SQL Data Definition Language

Module ansisql – Standard SQL implementation

Extensions to SQLAlchemy for altering existing tables.

At the moment, this isn’t so much based off of ANSI as much as things that just happen to work with multiple databases.

class migrate.changeset.ansisql.ANSIColumnDropper(dialect, connection, **kw)

Extends ANSI SQL dropper for column dropping (ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN).

visit_column(column)

Drop a column from its table.

Parameters

column (sqlalchemy.Column) – the column object

class migrate.changeset.ansisql.ANSIColumnGenerator(dialect, connection, **kw)

Extends ansisql generator for column creation (alter table add col)

visit_column(column)

Create a column (table already exists).

Parameters

column (sqlalchemy.Column instance) – column object

class migrate.changeset.ansisql.ANSIConstraintCommon(dialect, connection, **kw)

Migrate’s constraints require a separate creation function from SA’s: Migrate’s constraints are created independently of a table; SA’s are created at the same time as the table.

get_constraint_name(cons)

Gets a name for the given constraint.

If the name is already set it will be used otherwise the constraint’s autoname method is used.

Parameters

cons – constraint object

class migrate.changeset.ansisql.ANSIConstraintDropper(dialect, connection, **kw)
class migrate.changeset.ansisql.ANSIConstraintGenerator(dialect, connection, **kw)
class migrate.changeset.ansisql.ANSIDialect(convert_unicode=False, encoding='utf-8', paramstyle=None, dbapi=None, implicit_returning=None, case_sensitive=True, supports_native_boolean=None, max_identifier_length=None, label_length=None, compiler_linting=0, server_side_cursors=False, **kwargs)

schemachanger

alias of migrate.changeset.ansisql.ANSISchemaChanger

class migrate.changeset.ansisql.ANSISchemaChanger(dialect, connection, **kw)

Manages changes to existing schema elements.

Note that columns are schema elements; ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN is in SchemaGenerator.

All items may be renamed. Columns can also have many of their properties - type, for example - changed.

Each function is passed a tuple, containing (object, name); where object is a type of object you’d expect for that function (ie. table for visit_table) and name is the object’s new name. NONE means the name is unchanged.

start_alter_column(table, col_name)

Starts ALTER COLUMN

visit_column(delta)

Rename/change a column.

visit_index(index)

Rename an index

visit_table(table)

Rename a table. Other ops aren’t supported.

class migrate.changeset.ansisql.AlterTableVisitor(dialect, connection, **kw)

Common operations for ALTER TABLE statements.

append(s)

Append content to the SchemaIterator’s query buffer.

execute()

Execute the contents of the SchemaIterator’s buffer.

start_alter_table(param)

Returns the start of an ALTER TABLE SQL-Statement.

Use the param object to determine the table name and use it for building the SQL statement.

Parameters

param (sqlalchemy.Column, sqlalchemy.Index, sqlalchemy.schema.Constraint, sqlalchemy.Table, or string (table name)) – object to determine the table from

Module constraint – Constraint schema migration API

This module defines standalone schema constraint classes.

class migrate.changeset.constraint.CheckConstraint(sqltext, *args, **kwargs)

Bases: migrate.changeset.constraint.ConstraintChangeset, sqlalchemy.sql.schema.CheckConstraint

Construct CheckConstraint

Migrate’s additional parameters:

Parameters
  • sqltext (string) – Plain SQL text to check condition

  • columns (list of Columns instances) – If not name is applied, you must supply this kw to autoname constraint

  • table (Table instance) – If columns are passed as strings, this kw is required

classmethod argument_for(dialect_name, argument_name, default)

Add a new kind of dialect-specific keyword argument for this class.

E.g.:

Index.argument_for("mydialect", "length", None)

some_index = Index('a', 'b', mydialect_length=5)

The DialectKWArgs.argument_for() method is a per-argument way adding extra arguments to the DefaultDialect.construct_arguments dictionary. This dictionary provides a list of argument names accepted by various schema-level constructs on behalf of a dialect.

