Framework to implement basic CRUD operations with DB for DataObject.

Quick start

Setup in-line

Set up your connection string to your database.

from db_able import client


client.CONN_STR = '{dialect}+{driver}://{username}:{password}@{host}:{port}/{database}?{query_args}'

Environment Variable

Set up connection string with an environment variable.

export DB_CONN_STR={dialect}+{driver}://{username}:{password}@{host}:{port}/{database}?{query_args}

Usage

Implement the mixins into your DataObject to inject CRUD methods.

from do_py import R
from db_able import Creatable, Deletable, Loadable, Savable


class MyObject(Creatable, Deletable, Loadable, Savable):
    db = '{schema_name}'
    _restrictions = {
        'id': R.INT,
        'key': R.INT
        }
    load_params = ['id']
    create_params = ['key']
    delete_params = ['id']
    save_params = ['id', 'key']


my_obj = MyObject.create(key=555)
my_obj = MyObject.load(id=my_obj.id)
my_obj.key = 777
my_obj.save()
my_obj.delete()

Classmethods create, load, and methods save and delete are made available to your DataObject class.

Use provided SQL Generating utils to expedite implementation.

Advanced Use Cases

Best Practices

  • It is recommended to store your SQL files within your code repository for ease of reference. Refer to do-able/tests/sql for an example of code organization.
  • Generally, explicitly defining the columns for your %s_load stored procedures is better for forward compatibility as changes are implemented in the long run.
