Storm integration for Flask.

Project description

Flask-Storm
===========
|test-status| |pypi-version|

Flask-Storm is an extension for `Flask <https://www.palletsprojects.com/p/flask/>`_ that adds support for Canonical's ORM `Storm <https://storm.canonical.com/>`_ to your application. Flask-Storm automatically opens and closes database connections on demand when requests need them.


Example
-------
Access to the database is done using the `store` `application context local <http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/0.11/appcontext/>`_. Within an application context this variable holds a reference to a Storm Store instance. If no connection is opened it will automatically open one. When the application context is torn down, normally after the request has returned, the store is closed.

.. code-block:: python

from flask_storm import store
from storm.locals import Int, Unicode

class User(object):
__storm_table__ = "users"

id = Int(primary=True)
name = Unicode()


@app.route("/")
def index():
# Get name of user with ID 1
return store.get(User, 1).name


Installation
------------

.. code-block:: bash

pip install flask_storm[fancy]

This installs Flask-Storm with SQL highlighting and reformatting support. If you do not want this drop the ``fancy``.

.. code-block:: bash

pip install flask_storm

Changelog
=========
Version are structured like the following: ``<major>.<minor>.<bugfix>``. Unless
explicitly stated, changes are made by
`Andreas Runfalk <https://github.com/runfalk>`_.


Version 1.0.0
-------------
Released on 23rd May 2021

- Dropped support for Python 3.3
- Dropped support for Python 3.4
- Dropped support for Python 3.5
- Updated documentation to work with newer Sphinx versions
- Support upstream Storm 0.21 or newer (thank you
`Colin Watson <https://github.com/cjwatson>`_)
- Fixed broken placeholder replacement when using SQL statement printing in
Python 3 (thank you `Colin Watson <https://github.com/cjwatson>`_)
- Fixed problem where ``fancy`` would always be set to ``False`` regardless of
the provided value when it was specified to a tracer.

Note that dropped Python versions may still work, but that's accidental rather
than intentional.
