Default entity collection implementation

This module provides the Entity base class, as well as its metaclass EntityMeta.

Ext package

This module provides support for defining the fields (columns) of your entities. Elixir currently supports two syntaxes to do so: the default Attribute-based syntax as well as the has_field DSL statement.

This module provides support for defining several options on your Elixir entities. There are three different kinds of options that can be set up, and for this there are three different statements: using_options, using_table_options and using_mapper_options.

This module provides support for defining properties on your entities. It both provides, the Property class which acts as a building block for common properties such as fields and relationships (for those, please consult the corresponding modules), but also provides some more specialized properties, such as ColumnProperty and Synonym. It also provides the GenericProperty class which allows you to wrap any SQLAlchemy property, and its DSL-syntax equivalent: has_property.

Some helper functions to get by without Python 2.4

This module provides support for defining relationships between your Elixir entities. Elixir currently supports two syntaxes to do so: the default Attribute-based syntax which supports the following types of relationships: ManyToOne, OneToMany, OneToOne and ManyToMany, as well as a DSL-based syntax which provides the following statements: belongs_to, has_many, has_one and has_and_belongs_to_many.

Clear all mappers, clear the session, and clear all metadatas. Optionally drops the tables.

Create the necessary tables for all declared entities

Drop tables for all declared entities

Setup the table and mapper of all entities in the default entity collection.

This is called automatically if any entity of the collection is configured with the autosetup option and it is first accessed, instanciated (called) or the create_all method of a metadata containing tables from any of those entities is called.
