I'm trying to "translate" this query in sqlalchemy core.

s="""
select l.field3, l.field2, l.field4, l.field1
from lake l
join (
  select *
  from unnest(array['ticker3','ticker1', 'ticker2']) with ordinality
) as x (id, ordering) on l.ticker = x.id
where time = '2019-06-28'
order by x.ordering;
"""


I managed to get quite close thanks to recipes from 
https://github.com/sqlalchemy/sqlalchemy/issues/3566 

However I fail at getting a proper alias for the left part of the join. The 
issue mentions:

To get the form with "AS x(unnest, ordinality)" you'd need to add another 
> construct like a subclass of Alias or something, however it seems like the 
> "unnest" construct can be aliased in the tradtional way and the column 
> names become "(function name, ordinality)". Again the amount of special 
> functions and behaviors that would be part of a standard feature keep on 
> growing, making this a difficult feature to add as "done" without missing

I've not been able to write the *AS* part of the query as described above.

Here's where I'm at (see below for full code)

I chncked the query in several parts and ultimately I'd like to join s1 
with s3, s1 works fine, s3 too, but s3 miss the alias to be able to perform 
the join

   - s1 (SELECT field3, field2, field4, field1 FROM lake) 
   - s3 (SELECT * FROM unnest(ARRAY[%(param_1)s, %(param_2)s, %(param_3)s]) 
   WITH ORDINALITY AS anon_1),

Float, func, alias

Column('ticker', Text, primary_key=True),
Column('field1', Integer),
Column('field2', String),
Column('field3', Float),
Column('field4', String),
)
conn = engine.connect()


s="""
select l.field3, l.field2, l.field4, l.field1

  select *
  from unnest(array['ticker3','ticker1', 'ticker2']) with ordinality
) as x (id, ordering) on l.ticker = x.id
where time = '2019-06-28'
order by x.ordering;
"""

fields_asked = ['field3', 'field2', 'field4', 'field1']
columns_asked = [column(fa) for fa in fields_asked]
s1 = select(columns_asked, from_obj=lake)
result = conn.execute(s1)
print('s1')
# seems ok
# SELECT field3, field2, field4, field1 FROM lake
print(result.fetchall())

ticker_arr= array(['ticker3', 'ticker1', 'ticker2'])
s2 = select(['*']).select_from(alias(func.unnest(ticker_arr)))
result = conn.execute(s2)
print('s2')
print(result.fetchall())

    name = 'unnest'
    column_names = ['unnest', 'ordinality']

    return compiler.visit_function(element, **kw) + " WITH ORDINALITY"

conn.close()
