Sorry for the very beginner question, but I haven't been able to find a good discussion of this issue online (possibly because it's too basic).
I'm using sqlalchemy as part of a basic web-based CRUD-style CMS. I've got the Create, Read and Delete parts down, but I'm not sure how best to handle the Update part. Because the update page handler functions are generic and reused for many different models, all I can be sure of is having a single object instance, and a dictionary of new values with which to update the instances attributes. All I can think of doing is instance.__dict__.update(value_dict) Which I've heard is not the way to do it, and also seems to be leaving out certain dictionary values in some cases. Is there an accepted way to handle these kinds of operations?
