SQLAlchemy/Zope2 transaction integration
Project description
The lead part of the alchemist’s toolkit.
Yes, it’s Yet Another SQLAlchemy/Zope Integration Package. I’m sorry, I really am. Many thanks to Andreas Jung for z3c.sqlalchemy and Kapil Thangavelu for ore.alchemist. I borrowed the Zope transaction data manager code from Andreas who borrowed it from Kapil, I believe.
The purpose of this package is to be the lead part and the lead part only. The gold-making bit is left to SQLAlchemy. That means that are no abstractions or lazy initialisaion or table auto-detection for building SQLAlchemy table metadata and mappers, no generation of Zope 3 interfaces, no CRUD operations, and no dancing polar bears.
You need to understand SQLAlchemy for this package and this README to make any sense. See http://sqlalchemy.org/doc.
The use case
You want SQLAlchemy
You want to look up database connections/sessions as named utilities
You want to use simple domain/mapper classes, with no particular dependencies
You don’t want to worry about transaction and connection handling
You want to be able to configure SQL connection parameters at run-time, e.g. in the ZODB. Well, you don’t have to, but it’s nice to have the option.
