    Reply to /u/onlinepersona SQLAlchemy crocodile tears.

    Really need a layer between SQLAlchemy and FastAPI (or litestar, …). Otherwise would be messing around with SQLAlchemy/alembic internals for years. SQLAlchemy is an incredible time sink without that additional layer.

    Created just such a package just never got around to publishing it:

    • static type checking throughout
    • sync and async support throughout
    • alembic support (both async and sync)
    • multiple databases. One per config file!
    • model built from dotted path of (sqlmodel and sqla mixins) components module
    • UDF (user defined functions)
    • database settings (PRAGMA, SHOW, SET, …)
    • sqlite-[pysqlite|sqlcipher|aiosqlite] and postgresql-[psycopg2|asyncpg] supported
    • config does not store the password

    Issues:

    • retire sqlite-sqlcipher PRAGMA rekey and key. Password in config unsafe
    • authentication by pulling from a password manager not implemented
    • strict validation of postgresql SHOW/SET keys incomplete
