I need to delete the association table rows for many to many relationships
when I delete one, but the default behavior (to remove those rows) does not
seem to work in my case.
I have multiple levels of many to many relationships, as you can see in the
example I'll provide below and when I delete a "parent" afterwards I try to
clean up any children left behind that have no other parents. However,
these children are in many to many relationships with other children and
that's when the ORM fails to attempt to remove those children from their
related association tables (at least, in a way that I expect).
The issue is error is:
def do_executemany(self, cursor, statement, parameters, context=None):
if self.executemany_mode is EXECUTEMANY_DEFAULT:
> cursor.executemany(statement, parameters)
E sqlalchemy.exc.IntegrityError:
(psycopg2.errors.ForeignKeyViolation) update or delete on table
"test_var_region" violates foreign key constraint
"test_chain_var_region_var_region_id_fkey" on table "test_chain_var_region"
E DETAIL: Key (id)=(1) is still referenced from table

E (Background on this error at: http://sqlalche.me/e/gkpj)
The desired effect, of course, is that the rows in test_chain_var_region
that reference the deleted chains removed. I've tried several strategies
to do this but with no change in this behavior.
Cascades could be an issue, and I would rather handle removal of any
"orphan" rows in the model tables via business logic than have the database
cascade deletes and potentially remove rows that are associated with other
objects.
