I'm not authorized to talk on behalf of F-S but IMO, these options could be milestones applied in parallel toward migration to 2.0. However, a question arises here, that you might have already seen, which is: given the major leap in how SQLAlchemy 2.0 is designed, is it better to think of rebuilding medium+ projects for 2.0 while maintaining existing codebases for 1.3? In other words, how much will 2.0 be backward compatible with 1.3? A.

Re: [sqlalchemy] relationship query_class in SQLAlchemy 1.4.0b3
Hi Mike - Thank you for your insights. Actually, this is part of upgrading Flask-SQLAlchemy library dependency to 1.4.0b3 and eventually 2.0. The snippet above is extracted from a test case that didn't pass against 1.4.0b3. I've checked sqlalchemy.orm.with_parent <https://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/14/orm/query.html?highlight=with_parent#sqlalchemy.orm.with_parent> (Python function, in Query API) documentation entry, however, it's not clear to me how with_parent construct can fit in the implementation instead of Query. I guess it would require a major change in how the library (Flask-SQLAlchemy) is currently designed as it functionally extends sqlalchemy.orm.Query and pass the extended class to relationship and other constructs as well.

[sqlalchemy] relationship query_class in SQLAlchemy 1.4.0b3
Hello, It seems that SQLAlchemy 1.4.0b3 ignores relationship() query_class parameter. Here's the snippet that works with 1.3 but doesn't with 1.4: class Parent(db.Model): __tablename__ = "todo" id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True) # ... Column mappings children = db.relationship("Child", backref="todo", query_class=DerivedQuery, lazy="dynamic") class Child(db.Model): __tablename__ = "todo" # ... Column mappings parent_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey("todo.id")) assert isinstance(p.children, DerivedQuery) In 1.4, children attribute is always an instance of AppenderQuery regardless of the query_class value. I might have missed something above though. -- SQLAlchemy - The Python SQL Toolkit and Object Relational Mapper http://www.sqlalchemy.org/ To post example code, please provide an MCVE: Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable Example.

[sqlalchemy] Re: Changing the declarative base of a class and re-mapping
It seems that I have found a solution. After digging in sqlalchemy code, it seems that the _configure_property mapper function would do the trick. so ... newprop = RelationshipProperty(newtargetmodel, **rel_kwargs) newparentmodel.__mapper__._configure_property(oldprop.key, newprop) so what I did above was to construct a new RelationshipProperty (copying all the key word arguments from the old property) and then configure it onto the new model (which inherits from the old one). Before this step I also disposed of the old model mapper using mapper.dispose() and remapped using mapper() but without specifying the relationships in the mapper 'properties', this gave me the same classes with only the columns and without the relationship properties, which I then attached later using the _configure_property manually as above.

[sqlalchemy] Problem accessing sqlite records w primary keys imported from csv file
Hello, I have an issue, not sure if it is a bug or I am just screwing some things up. Anyway: I am using pyramid with a sqlite db in develop mode (still not in production). I then imported some data from csv into a table which includes a primary key. (that is: primary key id values included in the csv and was imported in the primary key auto increment column) When querying the data, sqalchemy throws an error.

However, when any query result includes *any* of the records that was originally added via the import and not via sqlalchemy ... this error is thrown. It is as if sqlalchemy cannot read/fetch the entered primary key values 'manually' set via the import. I am not sure if I am doing the right approach for the import, but I would appreciate any advice, and if you think it is a bug, then I will then submit it in the correct place for that.
