Events
plateforme.core.database.events
This module provides utilities for managing database events within the Plateforme framework using SQLAlchemy features.
contains
Return True if the given target/ident/fn is set up to listen.
listen
Register a listener function for the given target.
The :func:.listen
function is part of the primary interface for the
SQLAlchemy event system, documented at :ref:event_toplevel
.
e.g.::
from sqlalchemy import event
from sqlalchemy.schema import UniqueConstraint
def unique_constraint_name(const, table):
const.name = "uq_%s_%s" % (
table.name,
list(const.columns)[0].name
)
event.listen(
UniqueConstraint,
"after_parent_attach",
unique_constraint_name)
:param bool insert: The default behavior for event handlers is to append
the decorated user defined function to an internal list of registered
event listeners upon discovery. If a user registers a function with
insert=True
, SQLAlchemy will insert (prepend) the function to the
internal list upon discovery. This feature is not typically used or
recommended by the SQLAlchemy maintainers, but is provided to ensure
certain user defined functions can run before others, such as when
:ref:Changing the sql_mode in MySQL <mysql_sql_mode>
.
:param bool named: When using named argument passing, the names listed in
the function argument specification will be used as keys in the
dictionary.
See :ref:event_named_argument_styles
.
:param bool once: Private/Internal API usage. Deprecated. This parameter
would provide that an event function would run only once per given
target. It does not however imply automatic de-registration of the
listener function; associating an arbitrarily high number of listeners
without explicitly removing them will cause memory to grow unbounded even
if once=True
is specified.
:param bool propagate: The propagate
kwarg is available when working
with ORM instrumentation and mapping events.
See :class:_ormevent.MapperEvents
and
:meth:_ormevent.MapperEvents.before_mapper_configured
for examples.
:param bool retval: This flag applies only to specific event listeners,
each of which includes documentation explaining when it should be used.
By default, no listener ever requires a return value.
However, some listeners do support special behaviors for return values,
and include in their documentation that the retval=True
flag is
necessary for a return value to be processed.
Event listener suites that make use of :paramref:_event.listen.retval
include :class:_events.ConnectionEvents
and
:class:_ormevent.AttributeEvents
.
.. note::
The :func:`.listen` function cannot be called at the same time
that the target event is being run. This has implications
for thread safety, and also means an event cannot be added
from inside the listener function for itself. The list of
events to be run are present inside of a mutable collection
that can't be changed during iteration.
Event registration and removal is not intended to be a "high
velocity" operation; it is a configurational operation. For
systems that need to quickly associate and deassociate with
events at high scale, use a mutable structure that is handled
from inside of a single listener.

listens_for
listens_for(
target: Any, identifier: str, *args: Any, **kw: Any
) -> Callable[[Callable[..., Any]], Callable[..., Any]]
Decorate a function as a listener for the given target + identifier.
The :func:.listens_for
decorator is part of the primary interface for the
SQLAlchemy event system, documented at :ref:event_toplevel
.
This function generally shares the same kwargs as :func:.listens
.
e.g.::
from sqlalchemy import event
from sqlalchemy.schema import UniqueConstraint
@event.listens_for(UniqueConstraint, "after_parent_attach")
def unique_constraint_name(const, table):
const.name = "uq_%s_%s" % (
table.name,
list(const.columns)[0].name
)
A given function can also be invoked for only the first invocation
of the event using the once
argument::
@event.listens_for(Mapper, "before_configure", once=True)
def on_config():
do_config()
.. warning:: The once
argument does not imply automatic de-registration
of the listener function after it has been invoked a first time; a
listener entry will remain associated with the target object.
Associating an arbitrarily high number of listeners without explicitly
removing them will cause memory to grow unbounded even if once=True
is specified.

:func:`.listen` - general description of event listening
Source code in .venv/lib/python3.12/site-packages/sqlalchemy/event/api.py
remove
Remove an event listener.
The arguments here should match exactly those which were sent to
:func:.listen
; all the event registration which proceeded as a result
of this call will be reverted by calling :func:.remove
with the same
arguments.
e.g.::
# if a function was registered like this...
@event.listens_for(SomeMappedClass, "before_insert", propagate=True)
def my_listener_function(*arg):
pass
# ... it's removed like this
event.remove(SomeMappedClass, "before_insert", my_listener_function)
Above, the listener function associated with SomeMappedClass
was also
propagated to subclasses of SomeMappedClass
; the :func:.remove
function will revert all of these operations.
.. note::
The :func:`.remove` function cannot be called at the same time
that the target event is being run. This has implications
for thread safety, and also means an event cannot be removed
from inside the listener function for itself. The list of
events to be run are present inside of a mutable collection
that can't be changed during iteration.
Event registration and removal is not intended to be a "high
velocity" operation; it is a configurational operation. For
systems that need to quickly associate and deassociate with
events at high scale, use a mutable structure that is handled
from inside of a single listener.
