Fetch table values using alembic and update to another table.

Question

I have oauth secret and oauth key in client table. Now I moving them to oauth credentials table which will be created during migration. Alembic produced following schema for upgrade.

from myapp.models import Client, ClientCredential
from alembic import op
import sqlalchemy as sa


def upgrade():
### commands auto generated by Alembic - please adjust! ###
    op.create_table('client_credential',
    sa.Column('id', sa.Integer(), nullable=False),
    sa.Column('created_at', sa.DateTime(), nullable=False),
    sa.Column('updated_at', sa.DateTime(), nullable=False),
    sa.Column('client_id', sa.Integer(), nullable=False),
    sa.Column('key', sa.String(length=22), nullable=False),
    sa.Column('secret', sa.String(length=44), nullable=False),
    sa.Column('is_active', sa.Boolean(), nullable=False),
    sa.ForeignKeyConstraint(['client_id'], ['client.id'], ),
    sa.PrimaryKeyConstraint('id'),
    sa.UniqueConstraint('key')
   )
   # Here I need to copy data from table A to newly created Table.
   # Now Client table will not have secret and key attributes
   clients = [{'secret': client.secret, 'key': client.key, 'is_active':True, 'client_id': client.id, 'created_at': sa.func.now(), 'updated_at': sa.func.now()} for client in Client.query.all()]
   op.bulk_insert(ClientCredential, clients)
   #Also replaced above two lines with 
   #connection = op.get_bind()
   #print connection.execute(Client, Client.query.all())
   op.drop_column(u'client', u'secret')
   op.drop_column(u'client', u'key')

Once script enters clients or connection.execute alembic script hangs. After enabling sqlalchemy logs, Base.Engine is empty. Also tried op.execute, no luck.

How can I copy the values from client table to client_credential table using alembic migration?

Answer 1

Finally I solved the problem. Created raw sql to fetch the values and used bulk_insert.

def upgrade():
    ### commands auto generated by Alembic - please adjust! ###
    op.create_table('client_credential',
    sa.Column('id', sa.Integer(), nullable=False),
    sa.Column('created_at', sa.DateTime(), nullable=False),
    sa.Column('updated_at', sa.DateTime(), nullable=False),
    sa.Column('client_id', sa.Integer(), nullable=False),
    sa.Column('key', sa.String(length=22), nullable=False),
    sa.Column('secret', sa.String(length=44), nullable=False),
    sa.Column('is_active', sa.Boolean(), nullable=False),
    sa.ForeignKeyConstraint(['client_id'], ['client.id'], ),
    sa.PrimaryKeyConstraint('id'),
    sa.UniqueConstraint('key')
    )
    #http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15725859/sqlalchemy-alembic-bulk-insert-fails-str-object-has-no-attribute-autoincre
    client_credential = sa.sql.table('client_credential',
        sa.Column('client_id', sa.Integer, nullable=False),
        sa.Column('is_active', sa.Boolean, nullable=False, default=True),
        sa.Column('key', sa.String(22), nullable=False, default=True),
        sa.Column('secret', sa.String(22), nullable=False, default=True),
        sa.Column('created_at', sa.DateTime, nullable=False, default=sa.func.now()),
        sa.Column('updated_at', sa.DateTime, nullable=False, default=sa.func.now()),
    )
    conn = op.get_bind()
    res = conn.execute("select secret, key, id from client")
    results = res.fetchall()
    clients = [{'secret': r[0], 'key': r[1], 'is_active':True, 'client_id': r[2], 'created_at': datetime.datetime.now(), 'updated_at': datetime.datetime.now()} for r in results]
    op.bulk_insert(client_credential, clients)
    op.drop_column(u'client', u'secret')
    op.drop_column(u'client', u'key')
    ### end Alembic commands ###

Answer 2

You can create a DBSession with sqlalchemy engine bind, then you can avoid use SQL query.

from myapp.models import Client, ClientCredential
from alembic import op, context
import sqlalchemy as sa


def upgrade():
    ### commands auto generated by Alembic - please adjust! ###
    url = context.config.get_main_option("sqlalchemy.url")
    engine = sa.create_engine(url)
    DBSession.configure(bind=engine)

    op.create_table(
        'client_credential',
        sa.Column('id', sa.Integer(), nullable=False),
        sa.Column('created_at', sa.DateTime(), nullable=False),
        sa.Column('updated_at', sa.DateTime(), nullable=False),
        sa.Column('client_id', sa.Integer(), nullable=False),
        sa.Column('key', sa.String(length=22), nullable=False),
        sa.Column('secret', sa.String(length=44), nullable=False),
        sa.Column('is_active', sa.Boolean(), nullable=False),
        sa.ForeignKeyConstraint(['client_id'], ['client.id'], ),
        sa.PrimaryKeyConstraint('id'),
        sa.UniqueConstraint('key'))
    # Here I need to copy data from table A to newly created Table.
    # Now Client table will not have secret and key attributes
    clients = [
        {'secret': client.secret,
         'key': client.key,
         'is_active': True,
         'client_id': client.id,
         'created_at': sa.func.now(),
         'updated_at': sa.func.now()}
        for client in Client.query.all()]
    op.bulk_insert(ClientCredential, clients)
    #Also replaced above two lines with
    #connection = op.get_bind()
    #print connection.execute(Client, Client.query.all())
    op.drop_column(u'client', u'secret')
    op.drop_column(u'client', u'key')
