Only comparing the model against the database doesn't work perfectly anyway. Some problems are: * You can't derive all model features from the database (e.g. whether a column has been declared as String or Unicode). * Some features can be implemented in the model only, not in the database (e.g. default values). * Some features are not detected properly by SQLAlchemy (e.g. whether index=True was set on a column). So it would be nice to have something similar Ruby on Rail's solution for database migrations, where you need to describe your changes explicitly. Requires more discipline though. -- Christoph --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