New dialects should typically specify this dictionary all at once as a data member of the dialect class. The use case for ad-hoc addition of argument names is typically for end-user code that is also using a custom compilation scheme which consumes the additional arguments.

Parameters
  • dialect_name – name of a dialect. The dialect must be locatable, else a NoSuchModuleError is raised. The dialect must also include an existing DefaultDialect.construct_arguments collection, indicating that it participates in the keyword-argument validation and default system, else ArgumentError is raised. If the dialect does not include this collection, then any keyword argument can be specified on behalf of this dialect already. All dialects packaged within SQLAlchemy include this collection, however for third party dialects, support may vary.

  • argument_name – name of the parameter.

  • default – default value of the parameter.

New in version 0.9.4.

contains_column(col)

Return True if this constraint contains the given column.

Note that this object also contains an attribute .columns which is a _expression.ColumnCollection of _schema.Column objects.

copy(target_table=None, **kw)

Deprecated since version 1.4: The _schema.CheckConstraint.copy() method is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

create(*a, **kw)

Create the constraint in the database.

Parameters
  • engine (sqlalchemy.engine.base.Engine) – the database engine to use. If this is None the instance’s engine will be used

  • connection (sqlalchemy.engine.base.Connection instance) – reuse connection istead of creating new one.

drop(*a, **kw)

Drop the constraint from the database.

Parameters
  • engine (sqlalchemy.engine.base.Engine) – the database engine to use. If this is None the instance’s engine will be used

  • cascade (bool) – Issue CASCADE drop if database supports it

  • connection (sqlalchemy.engine.base.Connection instance) – reuse connection istead of creating new one.

Returns

Instance with cleared columns

get_children(omit_attrs=(), **kw)

Return immediate child visitors.Traversible elements of this visitors.Traversible.

This is used for visit traversal.

**kw may contain flags that change the collection that is returned, for example to return a subset of items in order to cut down on larger traversals, or to return child items from a different context (such as schema-level collections instead of clause-level).

dialect_kwargs

A collection of keyword arguments specified as dialect-specific options to this construct.

The arguments are present here in their original <dialect>_<kwarg> format. Only arguments that were actually passed are included; unlike the DialectKWArgs.dialect_options collection, which contains all options known by this dialect including defaults.

The collection is also writable; keys are accepted of the form <dialect>_<kwarg> where the value will be assembled into the list of options.

New in version 0.9.2.

Changed in version 0.9.4: The DialectKWArgs.dialect_kwargs collection is now writable.

Module migrate.versioning – Database versioning and repository management

This package provides functionality to create and manage repositories of database schema changesets and to apply these changesets to databases.

Module api – Python API commands

This module provides an external API to the versioning system.

Changed in version 0.6.0: migrate.versioning.api.test() and schema diff functions changed order of positional arguments so all accept url and repository as first arguments.

Changed in version 0.5.4: --preview_sql displays source file when using SQL scripts. If Python script is used, it runs the action with mocked engine and returns captured SQL statements.

Changed in version 0.5.4: Deprecated --echo parameter in favour of new migrate.versioning.util.construct_engine() behavior.

migrate.versioning.api.compare_model_to_db(url, repository, model, **opts)

%prog compare_model_to_db URL REPOSITORY_PATH MODEL

Compare the current model (assumed to be a module level variable of type sqlalchemy.MetaData) against the current database.

NOTE: This is EXPERIMENTAL.

migrate.versioning.api.create(repository, name, **opts)

%prog create REPOSITORY_PATH NAME [–table=TABLE]

Create an empty repository at the specified path.

You can specify the version_table to be used; by default, it is ‘migrate_version’. This table is created in all version-controlled databases.

migrate.versioning.api.create_model(url, repository, **opts)

%prog create_model URL REPOSITORY_PATH [DECLERATIVE=True]

Dump the current database as a Python model to stdout.

NOTE: This is EXPERIMENTAL.

migrate.versioning.api.db_version(url, repository, **opts)

%prog db_version URL REPOSITORY_PATH

Show the current version of the repository with the given connection string, under version control of the specified repository.

