"""SQL connections, SQL execution and high-level DB-API interface.
The engine package defines the basic components used to interface
DB-API modules with higher-level statement construction,
connection-management, execution and result contexts. The primary
"entry point" class into this package is the Engine and its public
constructor ``create_engine()``.
This package includes:
base.py
Defines interface classes and some implementation classes which
comprise the basic components used to interface between a DB-API,
constructed and plain-text statements, connections, transactions,
and results.
default.py
Contains default implementations of some of the components defined
in base.py. All current database dialects use the classes in
default.py as base classes for their own database-specific
implementations.
strategies.py
The mechanics of constructing ``Engine`` objects are represented
here. Defines the ``EngineStrategy`` class which represents how
to go from arguments specified to the ``create_engine()``
function, to a fully constructed ``Engine``, including
initialization of connection pooling, dialects, and specific
subclasses of ``Engine``.
threadlocal.py
The ``TLEngine`` class is defined here, which is a subclass of
the generic ``Engine`` and tracks ``Connection`` and
``Transaction`` objects against the identity of the current
thread. This allows certain programming patterns based around
the concept of a "thread-local connection" to be possible.
The ``TLEngine`` is created by using the "threadlocal" engine
strategy in conjunction with the ``create_engine()`` function.
url.py
Defines the ``URL`` class which represents the individual
components of a string URL passed to ``create_engine()``. Also
defines a basic module-loading strategy for the dialect specifier
within a URL.

def create_engine(*args, **kwargs):
"""Create a new :class:`.Engine` instance.
The standard calling form is to send the URL as the
first positional argument, usually a string
that indicates database dialect and connection arguments::
engine = create_engine("postgresql://scott:tiger@localhost/test")
Additional keyword arguments may then follow it which
establish various options on the resulting :class:`.Engine`
and its underlying :class:`.Dialect` and :class:`.Pool`
constructs::
engine = create_engine("mysql://scott:tiger@hostname/dbname",
encoding='latin1', echo=True)
The string form of the URL is
``dialect[+driver]://user:password@host/dbname[?key=value..]``, where
``dialect`` is a database name such as ``mysql``, ``oracle``,
``postgresql``, etc., and ``driver`` the name of a DBAPI, such as
``psycopg2``, ``pyodbc``, ``cx_oracle``, etc. Alternatively,
the URL can be an instance of :class:`~sqlalchemy.engine.url.URL`.
``**kwargs`` takes a wide variety of options which are routed
towards their appropriate components. Arguments may be specific to
the :class:`.Engine`, the underlying :class:`.Dialect`, as well as the
:class:`.Pool`. Specific dialects also accept keyword arguments that
are unique to that dialect. Here, we describe the parameters
that are common to most :func:`.create_engine()` usage.
Once established, the newly resulting :class:`.Engine` will
request a connection from the underlying :class:`.Pool` once
:meth:`.Engine.connect` is called, or a method which depends on it
such as :meth:`.Engine.execute` is invoked. The :class:`.Pool` in turn
will establish the first actual DBAPI connection when this request
is received. The :func:`.create_engine` call itself does **not**
establish any actual DBAPI connections directly.
.. seealso::
:doc:`/core/engines`
:doc:`/dialects/index`
:ref:`connections_toplevel`
:param case_sensitive=True: if False, result column names
will match in a case-insensitive fashion, that is,
``row['SomeColumn']``.
:param connect_args: a dictionary of options which will be
passed directly to the DBAPI's ``connect()`` method as
additional keyword arguments. See the example
at :ref:`custom_dbapi_args`.
:param convert_unicode=False: if set to True, causes
all :class:`.String` datatypes to act as though the
:paramref:`.String.convert_unicode` flag has been set to ``True``,
regardless of a setting of ``False`` on an individual :class:`.String`
type. This has the effect of causing all :class:`.String` -based
columns to accommodate Python Unicode objects directly as though the
datatype were the :class:`.Unicode` type.
.. deprecated:: 1.3
The :paramref:`.create_engine.convert_unicode` parameter
is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
All modern DBAPIs now support Python Unicode directly and this
parameter is unnecessary.
:param creator: a callable which returns a DBAPI connection.
This creation function will be passed to the underlying
connection pool and will be used to create all new database
connections. Usage of this function causes connection
parameters specified in the URL argument to be bypassed.
:param echo=False: if True, the Engine will log all statements
as well as a ``repr()`` of their parameter lists to the default log
handler, which defaults to ``sys.stdout`` for output. If set to the
string ``"debug"``, result rows will be printed to the standard output
as well. The ``echo`` attribute of ``Engine`` can be modified at any
time to turn logging on and off; direct control of logging is also
available using the standard Python ``logging`` module.
