Normally, declarative can be used with reflection by setting a :class:`.Table` object using autoload=True as the ``__table__`` attribute on a declarative class. The caveat is that the :class:`.Table` must be fully reflected, or at the very least have a primary key column, at the point at which a normal declarative mapping is constructed, meaning the :class:`.Engine` must be available at class declaration time. The :class:`.DeferredReflection` mixin moves the construction of mappers to be at a later point, after a specific method is called which first reflects all :class:`.Table` objects created so far. Classes can define it as such:: from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import DeferredReflection Base = declarative_base() class MyClass(DeferredReflection, Base): __tablename__ = 'mytable' Above, ``MyClass`` is not yet mapped. After a series of classes have been defined in the above fashion, all tables can be reflected and mappings created using :meth:`.DeferredReflection.prepare`:: engine = create_engine("someengine://...") DeferredReflection.prepare(engine) The :class:`.DeferredReflection` mixin can be applied to individual classes, used as the base for the declarative base itself, or used in a custom abstract class. Using an abstract base allows that only a subset of classes to be prepared for a particular prepare step, which is necessary for applications that use more than one engine. For example, if an application has two engines, you might use two bases, and prepare each separately, e.g.:: class ReflectedOne(DeferredReflection, Base): __abstract__ = True class ReflectedTwo(DeferredReflection, Base): __abstract__ = True class MyClass(ReflectedOne): __tablename__ = 'mytable' class MyOtherClass(ReflectedOne): __tablename__ = 'myothertable' class YetAnotherClass(ReflectedTwo): __tablename__ = 'yetanothertable' # ... etc. Above, the class hierarchies for ``ReflectedOne`` and ``ReflectedTwo`` can be configured separately:: ReflectedOne.prepare(engine_one) ReflectedTwo.prepare(engine_two) .. versionadded:: 0.8 """ @classmethod def prepare(cls, engine): """Reflect all :class:`.Table` objects for all current :class:`.DeferredReflection` subclasses""" to_map = [m for m in _MapperConfig.configs.values() if issubclass(m.cls, cls)] for thingy in to_map: cls._sa_decl_prepare(thingy.local_table, engine) thingy.map() @classmethod def _sa_decl_prepare(cls, local_table, engine): # autoload Table, which is already # present in the metadata.
