Hello,

I'm having an issue with a "contains" query on a VARBINARY column. It
appears the statement compiles incorrectly, or I am not using SQLAlchemy
correctly.

I know the MySQL CLI query that works correctly as you will see below, but
I don't know how to get it. The CLI query is only one character different
from the one that SQLAlchemy creates.

I've spent a few days googling this with no luck.

Any assistance with my syntax would be greatly appreciated.

*PIP packages*

PyMySQL==1.0.2
SQLAlchemy==1.4.39

*Code Snippet*

hostname = 'CHJWNNEK'
statement = select(MacIp.hostname).where(
        MacIp.hostname.contains(hostname.encode()
    )

*Issue*

The SQLAlchemy example compiles to this when adding this argument to the
compile function *"compile_kwargs={'literal_binds': True}"*:

SELECT smap_macip.hostname
FROM smap_macip
WHERE (smap_macip.hostname LIKE concat('%%' + 'CHJWNNEK', '%%'))

This gives no results, however it works when I do the query from the CLI
like this. ('+' replaced with ',')

SELECT smap_macip.hostname
FROM smap_macip
WHERE (smap_macip.hostname LIKE concat(*'%%', 'CHJWNNEK', '%%'*))

*Column Contents*

select hostname from smap_macip;
+------------+
| hostname   |
+------------+
| TVUPQBAZJX |
| *CHJWNNEKYE* |
| LODFHBAWVT |
| QMQRDNJJPV |
| ICHGULIMUU |
| AMXHISKNVT |
+------------+

*Table Definition*

class MacIp(BASE):
    """Database table definition."""

    __tablename__ = 'smap_macip'
    __table_args__ = (
        UniqueConstraint('idx_device', 'ip_', 'idx_mac'),
        {'mysql_engine': 'InnoDB'}
    )

    idx_macip = Column(
        BIGINT(20, unsigned=True), primary_key=True, unique=True)
    idx_device = Column(
        ForeignKey('smap_device.idx_device'),
        nullable=False, index=True, default=1, server_default=text('1'))
    idx_mac = Column(
        ForeignKey('smap_mac.idx_mac'),
        nullable=False, index=True, default=1, server_default=text('1'))
    ip_ = Column(VARBINARY(256), nullable=True, default=Null)
    hostname = Column(VARBINARY(256), nullable=True, default=Null)
    type = Column(BIGINT(unsigned=True), nullable=True, default=Null)
    enabled = Column(BIT(1), default=1)
    ts_modified = Column(
        DateTime, nullable=False,
        default=datetime.datetime.utcnow, onupdate=datetime.datetime.now)
    ts_created = Column(
        DateTime, nullable=False, default=datetime.datetime.utcnow)