.. seealso::
:ref:`dbengine_logging` - further detail on how to configure
logging.
:param echo_pool=False: if True, the connection pool will log
informational output such as when connections are invalidated
as well as when connections are recycled to the default log handler,
which defaults to ``sys.stdout`` for output. If set to the string
``"debug"``, the logging will include pool checkouts and checkins.
Direct control of logging is also available using the standard Python
``logging`` module.
.. seealso::
:ref:`dbengine_logging` - further detail on how to configure
logging.
:param empty_in_strategy: The SQL compilation strategy to use when
rendering an IN or NOT IN expression for :meth:`.ColumnOperators.in_`
where the right-hand side
is an empty set. This is a string value that may be one of
``static``, ``dynamic``, or ``dynamic_warn``. The ``static``
strategy is the default, and an IN comparison to an empty set
will generate a simple false expression "1 != 1". The ``dynamic``
strategy behaves like that of SQLAlchemy 1.1 and earlier, emitting
a false expression of the form "expr != expr", which has the effect
of evaluting to NULL in the case of a null expression.
``dynamic_warn`` is the same as ``dynamic``, however also emits a
warning when an empty set is encountered; this because the "dynamic"
comparison is typically poorly performing on most databases.
.. versionadded:: 1.2 Added the ``empty_in_strategy`` setting and
additionally defaulted the behavior for empty-set IN comparisons
to a static boolean expression.
:param encoding: Defaults to ``utf-8``. This is the string
encoding used by SQLAlchemy for string encode/decode
operations which occur within SQLAlchemy, **outside of
the DBAPI.** Most modern DBAPIs feature some degree of
direct support for Python ``unicode`` objects,
what you see in Python 2 as a string of the form
``u'some string'``. For those scenarios where the
DBAPI is detected as not supporting a Python ``unicode``
object, this encoding is used to determine the
source/destination encoding. It is **not used**
for those cases where the DBAPI handles unicode
directly.
To properly configure a system to accommodate Python
``unicode`` objects, the DBAPI should be
configured to handle unicode to the greatest
degree as is appropriate - see
the notes on unicode pertaining to the specific
target database in use at :ref:`dialect_toplevel`.
Areas where string encoding may need to be accommodated
outside of the DBAPI include zero or more of:
* the values passed to bound parameters, corresponding to
the :class:`.Unicode` type or the :class:`.String` type
when ``convert_unicode`` is ``True``;
* the values returned in result set columns corresponding
to the :class:`.Unicode` type or the :class:`.String`
type when ``convert_unicode`` is ``True``;
* the string SQL statement passed to the DBAPI's
``cursor.execute()`` method;
* the string names of the keys in the bound parameter
dictionary passed to the DBAPI's ``cursor.execute()``
as well as ``cursor.setinputsizes()`` methods;
* the string column names retrieved from the DBAPI's
``cursor.description`` attribute.
When using Python 3, the DBAPI is required to support
*all* of the above values as Python ``unicode`` objects,
which in Python 3 are just known as ``str``. In Python 2,
the DBAPI does not specify unicode behavior at all,
so SQLAlchemy must make decisions for each of the above
values on a per-DBAPI basis - implementations are
completely inconsistent in their behavior.
:param execution_options: Dictionary execution options which will
be applied to all connections. See
:meth:`~sqlalchemy.engine.Connection.execution_options`
:param implicit_returning=True: When ``True``, a RETURNING-
compatible construct, if available, will be used to
fetch newly generated primary key values when a single row
INSERT statement is emitted with no existing returning()
clause. This applies to those backends which support RETURNING
or a compatible construct, including PostgreSQL, Firebird, Oracle,
Microsoft SQL Server. Set this to ``False`` to disable
the automatic usage of RETURNING.
:param isolation_level: this string parameter is interpreted by various
dialects in order to affect the transaction isolation level of the
database connection. The parameter essentially accepts some subset of
these string arguments: ``"SERIALIZABLE"``, ``"REPEATABLE_READ"``,
``"READ_COMMITTED"``, ``"READ_UNCOMMITTED"`` and ``"AUTOCOMMIT"``.
Behavior here varies per backend, and
individual dialects should be consulted directly.
Note that the isolation level can also be set on a
per-:class:`.Connection` basis as well, using the
:paramref:`.Connection.execution_options.isolation_level`
feature.

:param label_length=None: optional integer value which limits
the size of dynamically generated column labels to that many
characters. If less than 6, labels are generated as
"_(counter)". If ``None``, the value of
``dialect.max_identifier_length`` is used instead.
:param listeners: A list of one or more
:class:`~sqlalchemy.interfaces.PoolListener` objects which will
receive connection pool events.
