I have the following setup
class Content(Base):
"""Content object"""
__tablename__ = "content"
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
name = Column(Unicode(255),unique=True, nullable=False)
title = Column(Unicode(255))
body = Column(UnicodeText)
created = Column(DateTime, default=func.now())
modified = Column(DateTime, onupdate=func.now())
type = Column(String(20))
__mapper_args__ = {
'polymorphic_on':type,
'polymorphic_identity':'content',
'with_polymorphic':'*'
}
class Locality(Content):
__tablename__ = "local"
id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey('content.id'),primary_key=True)
city_name = Column(Unicode(80))
__mapper_args__ = {'polymorphic_identity':'city'}
Now I dropped the Locality table using alembic.
Each time I query Content, I get
AssertionError: No such polymorphic_identity 'city' is defined
How do I drop this polymorphic_identity
I got over this by applying MySQL 'delete from' command on the content through MySQL Console, finding those contents whose type is 'city'
delete from content where content.type='city';

Background
The documentation gives the following example of a parent-child-association being added by appending that association to p.children. The child is then accessed via p.children and I assume the other way is possible as well, i.e accessing the parent via c.parents.
class Association(Base):
__tablename__ = 'association'
left_id = Column(ForeignKey('left.id'), primary_key=True)
right_id = Column(ForeignKey('right.id'), primary_key=True)
extra_data = Column(String(50))
child = relationship("Child", back_populates="parents")
parent = relationship("Parent", back_populates="children")
class Parent(Base):
__tablename__ = 'left'
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
children = relationship("Association", back_populates="parent")
class Child(Base):
__tablename__ = 'right'
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
parents = relationship("Association", back_populates="child")
# create parent, append a child via association
p = Parent()
a = Association(extra_data="some data")
a.child = Child()
p.children.append(a)
# iterate through child objects via association, including association
# attributes
for assoc in p.children:
print(assoc.extra_data)
print(assoc.child)
Problem
I have three classes that are almost identical to those in the example:
class TopicSubcription(Base):
__tablename__ = 'topic_subscription'
topic_id = Column(ForeignKey('topic.id'), primary_key=True)
user_id = Column(ForeignKey('user.id'), primary_key=True)
subscription_date = Column('subscription_date', DateTime, nullable=True)
topic = relationship("Topic", back_populates="subscribed_users")
user = relationship("User", back_populates="followed_topics")
class Topic(Base):
__tablename__ = 'left'
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
subscribed_users = relationship("Association", back_populates="topic")
class User(Base):
__tablename__ = 'right'
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
followed_topics = relationship("Association", back_populates="user")
but when I run the following I get a NotNullViolation error stating that user_id violates not-null constaint.
u: User = session.query(User).filter(User.id == 'example_id1').one()
t: Topic = session.query(Topic).filter(Topic.id == 'example_id2').one()
sub = TopicSubscription(func.now())
sub.topic = t
u.followed_topics.append(sub)
session.add(u)
session.commit()
Question
Am I misinterpreting the documentation or is it wrong?
I had something quite similar just now and was going crazy trying to work it out. Abstracting to the parent/child example from the docs, what worked in my case was:
p = Parent()
a = Association(parent=p, extra_data="some data")
a.child = Child()
p.children.append(a)
I have this schema:
class Company(db.Model):
__tablename__ = 'companies'
id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
name = db.Column(db.String(250), nullable=True, default=None)
domain = db.Column(db.String(250), nullable=True, default=None)
organization_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('organizations.id'), nullable=False)
class Contact(db.Model):
__tablename__ = 'contacts'
id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
name = db.Column(db.String(250), nullable=True, default=None)
email = db.Column(db.String(250), nullable=False)
company_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('companies.id'), nullable=True, default=None)
company = relationship('Company')
organization_id = db.Column({Import Company.organization_id as eager})
The last line is of course garbage, but it's to show the idea:
I'd like to have the value "organization_id" available in Contact, even though it's not present in the table "contacts", but since it's present in "companies", is there a way to ask SQLAlchemy to load the value from "companies" via a JOIN, and affect it to "contacts" as a read-only value?
That way, when I search for a contact, for instance :
contact = Contact.query.filter(Contact.email = 'test#test.com').first()
print(contact.organization_id) # => 1
Thank you.
You can use the hybrid_property decorator to define an attribute on your class:
class Contact(db.Model):
...
#hybrid_property
def organization_id(self):
return self.company.organization_id if self.company else None
Using contact.organization_id will load the company using the foreign key relationship.
So I'm building an app and I'm trying to save new changes to my database but when I try to commit the changes in the flask using db.session.commit() it returns me the following error:
sqlalchemy.exc.NoReferencedTableError: Foreign key associated with column 'products.country_id' could not find table 'countries' with which to generate a foreign key to target column 'id'
In my models.py I have the following:
from app import db
from . import db
from datetime import datetime
def now():
return datetime.now()
class Countries(db.Model):
__tablename__ = 'countries'
__table_args__ = {'schema': 'products_data'}
id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True, unique=True, autoincrement=True)
name = db.Column(db.String(255))
code = db.Column(db.String(45))
def __repr__(self):
return f'Id {self.id}'
class Categories(db.Model):
__tablename__ = 'categories'
__table_args__ = {'schema': 'products_data'}
id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True, unique=True, autoincrement=True)
name = db.Column(db.String(255))
def __repr__(self):
return f'Id {self.id}'
class Brands(db.Model):
__tablename__ = 'brands'
__table_args__ = {'schema': 'products_data'}
id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True, unique=True, autoincrement=True)
name = db.Column(db.String(255))
logo = db.Column(db.String(5000))
feed = db.Column(db.String(5000))
feed_type = db.Column(db.String(45))
category_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('categories.id'))
country_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('countries.id'))
awinmid = db.Column(db.Integer)
def __repr__(self):
return f'Id {self.id}'
class Products(db.Model):
__tablename__ = 'products'
__table_args__ = {'schema': 'products_data'}
id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True, unique=True, autoincrement=True)
name = db.Column(db.String(255))
url = db.Column(db.Text)
category_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('categories.id'))
country_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('countries.id'))
price = db.Column(db.Float)
currency = db.Column(db.String(45))
discount_price = db.Column(db.Float)
shipping = db.Column(db.Float)
brand_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('brands.id'))
Am I doing anything wrong when associating a column in products with a foreign key? This is the first time I encounter this error so I'm really lost on what to do right now.
