This is an unusual way to update an object that you've already retrieved:
result = session.query(Executions). \
filter_by(id=execution_id).first()
if result.end_date is None:
e =
update(Executions).where(Executions.id==bindparam("execution_id")). \
values(end_date=bindparam("now"))
self.connection.execute(e, execution_id=execution_id,
now=datetime.datetime.now())
It would be more natural to write it like this:
if result.end_date is None:
result.end_date = datetime.datetime.now()
session.flush()
Also, if "id" is the primary key on your Executions class, you can
write the first line as:
result = session.query(Executions).get(execution_id)
