hi, how can put custom sql in a query? specifically in this code? the problem is with the order_by. i want to pass it some custom sql:
q = session.query(Student) sajoin = q.join_to('address') return q.select( sajoin, order_by="(ABS(address.lat - %s) + ABS(address.lon - %s))" % (lat,lon) ,limit=800 ) that doesnt work . this does: order_by=asc((address.c.lat - lat) + (address.c.lon - lon)) but it's not quite what i need--the manhattan distance.... and i'd like the results to be in my mapped objects so i can still do student.address.lat, etc. i've scoured the docs, but maybe i've missed something. any pointers? thanks. -brent --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.
