sqlalchemy-repr
===============

.. image:: https://travis-ci.org/manicmaniac/sqlalchemy-repr.svg?branch=master
:target: https://travis-ci.org/manicmaniac/sqlalchemy-repr

Automatically generates pretty ``repr`` of a SQLAlchemy model.

Install
-------

.. code:: sh

pip install sqlalchemy-repr

Usage
-----

.. code:: python

from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base
from sqlalchemy_repr import RepresentableBase

Base = declarative_base(cls=RepresentableBase)

Example
-------

``sqlalchemy_repr.RepresentableBase`` is mixin to add simple representation of columns.

.. code:: python

>>> from datetime import datetime

>>> from sqlalchemy import Column, DateTime, Integer, Unicode, create_engine
>>> from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base
>>> from sqlalchemy.orm import sessionmaker
>>> from sqlalchemy_repr import RepresentableBase

>>> Base = declarative_base(cls=RepresentableBase)

>>> class User(Base):
... __tablename__ = 'users'
... id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
... name = Column(Unicode(255), nullable=False, unique=True)
... created = Column(DateTime, nullable=False)

>>> engine = create_engine('sqlite://')
>>> Base.metadata.create_all(engine)

>>> Session = sessionmaker(bind=engine)
>>> session = Session()

>>> user = User(name='spam', created=datetime(2016, 6, 1))
>>> session.add(user)
>>> session.commit()

>>> print(user)

``sqlalchemy_repr.PrettyRepresentableBase`` brings pretty, indented multi-line representation.

.. code:: python

>>> from sqlalchemy_repr import PrettyRepresentableBase
>>> Base = declarative_base(cls=PrettyRepresentableBase)

>>> class User(Base):
... __tablename__ = 'users'
... id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
... first_name = Column(Unicode(255), nullable=False, unique=True)
... last_name = Column(Unicode(255), nullable=False, unique=True)
... email = Column(Unicode(255), nullable=False)
... created = Column(DateTime, nullable=False)
... modified = Column(DateTime, nullable=False)

>>> engine = create_engine('sqlite://')
>>> Base.metadata.create_all(engine)

>>> Session = sessionmaker(bind=engine)
>>> session = Session()

>>> user = User(first_name='spam', last_name='ham', email='[email protected]', created=datetime(2016, 6, 1), modified=datetime(2016, 6, 1))
>>> session.add(user)
>>> session.commit()

>>> print(user)
