Pylons, SQlite and autoincrementing fields
- by Maxfrank
Hey!
Just started working with Pylons in conjunction with SQLAlchemy, and my model looks something like this:
from sqlalchemy import Column
from sqlalchemy.types import Integer, String
from helloworld.model.meta import Base
class Person(Base):
__tablename__ = "person"
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
name = Column(String(100))
email = Column(String(100))
def __init__(self, name='', email=''):
self.name = name
self.email = email
def __repr__(self):
return "<Person('%s')" % self.name
To avoid sqlite reusing id's that might have been deleted, I want to add AUTOINCREMENT to the column "id". I've looked through the documentation for sqlalchemy and saw that the sqlite_autoincrement can be issued.
An example where this attribute is given can be found here.
sqlite_autoincrement seems though to be issued when creating the table itself, and I just wondered how it can be supplied when using a declarative style of the model such as mine.
