peewee
======

Peewee is a simple and small ORM. It has few (but expressive) concepts, making it easy to learn and intuitive to use.

* a small, expressive ORM
* python 2.7+ and 3.4+
* supports sqlite, mysql, postgresql and cockroachdb
* tons of `extensions <http://docs.peewee-orm.com/en/latest/peewee/playhouse.html>`_

Examples
--------

Defining models is similar to Django or SQLAlchemy:

.. code-block:: python

    from peewee import *
    import datetime


    db = SqliteDatabase('my_database.db')

    class BaseModel(Model):
        class Meta:
            database = db

    class User(BaseModel):
        username = CharField(unique=True)

    class Tweet(BaseModel):
        user = ForeignKeyField(User, backref='tweets')
        message = TextField()
        created_date = DateTimeField(default=datetime.datetime.now)
        is_published = BooleanField(default=True)

Connect to the database and create tables:

.. code-block:: python

    db.connect()
    db.create_tables([User, Tweet])

Create a few rows:

.. code-block:: python

    charlie = User.create(username='charlie')
    huey = User(username='huey')
    huey.save()

    # No need to set `is_published` or `created_date` since they
    # will just use the default values we specified.
    Tweet.create(user=charlie, message='My first tweet')

Queries are expressive and composable:

.. code-block:: python

    # A simple query selecting a user.
    User.get(User.username == 'charlie')

    # Get tweets created by one of several users.
    usernames = ['charlie', 'huey', 'mickey']
    users = User.select().where(User.username.in_(usernames))
    tweets = Tweet.select().where(Tweet.user.in_(users))

    # We could accomplish the same using a JOIN:
    tweets = (Tweet
              .select()
              .join(User)
              .where(User.username.in_(usernames)))

    # How many tweets were published today?
    tweets_today = (Tweet
                    .select()
                    .where(
                        (Tweet.created_date >= datetime.date.today()) &
                        (Tweet.is_published == True))
                    .count())

    # Paginate the user table and show me page 3 (users 41-60).
    User.select().order_by(User.username).paginate(3, 20)

    # Order users by the number of tweets they've created:
    tweet_ct = fn.Count(Tweet.id)
    users = (User
             .select(User, tweet_ct.alias('ct'))
             .join(Tweet, JOIN.LEFT_OUTER)
             .group_by(User)
             .order_by(tweet_ct.desc()))

    # Do an atomic update (for illustrative purposes only, imagine a simple
    # table for tracking a "count" associated with each URL). We don't want to
    # naively get the save in two separate steps since this is prone to race
    # conditions.
    Counter.update(count=Counter.count + 1).where(Counter.url == request.url)
