I'm in situation where it would be convenient to specify a value for
createJoinTables at class definition time. At present, I'm doing so with
my own code:
class MyTable(SQLObject):
...
MyTable.createTableArgs = { 'createJoinTables': False }
...and later...
classNames = set(locals())
for clsName in list(classNames):
cls = locals()[clsName]
if (isinstance(cls, type) and issubclass(cls, SQLObject)
and cls is not SQLObject
and cls is not InheritableSQLObject):
if hasattr(cls, 'createTableArgs'):
cls.createTable(ifNotExists=True, **cls.createTableArgs)
else:
cls.createTable(ifNotExists=True)
else:
classNames.remove(clsName)
This *works*, but it's been (rightly, I think) suggested by Jorge Vargas
on the TurboGears list that it would be more appropriate to just have
this (either createTableArgs or createJoinTables, specifically) be
definable through sqlmeta.
What's 'yall's take? If it's a Good Idea, I don't mind whipping together
a patch myself.
