You use the "func" construct to invoke a function. This can be passed to an
execute() method directly where it should embed itself into a SELECT:
from sqlalchemy import func
result = engine.execute(func.name_of_my_pg_function(1, 2, 3))
Manipulation of cursors is not supported by SQLAlchemy beyond calling the basic
fetchone()/fetchmany()/fetchall() methods of DBAPI. If you need non-standard
cursor control methods like "scroll()", you can no longer use engine.execute()
and need to use psycopg2 cursors directly:
http://initd.org/psycopg/docs/cursor.html
To get at a psycopg2 cursor from a SQLAlchemy engine:
connection = engine.raw_connection()
cursor = connection.cursor()
Usage is then that described at http://initd.org/psycopg/docs/cursor.html
cursor.execute("SELECT my_pg_function(%(param1)s, %(param2)s,
%(param3)s)", {'param1':1, 'param2':2, 'param3':3})
hope this helps !
