say you want to filter on the 'field' (field would be a string representing the name of the field) on objects of class == Klass

field_attr = getattr(Klass, field)

 would give you the instrumented attribute

then

Session.query(Klass).filter(field_attr == searchString)

or

Session.query(Klass).filter(field_attr.endswith(searchString))

would run

Alternatively if you are only interested in equality you can skip the getattr and use filter_by in combination with python's keyword argument handling:

    Session.query(klass).filter_by(**{field: value})

Wichert.
