I have just completed going through the wiki-20 tutorial, making the necessary changes to use SQLAlchemy. But I don't like the feel of the final product. It feels like I'm having to force all database interaction. I found several very informative pages by searching google and the TG-groups archives, but I didn't find anything that I would call definitive. Can someone post a link to a good example of the current best practices for using SA with TG?
A few of the issues I ran into: -My goal with TG is to write a new front-end to existing databases. autoload=True is a requirement. -My tables have string columns, but TG tries to write unicode data into them. I had to add extra str()'s every time I'm sending something to the database. -Is there any way to auto save/commit? All of the SA docs I have seen say that I need to force it with session.save and session.flush -As my database is already defined, I don't see any advantages to ActiveMapper. Am I wrong?
