oh, yeah for that recipe you'd have to use a flag on the mapper() called "batch=False". But don't use that, its inefficient.
So you can also create your type to detect a special value from the mapper extension: def before_insert(self, ....): instance.password = (instance.password, True) class MyType(...): ... def process_bind_param(self, value, dialect): if isinstance(value, tuple): return hasher.create(value[0], value[1]) .... But since this is really an instance-level business rule, a straight descriptor and no custom type is definitely how I'd go on this one.
