Hey list,
this sounds like it should be a FAQ, didn't find anything though:
I want to use the ORM in a declarative style and have the table
definition reflected, eg sth like:
class A(declarative_base()):
__tablename__ = 'A'
__table_args__ = {'autoload' : True}
However to do this SA (quite reasonably, really) already needs an
engine. For various reasons I can only construct one after import time
however. Is there a way to do a kind of "late reflection", ie. have
the above class definition but trigger the reflection part later? I
could of course generate the class object later in a function when the
engine is already available but maybe there's something more
elegant...
Many thanks,
peter.
