<p class=MsoNormal>I am trying to work with megrok.rdb to connect to our Oracle
DB and I am running into some issues. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>First some background:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>
Grok 1.0<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>
megrok.rdb 0.10.0<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>
sqlalchemy 0.5.7 (and also 0.6beta1, though the issues are the same)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>
python 2.5.4<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have it all working except for my most important use
case, “reflecting” views. Now that terminology is weak since you
can’t really reflect a view. You can, however, define the view as a class
using Table(), defining the columns, and declaring a PK etc. What you
don’t want to do in this case is create the table, which is exactly what
megrok.rdb tries to do by default.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Is there some configuration flag or parameter to only map
the class and not go ahead and create the tables? Maybe something to pass
to __table_args__ like with “schema”. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Regards,<o:p></o:p></p>
