB_ENGINE.connect()) table = Table(tablename, metadata) table_inspector.reflecttable(table, None) columns = [] for child in table.get_children(): if isinstance(child, Column): column = list(child.base_columns)[0] column.table = None columns.append(column) return dict([(map[column.key], column) for column in columns]) class CustomDeclarativeMeta(DeclarativeMeta): def __new__(cls, name, bases, attrs): attrs.update(get_properties(attrs.get('__tablename__'), attrs.get('__map__'))) return super(CustomDeclarativeMeta, cls).__new__(cls, name, bases, attrs) # Base = declarative_base(metaclass=CustomDeclarativeMeta) Base = declarative_base() class Enum_SampleBase): __tablename__ = 'Enum_Sample' __table_args__ = {'useexisting': True} __metaclass__ = CustomDeclarativeMeta __map__ = {'Id': 'id', 'Name': 'name', 'Description': 'description', 'IsActive': 'is_active'} def __init__(self, id, name, description, is_active): self.id = id self.name = name self.description = description self.is_active = is_active def __repr__(self): return (%d, '%s', '%s', %r) % (self.id, self.name, self.description, self.isactive) Unfortunately, this isn't working.

Re: [sqlalchemy] How to define metaclass for a class that extends from sqlalchemy declarative base ?
I tried your example in sqlalchemy 0.6 by manually plugging in api.py library (attached) that I got from herehttps://bitbucket.org/miracle2k/sqlalchemy/src/2d28ed97d3221a133b4b297a229deb294088affe/lib/sqlalchemy/ext/declarative/api.py?at=default .

Re: [sqlalchemy] How to define metaclass for a class that extends from sqlalchemy declarative base ?
your metaclass must derive from the DeclarativeMeta class. Also, I disagree that you need this metaclass, what you're trying to do is very easy using mixins, which are supported in version 0.6: http://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/rel_0_6/orm/extensions/declarative.html#mixing-in-columns On Jul 3, 2013, at 12:44 AM, Ven Karri praveen.venk...@gmail.com wrote: I use: Python 2.6 and sqlalchemy 0.6.1 This is what I am trying to do: from sqlalchemy.types import ( Integer, String, Boolean ) from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base Base = declarative_base() class SampleMeta(type): def __new__(cls, name, bases, attrs): attrs.update({ 'id': Column('Id', Integer, primary_key=True), 'name': Column('Name', String), 'description': Column('Description', String), 'is_active': Column('IsActive', Boolean) }) return super(SampleMeta, cls).__new__(cls, name, bases, attrs) class Sample(Base): __tablename__ = 'Sample' __table_args__ = {'useexisting': True} __metaclass__ = SampleMeta def __init__(self, id, name, description, is_active): self.id = id self.name = name self.description = description self.is_active = is_active def __repr__(self): return (%d, '%s', '%s', %r) % (self.id, self.name, self.description, self.isactive) And the error I am getting is this: TypeError: Error when calling the metaclass bases metaclass conflict: the metaclass of a derived class must be a (non-strict) subclass of the metaclasses of all its bases Now, if I do the same thing above by using class Sample(object) instead of class Sample(Base) it works absolutely fine. I need to update the attributes of the class dynamically. So, I will be using dynamic attribute and column names.
