API

This module expose a single function load(ModelBase, session, fixture_text)

Where:

• ModelBase is SQLAlchemy declarative base

• session is SQLAlchemy session

• fixture_text is a string containg the YAML fixtures

from sqlalchemy import create_engine
from sqlalchemy import Column, Integer, String
from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base
from sqlalchemy.orm import Session

import sqla_yaml_fixtures

BaseModel = declarative_base()

class User(BaseModel):
    __tablename__ = 'user'
    id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
    username = Column(String(150), nullable=False, unique=True)
    email = Column(String(254), unique=True)


def main():
    engine = create_engine('sqlite://')
    BaseModel.metadata.create_all(engine)
    connection = engine.connect()
    session = Session(bind=connection)

    fixture = """
    - User:
      - username: deedee
        email: deedee@example.com
      - username: joey
        email: joey@example.commit
    """
    sqla_yaml_fixtures.load(BaseModel, session, fixture)

    print('\n'.join(u.username for u in session.query(User).all()))

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

Note: the load() function performs a session.commit().

load() returns an instance of Store. Using this object get() method you can passing a key as argument you get a reference to the object added into the database. This is useful to easily get attributes that are generated by the database.

store = sqla_yaml_fixtures.load(BaseModel, session, fixture)
my_obj = store.get('dee')
print('Created object id: {}'.format(my_obj.id))
