Unbind object from session in python

Unbind object from session in python

In SQLAlchemy, you can unbind an object from a session by using the expunge() method or the expunge_all() method of the session object. Unbinding an object from a session means that the object is no longer associated with that session, and any changes made to the object will not be persisted to the database when the session is flushed or committed.

Here's how you can unbind an object from a session:

from sqlalchemy import create_engine, Column, Integer, String from sqlalchemy.orm import Session from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base # Create a SQLAlchemy engine and session engine = create_engine('sqlite:///my_database.db') Base = declarative_base() session = Session(engine) # Define a SQLAlchemy model class MyModel(Base): __tablename__ = 'my_table' id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True) name = Column(String) # Create an instance of the model obj = MyModel(name='example') # Add the object to the session session.add(obj) # Unbind the object from the session session.expunge(obj) # Or session.expunge_all() to unbind all objects in the session # Now the object is unbound from the session # Any changes to obj will not be persisted to the database when the session is flushed or committed 

In the code above:

  1. We create a SQLAlchemy engine and a session.
  2. We define a SQLAlchemy model called MyModel.
  3. We create an instance of the model, obj.
  4. We add obj to the session using session.add(obj).
  5. We unbind the object from the session using session.expunge(obj).

After calling session.expunge(obj), obj is no longer associated with the session, and any changes to obj will not be persisted to the database when the session is flushed or committed.

You can use session.expunge_all() to unbind all objects in the session if you want to clear the entire session.

    • Code:
      from flask import Flask, session app = Flask(__name__) app.secret_key = "super_secret_key" # Storing an object in the session session["user"] = {"name": "Alice", "age": 30} # Removing the object from the session session.pop("user", None) # The object is removed from the session 
  3. How to Expunge Object from SQLAlchemy Session in Python

    • Description: Demonstrates how to expunge an object from a SQLAlchemy session to prevent changes from persisting.
    • Code:
      # Set up SQLAlchemy session engine = create_engine("sqlite:///example.db") session = Session(engine) # Create and add an object user = User(name="Bob") session.add(user) session.commit() # Expunge the object from the session session.expunge(user) # The object is now detached from the session 
  4. Using session.expunge_all() in SQLAlchemy

    • Description: Shows how to use session.expunge_all() to unbind all objects from a SQLAlchemy session.
    • Code:
      # Set up SQLAlchemy session engine = create_engine("sqlite:///example.db") session = Session(engine) # Add some objects user1 = User(name="Charlie") user2 = User(name="Dana") session.add(user1) session.add(user2) session.commit() # Unbind all objects from the session session.expunge_all() # All objects are now detached from the session 
  5. How to Close SQLAlchemy Session Without Committing Changes

    • Description: Demonstrates how to close a SQLAlchemy session without committing changes, which effectively unbinds all objects from the session.
    • Code:
      # Set up SQLAlchemy session engine = create_engine("sqlite:///example.db") session = Session(engine) # Add and modify an object without committing user = User(name="Eve") session.add(user) user.name = "Eva" # Close the session without committing session.close() # All changes are lost, and objects are unbound 
  6. Detaching Object from SQLAlchemy Session in Python

    • Description: Describes how to detach an object from a SQLAlchemy session without expunging it.
    • Code:
      # Set up SQLAlchemy session engine = create_engine("sqlite:///example.db") session = Session(engine) # Add an object to the session user = User(name="Frank") session.add(user) session.commit() # Detach the object from the session session.close() # Closing the session detaches the object without expunging it 
  7. Using session.rollback() to Unbind Object from SQLAlchemy Session

    • Description: Demonstrates how to use session.rollback() to undo changes and unbind objects from a SQLAlchemy session.
    • Code:
      # Set up SQLAlchemy session engine = create_engine("sqlite:///example.db") session = Session(engine) # Add and modify an object user = User(name="Grace") session.add(user) user.name = "Gracie" # Rollback the session to undo changes and unbind objects session.rollback() # Reverts all changes and unbinds objects 
  8. How to Detach SQLAlchemy Object Without Losing Changes

    • Description: Explains how to detach a SQLAlchemy object without losing changes, allowing it to be re-attached to another session.
    • Code:
      # Set up SQLAlchemy session engine = create_engine("sqlite:///example.db") session = Session(engine) # Add and modify an object user = User(name="Hannah") session.add(user) session.commit() # Detach the object without losing changes session.expunge(user) # The object is detached and can be re-attached to another session 
  9. How to Remove Session Variables in Flask

    • Description: Shows how to remove session variables in Flask to unbind object references.
    • Code:
      from flask import Flask, session app = Flask(__name__) app.secret_key = "secret" # Adding and removing session variables session["user"] = {"name": "Ian", "age": 25} # Remove session variable session.pop("user", None) # Unbinds the object from the session 
  10. Rebinding Objects to a New SQLAlchemy Session

    • Description: Describes how to rebind objects to a new SQLAlchemy session after expunging or detaching them.
    • Code:
      # Set up SQLAlchemy session engine = create_engine("sqlite:///example.db") session = Session(engine) # Add and commit an object user = User(name="Jack") session.add(user) session.commit() # Expunge the object from the session session.expunge(user) # Rebind the object to a new session new_session = Session(engine) new_session.add(user) # The object is now bound to the new session
