I'm new to Python and am trying to get a sense of SQLAlchemy, particularly how to get it to work with our database infrastructure. I followed the Shard tutorial but didn't find it helpful for a beginner switching to this infrastructure.
We have a central database that stores the locations of our shards. I would like to create a class that initiates a connection to the Central database only when necessary. As well as one that connects directly to a specific shard when supplied with an id. For example: class Central(): def __init__(self): //Connect to Central DB class Shard(): def __init__(self,id): //Connect to Central DB and fetch the connection info for the shard that contains user with id //Connect to that shard What is the proper way of doing something like this? Any sample code is greatly appreciated. Thank you. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.
