Thanks Simon -- that's what I was missing.

Think of the database structure that you've got: your "creators" table has
"id", "creator" and "company_id" columns. "company_id" is a foreign key
pointing at the "id" column of the "companies" table.
This means that a single row in the "creators" table c
Simon, your idea about putting together a script is a good one. Please see
the attached. I think all these errors are related but I'm scratching my
head about what the problem is.
The reason I use self.creator[0] versus self.creator is for aesthetics.
And, to your point about creator not being
I think you may be confused about the relationship properties you have
here. As far as I can tell, a Creator can have many companies, but
each Company has only one creator, correct? So Company.creator should
only ever be an instance of Creator (or None), whereas
Creator.companies should be a list.
I'm afraid there are still some bugs in here that hopefully you can help
with.
class Creator(Base):
__tablename__ = "creators"
id = Column(Integer, primary_key = True)
company_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey('companies.id'))
creator = Column(String(100), nullable=False, unique=Tru
Very helpful, thanks Tim :)

Ad, one more try:
existing_creator = DBSession.query(Creator).filter_by(name=creator).first()

Sorry, that should have been:
existing_creator = DBSession(Creator).query.filter_by(creator=creator).first()

It's not the append that's causing the error, it's the fact that you're
creating a new Creator() instance, which ultimately results in an INSERT
statement being issued.
You want to append a Creator instance to `company.creator`, but you don't
necessarily want to make a new Creator every time y
Sorry I don't understand what you're trying to say.
If the Creator already exists, and I'm to append it again, isn't that the
same as what my code is currently doing? (That is, appending in every
instance.) I don't see how this wouldn't result in the same error message.
And what would it mean
In `Company.__init__()`, instead of blindly creating a new `Creator` instance,
you need to first query for an existing Creator with that name. If it exists,
append it, otherwise, create a new one and append that.
