Hi,
As I ran into the same kind of problem some times ago, you should take a
look at mapper or session extensions.
As an example, you could take a look at MapperExtension and add some
methods like
class MyModelExtension(MapperExtension):
def before_insert(self, mapper, connection, instance):
some kind
of code
def after_insert(self, mapper, connection, instance):
some kind
of code
def after_delete(self, mapper, connection, instance):
some kind
of code
and a Declarative Model like this:
class MyModel(Base):
__tablename__ = 'mymodel_table'
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
slug = Column('type', String(50))
...
__mapper_args__ = {'extension': MyModelExtension()}
Then everything should be OK
Regards,
Laurent