To fix I just added the schema to the db.ForeignKey and it worked
Example:
db.ForeignKey('products_data.countries.id')
PS:
Not my idea. Just wanted to post the answer in case someone visits the post later with the same problem.
Gord Thompson thanks for the help!
First of all, I don t see any table Categories. Secondly, you copy pasted your schema from the Products table into your Countries one.
PS: By default sqlalchemy gives the tables the name of the class (lower cased). So your __tablename__='products' does nothing actually.
EDIT:
The problem with your code lies in how you set the __table_args__ attribute. You assign an object to it, which by their specifications is wrong.
Take a look at the following example and modify your code accordingly
__table_args__ = ({'schema': 'products_data'})
Also for further reference, take a look at this https://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/13/orm/extensions/declarative/table_config.html
I'm trying to make a self-referential many-to-many relationship (it means that Line can have many parent lines and many child lines) in sqlalchemy like this:
Base = declarative_base()
class Association(Base):
__tablename__ = 'association'
prev_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey('line.id'), primary_key=True)
next_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey('line.id'), primary_key=True)
class Line(Base):
__tablename__ = 'line'
id = Column(Integer, primary_key = True)
text = Column(Text)
condition = Column(Text)
action = Column(Text)
next_lines = relationship(Association, backref="prev_lines")
class Root(Base):
__tablename__ = 'root'
name = Column(String, primary_key = True)
start_line_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey('line.id'))
start_line = relationship('Line')
But I get the following error:
sqlalchemy.exc.ArgumentError: Could not determine join condition between parent/
child tables on relationship Line.next_lines. Specify a 'primaryjoin' expressio
n. If 'secondary' is present, 'secondaryjoin' is needed as well.
Do you know how I could remedy this?
You should just need:
prev_lines = relationship(
Association,
backref="next_lines",
primaryjoin=id==Association.prev_id)
Since this specifies the next_lines back reference there is no need to have a next_lines relationship.
You can also do this using the remote_side parameter to a relationship: http://www.sqlalchemy.org/trac/browser/examples/adjacency_list/adjacency_list.py
The title may be not exactly, but I don't know how to express it.
I have 3 class: User, Question, Answer. The simple code is:
Session = scoped_session(sessionmaker())
Base = declarative_base()
class User(Base):
__tablename__ = 'users'
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
questions = relationship('Question', backref="user")
answers = relationship('Answer', backref="user")
class Question(Base):
__tablename__ = 'questions'
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
user_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey('users.id'))
answers = relationship('Answer', backref="user")
class Answer(Base):
__tablename__ = 'answers'
user_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey('users.id'))
question_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey('questions.id'))
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
Now, A user asked a question, so there will be an answer created:
user = get_user_from_session()
question = get_question(question_id)
# create answer
answer = Answer()
answer.user = user
answer.question = question
Session.add(answer) # !!!
Session.commit()
I hope the answer will be inserted to database, but unfortunately, there is an error reported:
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute '_sa_instance_state'
Is there something I've missed? How to fix it?
UPDATE
Thanks for #dhaffey, I've fixed the typos. I recreate a test file to test this, found no error happened again, but answer.user_id and answer.question_id are null in database after commit.
This is my code, you can run it directly.
from sqlalchemy import *
from sqlalchemy.orm import *
from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import *
engine = create_engine('sqlite:///test.sqlite', echo=True)

class User(Base):
__tablename__ = 'users'
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
name = Column(String)
questions = relationship('Question')
answers = relationship('Answer')
class Question(Base):
__tablename__ = 'questions'
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
user_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey('users.id'))
title = Column(String)
answers = relationship('Answer')
class Answer(Base):
__tablename__ = 'answers'
user_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey('users.id'))
question_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey('questions.id'))
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
Base.metadata.create_all()
user = User()
user.name = 'aaa'
Session.add(user)
Session.flush()
question = Question()
question.title = 'ttt'
question.user = user
Session.add(question)
Session.flush()
answer = Answer()
answer.user = user
answer.question = question
Session.add(answer)
Session.commit()
print answer.id # not None
found = Session.query(Answer).filter_by(id=answer.id).one()
print found.user.name # not None
print found.question.title # not None
# !!! It seems all models are saved correctly,
# but please open the test.sqlite database, (not querying by sqlahchemy)
# the question.user_id and answer.user_id and answer.question_id are null
Your class declarations don't "compile" for me, so I'm wondering if you've run this code, and which SQLAlchemy version you're using if so. The line
user_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey='users.id')
raises
sqlalchemy.exc.ArgumentError: Unknown arguments passed to Column: ['ForeignKey']
with SQLAlchemy 0.6.4. You're trying to declare the foreign key with a keyword argument, but the correct usage is to construct a ForeignKey object and pass it positionally, like this:
user_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey('users.id'))
With the foreign keys fixed, your example works as expected for me.
Note that you don't need to explicitly provide the primaryjoin argument on these relationships when the corresponding foreign keys are appropriately declared - SQLAlchemy infers the correct join.
