Hi Heston, This is really a plain python question rather than an SQLAlchemy question. You might find this section of the python tutorial useful: http://docs.python.org/dev/tutorial/modules.html But basically, if you put the following code in a module called 'base.py': #--------------------------------------------------------- from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base from sqlalchemy import MetaData meta = MetaData() Base = declarative_base(metadata=meta) #--------------------------------------------------------- Then in your other modules you can write: #--------------------------------------------------------- import base class Post(base.Base): __tablename__ = 'post' # etc. #--------------------------------------------------------- Hope that helps, Simon --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.
