Such -systems need a schema that tells them how to store that information. So -before starting the server for the first time it’s important to create -that schema.</p> -<p>Such a schema can be created by piping the <cite>schema.sql</cite> file into the -<cite>sqlite3</cite> command as follows:</p> -<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="n">sqlite3</span> <span class="o">/</span><span class="n">tmp</span><span class="o">/</span><span class="n">flaskr</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">db</span> <span class="o"><</span> <span class="n">schema</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">sql</span> -</pre></div> -</div> -<p>The downside of this is that it requires the sqlite3 command to be -installed which is not necessarily the case on every system. Also one has -to provide the path to the database there which leaves some place for -errors. It’s a good idea to add a function that initializes the database -for you to the application.</p> -<p>If you want to do that, you first have to import the -<a class="reference external" href="http://docs.python.org/dev/library/contextlib.html#contextlib.closing" title="(in Python v3.3)"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">contextlib.closing()</span></tt></a> function from the contextlib package. If you -want to use Python 2.5 it’s also necessary to enable the <cite>with</cite> statement -first (<cite>__future__</cite> imports must be the very first import):</p> -<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="kn">from</span> <span class="nn">__future__</span> <span class="kn">import</span> <span class="n">with_statement</span> -<span class="kn">from</span> <span class="nn">contextlib</span> <span class="kn">import</span> <span class="n">closing</span> -</pre></div> -</div> -<p>Next we can create a function called <cite>init_db</cite> that initializes the -database. For this we can use the <cite>connect_db</cite> function we defined -earlier. Just add that function below the <cite>connect_db</cite> function:</p> -<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="k">def</span> <span class="nf">init_db</span><span class="p">():</span> - <span class="k">with</span> <span class="n">closing</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">connect_db</span><span class="p">())</span> <span class="k">as</span> <span class="n">db</span><span class="p">:</span> - <span class="k">with</span> <span class="n">app</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">open_resource</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s">'schema.sql'</span><span class="p">)</span> <span class="k">as</span> <span class="n">f</span><span class="p">:</span> - <span class="n">db</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">cursor</span><span class="p">()</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">executescript</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">f</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">read</span><span class="p">())</span> - <span class="n">db</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">commit</span><span class="p">()</span> -</pre></div> -</div> -<p>The <a class="reference external" href="http://docs.python.org/dev/library/contextlib.html#contextlib.closing" title="(in Python v3.3)"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">closing()</span></tt></a> helper function allows us to keep a -connection open for the duration of the <cite>with</cite> block. The -<a class="reference internal" href="../api.html#flask.Flask.open_resource" title="flask.Flask.open_resource"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">open_resource()</span></tt></a> method of the application object -supports that functionality out of the box, so it can be used in the -<cite>with</cite> block directly. This function opens a file from the resource -location (your <cite>flaskr</cite> folder) and allows you to read from it. We are -using this here to execute a script on the database connection.</p> -<p>When we connect to a database we get a connection object (here called -<cite>db</cite>) that can give us a cursor. On that cursor there is a method to -execute a complete script. Finally we only have to commit the changes. -SQLite 3 and other transactional databases will not commit unless you -explicitly tell it to.</p> -<p>Now it is possible to create a database by starting up a Python shell and -importing and calling that function:</p> -<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="kn">from</span> <span class="nn">flaskr</span> <span class="kn">import</span> <span class="n">init_db</span> -<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">init_db</span><span class="p">()</span> -</pre></div> -</div> -<div class="admonition-troubleshooting admonition "> -<p class="first admonition-title">Troubleshooting</p> -<p class="last">If you get an exception later that a table cannot be found check that -you did call the <cite>init_db</cite> function and that your table names are -correct (singular vs. plural for example).</p> -</div> -<p>Continue with <a class="reference internal" href="dbcon.html#tutorial-dbcon"><em>Step 4: Request Database Connections</em></a></p> -</div> - - - </div> - </div> - </div> - <div class="sphinxsidebar"> - <div class="sphinxsidebarwrapper"><p class="logo"><a href="../index.html"> - <img class="logo" src="../_static/flask.png" alt="Logo"/> -</a></p><h3>Related Topics</h3> -<ul> - <li><a href="../index.html">Documentation overview</a><ul> - <li><a href="index.html">Tutorial</a><ul> - <li>Previous: <a href="setup.html" title="previous chapter">Step 2: Application Setup Code</a></li> - <li>Next: <a href="dbcon.html" title="next chapter">Step 4: Request Database Connections</a></li> - </ul></li> - </ul></li> -</ul> - <h3>This Page</h3> - <ul class="this-page-menu"> - <li><a href="../_sources/tutorial/dbinit.txt" - rel="nofollow">Show Source</a></li> - </ul> -<div id="searchbox" style="display: none"> - <h3>Quick search</h3> - <form class="search" action="../search.html" method="get"> - <input type="text" name="q" /> - <input type="submit" value="Go" /> - <input type="hidden" name="check_keywords" value="yes" /> - <input type="hidden" name="area" value="default" /> - </form> - <p class="searchtip" style="font-size: 90%"> - Enter search terms or a module, class or function name. - </p> -</div> -<script type="text/javascript">$('#searchbox').show(0);</script> - </div> - </div> - <div class="clearer"></div> - </div> - <div class="footer"> - © Copyright 2010, Armin Ronacher. - Created using <a href="http://sphinx.pocoo.org/">Sphinx</a>. - </div> - </body> -</html>
