How to reflect database objects using Pony ORM?
database, mysql, orm, ponyorm, python
Solution
Currently PonyORM does not have something like `autoload=true`, so entities have to be declared in Python. We can add support of database reflection in the future.
Problem
I have an existing MySQL database that I want to reflect using PonyORM. I know I'm able to do that with SQLAlchemy: ``` engine = create_engine(...) Base = declarative_base(metadata=MetaData(bind=engine)) ... ... class MyTable(Base): __table__ = Table('table_name', Base.metadata, autoload=True) ``` Is there a similiar way to do the same with PonyORM? I couldn't find information about that in the website.
