I have not tried it, but wouldn't the straight-forward
cur.execute("""
WITH ins_user AS (
INSERT INTO User
(LastName, FirstName, Gender, DateOfBirth, DateEnrolled)
VALUES (:last_name, :first_name, :gender, :dob, now())
RETURNING UserId)
INSERT INTO UserProfile
(UserId, DateEntered, FaveNumber, Activity)
VALUES ( (SELECT UserId FROM ins_user), now(), :fave_number :activity);
""",
dict(
first_name="Sara",
last_name="Jackson",
gender="F",
dob=datetime.date(1941, 1, 12),
fave_number=3,
activity="volleyball"
))
work?
