SQLObject is a popular Object Relational Manager for providing an object interface to your database, with tables as classes, rows as instances, and columns as attributes.
SQLObject includes a Python-object-based query language that makes SQL more abstract, and provides substantial database independence for applications. Python 2.7 or 3.4+ is required.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Supports MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite; connections to other backends – Firebird, Sybase, MSSQL and MaxDB (also known as SAPDB) – are lesser debugged).
- Uses class definitions to form table schemas, and utilizes the language’s reflection and dynamism to be useful.
- Mature software. The first release was back in 2002.
