Falcon Middleware: SQLAlchemy Integration

The falcon-sqla package provides a middleware component for managing SQLAlchemy sessions. The manager component can also serve as a base building block or a recipe for more complex use cases, such as applications leveraging multiple database binds.

Installation

Simply install the falcon-sqla package from PyPi:

$ pip install falcon-sqla

For more installation options, see Installation.

Usage

Configuring the falcon_sqla.Manager middleware in a falcon.App:

engine = create_engine('dialect+driver://my/database')
manager = falcon_sqla.Manager(engine)

app = falcon.App(middleware=[manager.middleware])

# The database session will be available as req.context.session

More usage scenarios are covered in the User Guide.
