I think it does makes sense to keep SQL confined to well-defined
locations. This can be per class - each class holds its own SQL - or a
single class that does all database access so all SQL and database
dependencies are in one place.
My vote for the class every time. I hate having to make changes
in two places when I add an attribute etc. Especially if they are in
two separate files or the classes are beiong used in multiple projects.
All that regression testing becomes a headache.
class DataSources(object):
def getAdata(self):
# execute sql for callerA
def getBdata(self):
#execute sql for callerB
You might as well just put them as functions in a module, but
you still have the double file maintenance issue.
