Since your NewsOrg class does not override __init__, the default declarative __init__ is used, which takes only keyword arguments. This causes the "TypeError: __init__() takes exactly 1 argument (2 given)" error.
You can fix this by either adding an __init__ method to NewsOrg like this: def __init__(self, org=None, **kwargs): super(NewsOrg, self).__init__(**kwargs) self.org = org or, preferably, add a creator argument to association_proxy: orgs = association_proxy('newsorgs', 'org', creator=lambda org: NewsOrg(org=org)) You can find out more about the 'creator' argument at: http://www.sqlalchemy.org/docs/05/reference/ext/associationproxy.html#api -Conor --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.
