Dear all,

For maintenance purposes I have aiming to ensure that ALL database
constraint have an explicit name (as recommended here as well:
http://alembic.readthedocs.org/en/latest/naming.html)

With the NOT NULL constraints this can be done by adding an explicit
CheckConstraint. However at least for Oracle the database ends up with
one constraint which is added by the Primary Key. Is there a way to
either avoid this automated creation (and add the NOT NULL constraint
manually) or if not; is it possible to explicitly provide a name for
this constraint?

class Example(Base):
    __tablename__ = "example"
    __table_args__ = (
        PrimaryKeyConstraint("entry_id", name="example_pk"),
        CheckConstraint('"ENTRY_ID" IS NOT NULL',
        name="example_entry_nn"))

    id = Column("entry_id", Integer)
    name = Column(String(64))

(not claiming the explicit not null constraint is the prettiest, but it
does give the result I am after)

When looking at this database SQL Developer indicates these constraints:

EXAMPLE_PK         Primary_Key
EXAMPLE_ENTRY_NN   Check        "ENTRY_ID" IS NOT NULL
SYS_C00109085      Check        "ENTRY_ID" IS NOT NULL

Question is how to get rid of the constraint with the generated name
(SYS_C00109085)...

Thanks in advance,

Thijs
