Thanks very much for pointing to right direction. So all i had to do is using *sqlalchemy.ext.mutable *to make the *ARRAY *type mutable. I did a little example code works fine with *psycopg2* -
import sqlalchemy as sa import sqlalchemy.event as event import sqlalchemy.orm as orm import sqlalchemy.ext.mutable as mutable import sqlalchemy.ext.declarative as declarative Base = declarative.declarative_base() engine = sa.create_engine('postgresql+psycopg2://eg_services:eg.services@localhost:5432/test_eg_services_db', echo=True) session = orm.sessionmaker(bind=engine)() class TestArrayTable(Base): __tablename__ = 'test_array_table' id = sa.Column(sa.Integer(), primary_key=True) values = sa.Column(mutable.MutableList.as_mutable(sa.ARRAY(sa.Integer())), nullable=False) def __str__(self): return '{} : {}'.format(self.id, self.values) @event.listens_for(TestArrayTable, 'after_insert') def after_insert(mapper, connection, target): print('Adding --> {}'.format(target)) @event.listens_for(TestArrayTable, 'after_update') def after_update(mapper, connection, target): print('Updating --> {}'.format(target)) Base.metadata.create_all(bind=engine) test = TestArrayTable() test.values = [x for x in range(5)] session.add(test) session.flush() for x in range(5, 10): test.values.append(x) session.flush() Thanks again - Asif Mahmud Shimon On Mon, Mar 13, 2017 at 7:12 PM mike bayer <mike...@zzzcomputing.com> wrote: > ARRAY needs mutability to detect appends: > > > http://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/latest/orm/extensions/mutable.html?highlight=mutable#sqlalchemy.ext.mutable.MutableList > > > > On 03/12/2017 06:59 AM, Asif Mahmud wrote: > > Hi, > > I'm not sure if it's a bug or I'm missing something.
