relationship(), to eliminate confusion over the relational
algebra term. relation() however will remain available
in equal capacity for the foreseeable future. [ticket:1740]
- added READMEs to all examples in each __init__.py and added to sphinx documentation
- added versioning example
- removed vertical/vertical.py, the dictlikes are more straightforward
Explicit imports make it easier for users to understand the examples.
Additionally a lot of the examples were fixed to work with the changes in the
0.5.x code base. One small correction to the Case expression. Thanks a bunch
to Adam Lowry! Fixes#717.
accept a single or list of AttributeExtensions using the
"extension" keyword argument.
- Added a Validator AttributeExtension, as well as a
@validates decorator which is used in a similar fashion
as @reconstructor, and marks a method as validating
one or more mapped attributes.
- removed validate_attributes example, the new methodology replaces it
is fired before the mutation actually occurs. Addtionally,
the append() and set() methods must now return the given value,
which is used as the value to be used in the mutation operation.
This allows creation of validating AttributeListeners which
raise before the action actually occurs, and which can change
the given value into something else before its used.
A new example "validate_attributes.py" shows one such recipe
for doing this. AttributeListener helper functions are
also on the way.