The url should be any valid SQLAlchemy connection string.

migrate.versioning.api.downgrade(url, repository, version, **opts)

%prog downgrade URL REPOSITORY_PATH VERSION [–preview_py|–preview_sql]

Downgrade a database to an earlier version.

This is the reverse of upgrade; this runs the downgrade() function defined in your change scripts.

You may preview the Python or SQL code to be executed, rather than actually executing it, using the appropriate ‘preview’ option.

migrate.versioning.api.drop_version_control(url, repository, **opts)

%prog drop_version_control URL REPOSITORY_PATH

Removes version control from a database.

migrate.versioning.api.help(cmd=None, **opts)

%prog help COMMAND

Displays help on a given command.

migrate.versioning.api.make_update_script_for_model(url, repository, oldmodel, model, **opts)

%prog make_update_script_for_model URL OLDMODEL MODEL REPOSITORY_PATH

Create a script changing the old Python model to the new (current) Python model, sending to stdout.

NOTE: This is EXPERIMENTAL.

migrate.versioning.api.manage(file, **opts)

%prog manage FILENAME [VARIABLES…]

Creates a script that runs Migrate with a set of default values.

For example:

%prog manage manage.py --repository=/path/to/repository --url=sqlite:///project.db

would create the script manage.py. The following two commands would then have exactly the same results:

python manage.py version
%prog version --repository=/path/to/repository
migrate.versioning.api.script(description, repository, **opts)

%prog script DESCRIPTION REPOSITORY_PATH

Create an empty change script using the next unused version number appended with the given description.

For instance, manage.py script “Add initial tables” creates: repository/versions/001_Add_initial_tables.py

migrate.versioning.api.script_sql(database, description, repository, **opts)

%prog script_sql DATABASE DESCRIPTION REPOSITORY_PATH

Create empty change SQL scripts for given DATABASE, where DATABASE is either specific (‘postgresql’, ‘mysql’, ‘oracle’, ‘sqlite’, etc.) or generic (‘default’).

For instance, manage.py script_sql postgresql description creates: repository/versions/001_description_postgresql_upgrade.sql and repository/versions/001_description_postgresql_downgrade.sql

migrate.versioning.api.source(version, dest=None, repository=None, **opts)

%prog source VERSION [DESTINATION] –repository=REPOSITORY_PATH

Display the Python code for a particular version in this repository. Save it to the file at DESTINATION or, if omitted, send to stdout.

migrate.versioning.api.test(url, repository, **opts)

%prog test URL REPOSITORY_PATH [VERSION]

Performs the upgrade and downgrade option on the given database. This is not a real test and may leave the database in a bad state. You should therefore better run the test on a copy of your database.

migrate.versioning.api.update_db_from_model(url, repository, model, **opts)

%prog update_db_from_model URL REPOSITORY_PATH MODEL

Modify the database to match the structure of the current Python model. This also sets the db_version number to the latest in the repository.

NOTE: This is EXPERIMENTAL.

migrate.versioning.api.upgrade(url, repository, version=None, **opts)

%prog upgrade URL REPOSITORY_PATH [VERSION] [–preview_py|–preview_sql]

Upgrade a database to a later version.

This runs the upgrade() function defined in your change scripts.

By default, the database is updated to the latest available version. You may specify a version instead, if you wish.

You may preview the Python or SQL code to be executed, rather than actually executing it, using the appropriate ‘preview’ option.

migrate.versioning.api.version(repository, **opts)

%prog version REPOSITORY_PATH

Display the latest version available in a repository.

migrate.versioning.api.version_control(url, repository, version=None, **opts)

%prog version_control URL REPOSITORY_PATH [VERSION]

Mark a database as under this repository’s version control.

Once a database is under version control, schema changes should only be done via change scripts in this repository.

This creates the table version_table in the database.

The url should be any valid SQLAlchemy connection string.

By default, the database begins at version 0 and is assumed to be empty. If the database is not empty, you may specify a version at which to begin instead. No attempt is made to verify this version’s correctness - the database schema is expected to be identical to what it would be if the database were created from scratch.
