module sqlalchemy.ext.sessioncontext

class SessionContext(object)

A simple wrapper for ScopedRegistry that provides a current property which can be used to get, set, or remove the session in the current scope.

By default this object provides thread-local scoping, which is the default scope provided by sqlalchemy.util.ScopedRegistry.

Usage:

engine = create_engine(...)
def session_factory():
    return Session(bind_to=engine)
context = SessionContext(session_factory)

s = context.current # get thread-local session
context.current = Session(bind_to=other_engine) # set current session
del context.current # discard the thread-local session (a new one will
                    # be created on the next call to context.current)
def __init__(self, session_factory, scopefunc=None)
current = property()

Property used to get/set/del the session in the current scope.

def del_current(self)
def get_current(self)
mapper_extension = property()

Get a mapper extension that implements get_session using this context.
