SQLAHelper 1.0b1

SQLAHeler is a small library for SQLAlchemy web applications. It was written for Pyramid but is not framework-specific. It acts as a container for the application’s contextual session, engines, and declarative base. This avoids circular dependencies or the need for a ‘meta’ module if your model is split across multiple modules.

The contextual session is initialized with the ZopeTransactionExtension so that it can be used with transaction managers. This can be disabled if desired.

Version 1.0b1 is a public beta test before the final release.

It’s currently tested on Python 2.6/Linux but should work on 2.5 and other platforms. A set of unit tests is included.

Documentation is in the ‘docs’ directory and at SQLAHelper documentation.
