You shouldn’t need to define the columns. Here’s another test script: ########################### import math
import sqlalchemy as sa import sqlalchemy.orm as saorm from sqlalchemy.ext.hybrid import hybrid_property from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base Base = declarative_base() engine = sa.create_engine('sqlite:///hybridtest.db') engine.execute(""" CREATE TABLE sample ( pk INTEGER NOT NULL, nsa_mstar FLOAT, PRIMARY KEY (pk) ) """) class Sample(Base): __tablename__ = 'sample' __table_args__ = {'autoload' : True, 'autoload_with': engine} @hybrid_property def nsa_logmstar(self): try: return math.log10(self.nsa_mstar) except ValueError: return -9999.0 except TypeError: return None @nsa_logmstar.expression def nsa_logmstar(cls): return sa.func.log(cls.nsa_mstar) if __name__ == '__main__': sm = saorm.sessionmaker() session = sm() print session.query(Sample.pk).filter(Sample.nsa_logmstar < 9) ########################### What database are you using, and what is your SQL table definition? Does your table already have a nsa_logmstar column?
