SQLAlchemy Turns Python Objects Into Database Entries
Ғылым және технология
Today we learn about SQLAlchemy, which is an SQL Toolkit and ORM that allows us to map Python classes to database tables.

One of the best channels in youtube! Thanks for your work!!!
Very clean and easy to understand, thanks for the video. Just a small hint: at 18:51 you couldn't see the table, bc the database windows won't refresh automatically in PyCharm. You have to click the refresh button at the top of the panel (third symbol in ur case). Then it will show the additionally created tables.
Ive watched this video sooooo many times! Brilliant tutorial on using SQLAlchemy to abstract SQL from python. I also loved your CLASSES video! Its helped me develop my code so much faster. Cheers dude!"
Very great article. Short, distinct on the point - Thank you!
Nicely done. Simple and effective example that immediately clarified proper structure.
One of the imports used is deprecated. For SQLAlchemy 2.0.10 the import for the declarative_base needs to look like this: from sqlalchemy.orm import declarative_base

Thanks! Very clear, easy to follow, learned enough to get me started!
stright to the point..awesome man
Clear and informative video. I have just started to learn orm and sqlalchemy and this video is superb. Thanks for sharing.
This has been an awesome tutorial TY, I learned enough to continue my project ! Geatings from colombia !
Thank you very much for the help! :^) At 14:00 you could also use results = session.query(Person).filter(Person.lastname == "Smith").all() with the .all() at the end you select every element fitting to the filter!

Great video! I currently create and update SQL rows by calling stored procedures. I want to give SQLAlchemy a try.
This is a treasure! Thank you so much!
this video has saved me a lot of time. thanks for your work :*
really great session , everything is clear and easy to understand. thank you...
Excellent tutorial. Thank you for the content.
1:09 this is exactly what I was looking for. THANK YOU!
superb I'm gonna present this in my advanced python class for my classmates.
damn, you're tutorials are way too advanced, Lots of love man!!
Hey man solid video, but should add a note that you are, in fact, using the legacy (albeit backward compatible) syntax here. Mapped_column() is now the new factory function for the Column() class
This was very well explained.
Another great video. You are such a good teacher, while your style of explaining things seems so effortless.
In the last query execution it results out the object of respective classes. In the iteration of the loop, print(r) displayed both classes __repr__ method string format
Thanks. That helped a lot!
Informative thanks!
Isn‘t the use of Column legacy? I know this video is 8 months old. I think a better way is to use: first_name: Mapped[str] = mapped_column(String, nullable=True)…. If the information are optional one can use Optional from the typing library
Thank you for this video, I was looking for soft introduction to sqlalchemy. Their documentation is quite difficult and their quick start actually don’t show the easiest ways to use it
thanks. fantastic video!
great video keep it up!
Thank you man.
So with this I am now writing data from a PLC to a database to keep records for longer periods of time with out having to hold the data or do the logic inside of the PLC, thanks so much!

If anybody is getting a warning saying: "Deprecated API features detected! These feature(s) are not compatible with SQLAlchemy 2.0." you can fix it by changing "from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base" to "from sqlalchemy.orm import declarative_base"
Bruh, I had no idea you could do this with SQLAlchemy. I use SQL a lot and always hated writing qries on Python

This would also be awesome for teaching/learning SQL. You can tell SQLAlchemy what you want to do, and use the output to learn how to do it in SQL.
Actually the reason why people call it sequel instead of SQL is because at first it was SEQL Structured English Query Language but then they skiped the E.
At 13:55, you can add .all() at the end to return a list of the results, instead of iterating over them and printing: results = session.query(Person).filter(Person.lastname == "Blue").all()
Your video gives a good introduction to SQLalchemy. I would like to make one comment though. As far as I know best practice for table creation is to use singular nouns and not pural names. It would be also easier if the object name and the table name is the same. So in your example it would have been better e.g. to use for class Person __tablename__ = "person".
Great Help
Can we create an engine if are database user only has Create, Drop, Delete permissions, or does our database user need to have All permissions set up?
Nice and simple
Hello, i have the same problem like you, when i add a table the base.metadata.create_all() dosnt create the table, how to solve that ? In a poppulated database is not a option to delete the db, i used alembic but some times dosnt generate the revision file with the changes.
Thank you.
this alchemy is the dope for us olderfarts trying to createwhile learning something to use -and hopefully rebuild some monstrosity i built in excel way back ..lol.. +
I am thinking of making a similar module for my own project.
from sqlalchemy import inspect inspector = inspect(engine) if not inspector.has_table('DB'): Base.metadata.create_all(engine)
Thank you bro
Nice!
what if I have 5000 entries to insert? Is there any batch way, like a loop to read data from csv and add to the SQL DB or any other less manual way?

Nice video! The model constructors are generated automatically by sqlalchemy.
can you use it with routes
Question: At around 7:00 the variable "firstname" defined inside the class is also defined as a variable in the constructor __init__ method. Usually, a class attribute can be called with self. ... , so is the init method overwriting the column definition or is the self.firstname call non-unique?
@benshapiro9731

In python there is a distinction between and instance attribute and class attribute. The class attribute is in the class’s __dict__ while the instance attr is in the instance’s __dict__. Sql alchemy’s major flaw is that it relies on this approach instead of a more pythonic one
Maybe you should use Jupyter notebook to avoid deleting the database every time running the code.
Quick Question: How can we have multiple databases made and used? reason for asking is to create the microservice architecture environment.
good stuff
very helpull thanks a lot but in the constructor of the object i use def __init__(self,**kwargs): self.__dict__.update((k, v) for k, v in kwargs.items()) when an object contains a lot of attributes
Perfect
Could you share the code you write in the tutorial?
Is it possible to use sqlalchemy for more advanced sql queries? For example, I mean joining, subqueries or CVEs. Also how to do queries on views?
@konjikiyami7301
Жыл бұрын
Yes, you can use SQLAlchemy to perform advanced queries, and you can further customize the Python models, relationships, etc. If you find that the syntax of a query gets challenging in SQLAlchemy (has happened to me a few times), it also provides methods for you to be able to write the raw SQL yourself, and have the engine execute the query. I generally just wrote raw SQL when having to query views, though I admit most of my usecases did not need views, so I never dove too far with them.

I think you just have to add autoincrement attribute when specifying the id column: eg: id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True, autoincrement=True)
In this, you are creating your Engine in one file What am I to do if I have Classes in separate files? I assume I'm not to make multiple Engines for each Class and I'm not entirely sure how I make one engine for everything outside of the scope of the single file. I intend to use the async variation of this and multiple users will be potentially calling things.

Create the engine and session, create functions returning pointers to each (eg, GetEngine()) , save as "db . py". In another file: import db import db engine = db.GetEngine() session = db.GetSession()
UserWarning: pandas only supports SQLAlchemy connectable (engine/connection) or database string URI or sqlite3 DBAPI2 connection. Other DBAPI2 objects are not tested. Please consider using SQLAlchemy. MD_agric_df = pd.read_sql_query(text(sql_query), connection) i got this error guys hope someone help ASAP in my jupyter notebook please
thx
re-writing __init__ function is useless if you don't implement custom behaviors within it and is only prone to raise errors

Yes, of course. You can use this for an easier way to read and write persistent data. Fast-changing data, such as the position of an opponent, is stored in RAM, while slower-changing and longer-term data, such as a high score table, is stored in a database. To work with the database, you can use SQAlchemy