:param logging_name: String identifier which will be used within
the "name" field of logging records generated within the
"sqlalchemy.engine" logger. Defaults to a hexstring of the
object's id.
:param max_overflow=10: the number of connections to allow in
connection pool "overflow", that is connections that can be
opened above and beyond the pool_size setting, which defaults
to five. this is only used with :class:`~sqlalchemy.pool.QueuePool`.
:param module=None: reference to a Python module object (the module
itself, not its string name). Specifies an alternate DBAPI module to
be used by the engine's dialect. Each sub-dialect references a
specific DBAPI which will be imported before first connect. This
parameter causes the import to be bypassed, and the given module to
be used instead. Can be used for testing of DBAPIs as well as to
inject "mock" DBAPI implementations into the :class:`.Engine`.
:param paramstyle=None: The `paramstyle <http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0249/#paramstyle>`_
to use when rendering bound parameters. This style defaults to the
one recommended by the DBAPI itself, which is retrieved from the
``.paramstyle`` attribute of the DBAPI. However, most DBAPIs accept
more than one paramstyle, and in particular it may be desirable
to change a "named" paramstyle into a "positional" one, or vice versa.
When this attribute is passed, it should be one of the values
``"qmark"``, ``"numeric"``, ``"named"``, ``"format"`` or
``"pyformat"``, and should correspond to a parameter style known
to be supported by the DBAPI in use.
:param pool=None: an already-constructed instance of
:class:`~sqlalchemy.pool.Pool`, such as a
:class:`~sqlalchemy.pool.QueuePool` instance. If non-None, this
pool will be used directly as the underlying connection pool
for the engine, bypassing whatever connection parameters are
present in the URL argument. For information on constructing
connection pools manually, see :ref:`pooling_toplevel`.
:param poolclass=None: a :class:`~sqlalchemy.pool.Pool`
subclass, which will be used to create a connection pool
instance using the connection parameters given in the URL. Note
this differs from ``pool`` in that you don't actually
instantiate the pool in this case, you just indicate what type
of pool to be used.
:param pool_logging_name: String identifier which will be used within
the "name" field of logging records generated within the
"sqlalchemy.pool" logger. Defaults to a hexstring of the object's
id.
:param pool_pre_ping: boolean, if True will enable the connection pool
"pre-ping" feature that tests connections for liveness upon
each checkout.
.. versionadded:: 1.2
.. seealso::
:ref:`pool_disconnects_pessimistic`
:param pool_size=5: the number of connections to keep open
inside the connection pool. This used with
:class:`~sqlalchemy.pool.QueuePool` as
well as :class:`~sqlalchemy.pool.SingletonThreadPool`. With
:class:`~sqlalchemy.pool.QueuePool`, a ``pool_size`` setting
of 0 indicates no limit; to disable pooling, set ``poolclass`` to
:class:`~sqlalchemy.pool.NullPool` instead.
:param pool_recycle=-1: this setting causes the pool to recycle
connections after the given number of seconds has passed. It
defaults to -1, or no timeout. For example, setting to 3600
means connections will be recycled after one hour. Note that
MySQL in particular will disconnect automatically if no
activity is detected on a connection for eight hours (although
this is configurable with the MySQLDB connection itself and the
server configuration as well).
.. seealso::
:ref:`pool_setting_recycle`
:param pool_reset_on_return='rollback': set the
:paramref:`.Pool.reset_on_return` parameter of the underlying
:class:`.Pool` object, which can be set to the values
``"rollback"``, ``"commit"``, or ``None``.
.. seealso::
:paramref:`.Pool.reset_on_return`
:param pool_timeout=30: number of seconds to wait before giving
up on getting a connection from the pool. This is only used
with :class:`~sqlalchemy.pool.QueuePool`.
:param pool_use_lifo=False: use LIFO (last-in-first-out) when retrieving
connections from :class:`.QueuePool` instead of FIFO
(first-in-first-out). Using LIFO, a server-side timeout scheme can
reduce the number of connections used during non- peak periods of
use. When planning for server-side timeouts, ensure that a recycle or
pre-ping strategy is in use to gracefully handle stale connections.

:param plugins: string list of plugin names to load. See
:class:`.CreateEnginePlugin` for background.
.. versionadded:: 1.2.3
:param strategy='plain': selects alternate engine implementations.
Currently available are:
* the ``threadlocal`` strategy, which is described in
:ref:`threadlocal_strategy`;
* the ``mock`` strategy, which dispatches all statement
execution to a function passed as the argument ``executor``.

The dictionary is typically produced from a config file.
The keys of interest to ``engine_from_config()`` should be prefixed, e.g.
