SQLAlchemy 是一个Python 的SQL 工具包以及数据库对象映射框架。它包含整套企业级持久化模式，专门为高效和高性能的数据库访问。
示例代码：
from sqlalchemy import Column, DateTime, String, Integer, ForeignKey, func
from sqlalchemy.orm import relationship, backref
from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base
Base = declarative_base()
class Department(Base):
__tablename__ = 'department'
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
name = Column(String)
class Employee(Base):
__tablename__ = 'employee'
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
name = Column(String)
# Use default=func.now() to set the default hiring time
# of an Employee to be the current time when an
# Employee record was created
hired_on = Column(DateTime, default=func.now())
department_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey('department.id'))
# Use cascade='delete,all' to propagate the deletion of a Department onto its Employees
department = relationship(
Department,
backref=backref('employees',
uselist=True,
cascade='delete,all'))
from sqlalchemy import create_engine
engine = create_engine('sqlite:///orm_in_detail.sqlite')
from sqlalchemy.orm import sessionmaker
session = sessionmaker()
session.configure(bind=engine)
Base.metadata.create_all(engine)
