Hello!

I'm pleased to announce version 3.9.0, the first release of branch 3.9 of SQLObject.

What's new in SQLObject

Contributors for this release are:

  • Michael S. Root, Ameya Bapat - JSONCol;
  • Jerry Nance - reported a bug with DateTime from Zope.

Features

  • Add JSONCol: a universal json column that converts simple Python objects (None, bool, int, float, long, dict, list, str/unicode to/from JSON using json.dumps/loads. A subclass of StringCol. Requires VARCHAR/TEXT columns at backends, doesn't work with JSON columns.
  • Extend/fix support for DateTime from Zope.
  • Drop support for very old version of mxDateTime without mx. namespace.

Drivers

CI

  • Run tests with Python 3.9 at Travis and AppVeyor.

What is SQLObject

SQLObject is an object-relational mapper. Your database tables are described as classes, and rows are instances of those classes. SQLObject is meant to be easy to use and quick to get started with.

It currently supports MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite; connections to other backends - Firebird, Sybase, MSSQL and MaxDB (also known as SAPDB) - are lesser debugged).

Python 2.7 or 3.4+ is required.

Example

Create a simple class that wraps a table:

>>> from sqlobject import *
>>>
>>> sqlhub.processConnection = connectionForURI('sqlite:/:memory:')
>>>
>>> class Person(SQLObject):
...     fname = StringCol()
...     mi = StringCol(length=1, default=None)
...     lname = StringCol()
...
>>> Person.createTable()

Use the object:

>>> p = Person(fname="John", lname="Doe")
>>> p
<Person 1 fname='John' mi=None lname='Doe'>
>>> p.fname
'John'
>>> p.mi = 'Q'
>>> p2 = Person.get(1)
>>> p2
<Person 1 fname='John' mi='Q' lname='Doe'>
>>> p is p2
True

Queries:

>>> p3 = Person.selectBy(lname="Doe")[0]
>>> p3
<Person 1 fname='John' mi='Q' lname='Doe'>
>>> pc = Person.select(Person.q.lname=="Doe").count()
>>> pc
1
