tables can be altered additively, sure
from sqlalchemy import *
from sqlalchemy.schema import CreateTable
m = MetaData()
# table w/ no PK
t = Table(
"nopk", m,
Column('q', Integer),
Column('p', Integer)
)
# add a column w/ pk=True
t.append_column(Column('id', Integer, primary_key=True))
print(CreateTable(t))
# table w/ no PK
t2 = Table(
"nopk_2", m,
Column('q', Integer),
Column('p', Integer)
)
# add a new pk constraint, append_constraint knows how to replace
# an empty pk constraint w/ a non-empty one
t2.append_constraint(PrimaryKeyConstraint("q", "p"))
print(CreateTable(t2))
