I've been using the "literalquery" function as described in the top answer on this Stackoverflow page for the past year or so: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5631078/sqlalchemy-print-the-actual-query
I found it very easy to add extra types to it. It has been really handy. I use it in practically every SQLAlchemy development project that ends up involving complicated queries. The more complicated the query, the more likely I am to really need this capability. It helps to troubleshoot the query and to run explain plans in the database for optimizing the query as well. Lastly, I use it to provide an audit trail for what queries were run, and when. -- Recently I started getting this error: statement._mapper_zero_or_none() AttributeError: 'Query' object has no attribute '_mapper_zero_or_none' I'm thinking something changed in one of the 1.0.x releases that removed or broke the _mapper_zero_or_none function. Is that true? (or did I break something else in my script that tis error is hiding?) I have not found anything that even describes what this function does in the online documentation or by Google or DuckDuckGo searching. I'll search the source next, I suppose, but thought I'd ask and get the question out there in case anyone else bumps into the same issue. @zzzeek states that this particular function is unnecessary in the comments on the stackoverflow discussion, but doesn't really explain why or how to remove it: """this solution in no way accurately represents what's involved to stringify a statement. the reaching intio _mapper_Zero_or_none and attempts to locate "bound" metadata are all completely unnecessary. The overriding of Compiler is also a hack that overlooks documented APIs. I'll provide an answer shortly. – zzzeek <http://stackoverflow.com/users/34549/zzzeek> May 23 '14 at 17:42 <http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5631078/sqlalchemy-print-the-actual-query#comment36675387_5698357> """ I don't have a stackoverflow account with enough points to be able to comment and ask the question there. -- Rick. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.
