I am trying to write a function that takes kwargs as a param and
generates an update statement where the rows to be updated are
specified in an in clause.
Something like this:
def update_by_in(self, **kwargs):
filter_group = []
for col in kwargs['query_params']:
# obviously this line does not work as col is a string,
but this is the intent
filter_group.append(col.in_(tuple(kwargs['query_params'][col])))
self._session.query(self.model_class).filter(*filter_group).update(kwargs['values'])
self.update_by_in(
**{'query_params': {'companyCode': ['A', 'B', 'C']},
'values': {'portfolioName': 'test'}}
)
Is there a way to do this? I think I need to use setattr in building
up the filter_group list, but I'm not quite sure how to do it.
If it's any help, on this page:
https://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/14/core/metadata.html
it has this:
# access the column "employee_id":
employees.columns.employee_id
# or just
employees.c.employee_id
# via string
employees.c['employee_id']
