Question

I’m using sqlite with sqlalchemy:

when I execute this command:

engine.execute("select * from teams");
<sqlalchemy.engine.base.ResultProxy object at 0x245b190>

Thus, it works as it returns a reference

I’ve a .py file which contain the class Team:

class Team(Base):
        __tablename__ = 'teams'
        id = Column(Integer,autoincrement=False, primary_key=True)
        name = Column(String(255))
        flag = Column(String(255))
        url = Column(String(255))

I import Team from classes import

But when I try to use the ORM, i get the following error:

for instance in session.query(Team):
...     print instance.id
...

Answer 1

It says it can’t find the table teams- confirm with SqlLite ( I use firefox plugin) that it exists and that is the name. Also, copy the SQL in the error message in a Sqlite window and see if it runs.
