ormar

Overview

The ormar package is an async mini ORM for Python, with support for Postgres, MySQL, and SQLite.

The main benefits of using ormar are:

getting an async ORM that can be used with async frameworks (fastapi, starlette etc.)
getting just one model to maintain - you don't have to maintain pydantic and other orm models (sqlalchemy, peewee, gino etc.)

The goal was to create a simple ORM that can be used directly (as request and response models) with fastapi that bases it's data validation on pydantic.

Ormar - apart from the obvious "ORM" in name - gets its name from ormar in Swedish which means snakes, and ormar in Croatian which means cabinet.

And what's a better name for python ORM than snakes cabinet :)

If you like ormar remember to star the repository in github!

The bigger community we build, the easier it will be to catch bugs and attract contributors ;)

Documentation

Check out the documentation for details.

Note that for brevity most of the documentation snippets omit the creation of the database and scheduling the execution of functions for asynchronous run.

If you want more real life examples than in the documentation you can see the tests folder, since they actually have to create and connect to a database in most of the tests.

Yet remember that those are - well - tests and not all solutions are suitable to be used in real life applications.

Part of the `fastapi` ecosystem

As part of the fastapi ecosystem ormar is supported in libraries that somehow work with databases.

As of now ormar is supported by:

If you maintain or use a different library and would like it to support ormar let us know how we can help.

Dependencies

Ormar is built with:

sqlalchemy core for query building.
databases for cross-database async support.
pydantic for data validation.
typing_extensions for python 3.6 - 3.7

License

ormar is built as open-sorce software and will remain completely free (MIT license).

As I write open-source code to solve everyday problems in my work or to promote and build strong python community you can say thank you and buy me a coffee or sponsor me with a monthly amount to help ensure my work remains free and maintained.

Migrating from `sqlalchemy` and existing databases

If you currently use sqlalchemy and would like to switch to ormar check out the auto-translation tool that can help you with translating existing sqlalchemy orm models so you do not have to do it manually.

Beta versions available at github: sqlalchemy-to-ormar or simply pip install sqlalchemy-to-ormar

sqlalchemy-to-ormar can be used in pair with sqlacodegen to auto-map/ generate ormar models from existing database, even if you don't use sqlalchemy for your project.

Migrations & Database creation

Because ormar is built on SQLAlchemy core, you can use alembic to provide database migrations (and you really should for production code).

For tests and basic applications the sqlalchemy is more than enough:

# note this is just a partial snippet full working example below
# 1. Imports
import sqlalchemy
import databases

# 2. Initialization
DATABASE_URL = "sqlite:///db.sqlite"
database = databases.Database(DATABASE_URL)
metadata = sqlalchemy.MetaData()

# Define models here

# 3. Database creation and tables creation
engine = sqlalchemy.create_engine(DATABASE_URL)
metadata.create_all(engine)

For a sample configuration of alembic and more information regarding migrations and database creation visit migrations documentation section.

Package versions

ormar is still under development: We recommend pinning any dependencies (with i.e. ormar~=0.9.1)

ormar also follows the release numeration that breaking changes bump the major number, while other changes and fixes bump minor number, so with the latter you should be safe to update, yet always read the releases docs before. example: (0.5.2 -> 0.6.0 - breaking, 0.5.2 -> 0.5.3 - non breaking).

Asynchronous Python

Note that ormar is an asynchronous ORM, which means that you have to await the calls to the methods, that are scheduled for execution in an event loop. Python has a builtin module asyncio that allows you to do just that.

Note that most "normal" python interpreters do not allow execution of await outside of a function (because you actually schedule this function for delayed execution and don't get the result immediately).

In a modern web framework (like fastapi), the framework will handle this for you, but if you plan to do this on your own you need to perform this manually like described in the quick start below.

Note that you can find the same script in examples folder on github.

Relation types

One to many - with ForeignKey(to: Model)
Many to many - with ManyToMany(to: Model, Optional[through]: Model)

Model fields types

Available Model Fields (with required args - optional ones in docs):

String(max_length)
Text()
Boolean()
Integer()
Float()
Date()
Time()
DateTime()
JSON()
BigInteger()
SmallInteger()
Decimal(scale, precision)
UUID()
LargeBinary(max_length)
Enum(enum_class)
Enum like Field - by passing choices to any other Field type
EncryptedString - by passing encrypt_secret and encrypt_backend
ForeignKey(to)
ManyToMany(to)

Available fields options

The following keyword arguments are supported on all field types.

primary_key: bool
nullable: bool
default: Any
server_default: Any
index: bool
unique: bool
choices: typing.Sequence
name: str

All fields are required unless one of the following is set:

nullable - Creates a nullable column. Sets the default to False. Read the fields common parameters for details.
sql_nullable - Used to set different setting for pydantic and the database. Sets the default to nullable value. Read the fields common parameters for details.
default - Set a default value for the field. Not available for relation fields
server_default - Set a default value for the field on server side (like sqlalchemy's func.now()). Not available for relation fields
primary key with autoincrement - When a column is set to primary key and autoincrement is set on this column. Autoincrement is set by default on int primary keys.

Available signals

Signals allow to trigger your function for a given event on a given Model.

pre_save
post_save
pre_update
post_update
pre_delete
post_delete
pre_relation_add
post_relation_add
pre_relation_remove
post_relation_remove
post_bulk_update
