Modifying Data
Commands can be executed individually by the session with a call to "execute()".
Obtaining the Table Object
The query supplied to this method is constructed using the associated Table object of a mapped class. This Table object is obtained from the mapped class's metadata field, as below:
Projects_table = Projects.metadata.tables["Projects"]
Once the table object is obtained, the write operations are executed in the following ways. The queries are executed immediately without the need for a call to "commit()":
Insert
The following example adds a new record to the table:
session.execute(Projects_table.insert(), {"Id": "Jon Doe", "Name": "John"})
Update
The following example modifies an existing record in the table:
session.execute(Projects_table.update().where(Projects_table.c.Id == "11111111-c6be-e111-1f1e-00155d055681").values(Id="Jon Doe", Name="John"))
Delete
The following example removes an existing record from the table:
session.execute(Projects_table.delete().where(Projects_table.c.Id == "11111111-c6be-e111-1f1e-00155d055681"))
