sqlalchemy_columns_from_model_fields(model_fields, new_model)

Iterates over declared on Model model fields and extracts fields that should be treated as database fields.

If the model is empty it sets mandatory id field as primary key (used in through models in m2m relations).

Triggers a validation of relation_names in relation fields. If multiple fields are leading to the same related model only one can have empty related_name param. Also related_names have to be unique.

Trigger validation of primary_key - only one and required pk can be set, cannot be pydantic_only.

Append fields to columns if it's not pydantic_only, virtual ForeignKey or ManyToMany field.

Sets owner on each model_field as reference to newly created Model.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
model_fields Dict

dictionary of declared ormar model fields

required
new_model Type[Model]
required

Returns:

Type Description
Tuple[Optional[str], List[sqlalchemy.Column]]

pkname, list of sqlalchemy columns

Raises:

Type Description
ModelDefinitionError

if validation of related_names fail, or pkname validation fails.
