This is very interesting.
What about views?
Views have no primary keys.
I have a view defined as:
view['name'] = Table('name', database.metadata, autoload=True)
class WassignedPerms(DomainObject):
def __str__(self):
return self.description or repr(self)
assign_mapper(context, WassignedPerms, view['name'],
primary_key = [ view['name'].c.group_id, view['name'].c.permission_id ]
)
I tried to define it using sqlsoup as:
----------
class WassignedPerms(DomainObject):
def __str__(self):
return self.description or repr(self)
assign_mapper(context, WassignedPerms, db.name._table,
primary_key = [ db.name.c.group_id, db.name.c.permission_id ]
)
here error message:
sqlalchemy.ext.sqlsoup.PKNotFoundError: table 'name' does not have a
primary key defined
