compressed

This module provide some custom data types that automatically compress before writing to the database.

class sqlalchemy_mate.types.compressed.BaseCompressedType(*args, **kwargs)[source]
load_dialect_impl(dialect)[source]

Return a TypeEngine object corresponding to a dialect.

This is an end-user override hook that can be used to provide differing types depending on the given dialect. It is used by the TypeDecorator implementation of type_engine() to help determine what type should ultimately be returned for a given TypeDecorator.

By default returns self.impl.

process_bind_param(value, dialect)[source]

Receive a bound parameter value to be converted.

Custom subclasses of _types.TypeDecorator should override this method to provide custom behaviors for incoming data values. This method is called at statement execution time and is passed the literal Python data value which is to be associated with a bound parameter in the statement.

The operation could be anything desired to perform custom behavior, such as transforming or serializing data. This could also be used as a hook for validating logic.

Parameters
  • value – Data to operate upon, of any type expected by this method in the subclass. Can be None.

  • dialect – the Dialect in use.

_types.TypeDecorator.process_result_value()

process_result_value(value, dialect)[source]

Receive a result-row column value to be converted.

Custom subclasses of _types.TypeDecorator should override this method to provide custom behaviors for data values being received in result rows coming from the database. This method is called at result fetching time and is passed the literal Python data value that’s extracted from a database result row.

The operation could be anything desired to perform custom behavior, such as transforming or deserializing data.

Parameters
  • value – Data to operate upon, of any type expected by this method in the subclass. Can be None.

  • dialect – the Dialect in use.
