Cross database join in sqlalchemy

问题

Is there a way in SQLAlchemy to do cross-database joins. To be specific, here is my use case:

Schema

db1.entity1
1. entity1_id: Primary Key
2. entity2_id: Foreign Key to db2.entity2.entity2_id
db2.entity2
1. entity2_id: Primary Key

Model

I'm using declarative style for models.

class Entity1(Base):
  __tablename__ = 'entity1' ## I tried combination of <db>.<table> with no success
  entity1_id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
  entity2_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey('db2.entity2.entity2_id'))
  entity2 = relationship('Entity2')

class Entity2(Base):
  __tablename__ = 'entity2' ## I tried combination of <db>.<table> with no success
  entity2_id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)

Now, as expected, my queries for Entity1 is failing with MySQL error messages saying table entity2 not found. I tried many different combination for __tablename__ with no success. So i was wondering if it is possible in SQLAlchemy.

You probably need to pass the schema parameter to sqlalchemy.schema.Table. When using declarative base for ORM mapping, you can provide this extra parameter through the __table_args__ property on your classes.

class Entity2(Base):
    __tablename__ = 'entity2' ## I tried combination of <db>.<table> with no success
    __table_args__ = {'schema': 'db2'}
    entity2_id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True) 

class Entity1(Base):
    __tablename__ = 'entity1' ## I tried combination of <db>.<table> with no success
    __table_args__ = {'schema': 'db1'}
    entity1_id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
    entity2_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey(Entity2.entity2_id))
    entity2 = relationship('Entity2')
