we dont parse DDL but instead only read Table objects from the database directly, using reflection via the "autoload=True" flag. If you had a DDL file, you could load this into a database to be reflected, else if you already have a live database, you can reflect straight from that.
docs are here: http://www.sqlalchemy.org/docs/05/metadata.html#metadata_tables_reflecting but also, this seems to be missing from the docs there, metadata can reflect the entire database using: metadata.reflect(bind=someengine) On Oct 30, 2008, at 12:14 PM, Michele Simionato wrote: > > Is there some utility to convert a schema file (obtained by dumping > the schema of a pre-existing database) into a Python file containing > the corresponding SQLAlchemy table definitions? > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.
