In MySQL, we can use AUTO_INCREMENT = ? to automatically insert a primary key value. How do we do it in SQLAlchemy/Alembic? Thanks very much!

auto_increment is emitted within a CREATE TABLE if the type is “Integer, primary_key=True”. Within Alembic using alter_column, you need to specify it to alter_column.
See “autoincrement” and “existing_autoincrement” for alter_column() at:
https://alembic.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ops.html#alembic.operations.Operations.alter_column
See autoincrement for Column, note this defaults to True and you normally don’t need to change it, at:
