Source code for sqlalchemy_utils.asserts

"""
The functions in this module can be used for testing that the constraints of
your models. Each assert function runs SQL UPDATEs that check for the existence
of given constraint. Consider the following model::


    class User(Base):
        __tablename__ = 'user'
        id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, primary_key=True)
        name = sa.Column(sa.String(200), nullable=True)
        email = sa.Column(sa.String(255), nullable=False)


    user = User(name='John Doe', email='john@example.com')
    session.add(user)
    session.commit()


We can easily test the constraints by assert_* functions::


    from sqlalchemy_utils import (
        assert_nullable,
        assert_non_nullable,
        assert_max_length
    )

    assert_nullable(user, 'name')
    assert_non_nullable(user, 'email')
    assert_max_length(user, 'name', 200)

    # raises AssertionError because the max length of email is 255
    assert_max_length(user, 'email', 300)
