Question: Would be ORM set in project milestones? about python-arango HOT 11 CLOSED

Perhaps then we could launch a separate package for ORM that depends on this one, keeps this one clean and for those of us who'd like the ORM, they can just install an additional package.

from python-arango.

My personal opinion is I'd like this to remain the clean, uncluttered low
level API it is. There is pyArango if someone wants an ORM.

the API complete in python and another person or group could start building
an ORM layer on top of it. I agree that the usage of this package closely
resembles arangosh so it has minimal learning curve. The ORM on top of it
could make things a lot simpler and quicker for developers.

Hi rafaelpivato,

Thank you for your interest in python-arango.
My priority is to making sure that I cover all of ArangoDB's API endpoints and that the API of python-arango itself is as minimal, efficient and clean as possible. ORM is definitely on my radar, however, and is certainly in my realm of exploration.

Yea for now the scope of this project will remain at the API level without the ORM.
Thanks for your interest in python-arango (version 3 is finally out now btw).

@kashifpk FYI: I've started on something that depends on both
python-arango and marshmallow (see https://github.com/sebastiancodes/marshmallow_arango) but I wouldn't call this the best thinkable ORM implementation.

@SebastianCodes this looks good. In the example, why do we need a model and a schema? In any case it's really something to begin with :-)

@SebastianCodes @joowani @rafaelpivato - I've started working on an orm layer for arango using python-arango. Please take a look here:

Your suggestions and opinions are welcome.

@kashifpk @SebastianCodes Nice integrations you've written guys! How do your implementations handle load_only / dump_only (i. e. if we want the user to be able to set some value through the API, but not get it) though?

from python-arango.

Or in this case two schemas should be used?

@ImAle - my plan was that arango-orm would be used within an API implementation layer so access rights (ready-only or write-only) would be handled by the API.
