python - Alembic/Flask-migrate doesn't recognise database structure -


i have flask-based application , i'm trying enable migrations able manage database structural changes. database not empty , contains tables , records before started alembic , flask-migrate.

first, tried use alembic stand-alone, pip install alembic , configure , use autogenerate generating diff. works fine output not expected:

info  [alembic.autogenerate.compare] detected removed table u'user'   generating /users/me/documents/project/app/migrations/versions/3de1151ce5de_.py ... done

so table user present in database (i think it's reserved table in postgresql) , have never removed it. also, have bunch of other tables seem invisible alembic. @ first thought failed configure alembic properly, started on , decided try this nice flask extension miguel grinberg. lot easier setup, result same message.

any ideas doing wrong?

edit: decided add important information on how edited original alembic env.py:

.... import sys,os sys.path.append(os.getcwd()) import app app import db target_metadata = db.metadata  ....  def run_migrations_online():     """run migrations in 'online' mode.      in scenario need create engine     , associate connection context.      """     # models need imported visible when migration runs     app.models import model1, model2, model3, model4, model5  ...

this changes necessary alembic see declarative base , models before migration starts. after dropping standalone approach followed flask-migrate tutorial , didn't touch files there.

edit: ok, we've got deleted 'user' table explained. still, other models don't appear in scripts. think happens since app started before migration scripts created, sqlalechmy db.create_all() call creates tables , why alembic doesn't see difference in colums vs models. perhaps i'm calling create_all() in wrong place?

edit: yes! it, moved db.create_all() below manager.run() , detects changes now. help!

your database has user table, not represented in of sqlalchemy models. correct?

alembic assume have removed table, since auto-migration script show differences between models defined in application , actual database. alembic has no way know have table in database considered exempt migration scripts.

in case, automatic migration feature great, not supposed "automatic". have review generated scripts , fix errors or inaccuracies before use them.

the way move forward edit migration script correct this. take remove table away. migration scripts meant hand edited, don't afraid that.

the unfortunate problem every time issue new migration table remove show again. don't think alembic has way provide exceptions.

html - Sizing a high-res image (~8MB) to display entirely in a small div (circular, diameter 100px) -

first of all, thank being patient know simple question more couple of weeks' experience figure out. i've seen folks persevere , helpful on here , hope you're willing me. here fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/65uzf/ here 1 of places searched answers on here: ( vertically center image thumbnails fix-sized div ) tried solutions on there , didn't work out me. i've searched ~4 or 5 others, , been unsuccessful those, too. what want take large image (what linked background-image #ysypic , #tabpic divs) , display thumbnail version of image in confines of divs have set it. is, using background properties have laid out in css, portion of image displays inside of circular divs. without these properties, display defaults smaller section of image [presumably pi*(50^2) area in top left] terrible resolution. i not care if entire image doesn't display inside of circles (it won't, given difference in shape), , overflow not being displayed fine. want able see figu

java - IntelliJ - No such instance method -

using intellij's 12 ultimate, i'm running following code in debugger: java import play.api.libs.json.jsvalue; public class foo { ... public jsvalue tojson() { ... } public class fooexample { ... foo foo = new foo(); system.out.println("...); //<-- breakpoint at breakpoint, right-clicked source code , picked "evaluate expression," typing in: foo.tojson() . but following error showed up: no such instance method: play.api.libs.json.jsvalue$class.com.foo.foo.tojson () am doing wrong? foo#tojson calls scala code, if matters. edit had breakpoint after instantiation of foo. downvoted it, deserved it. edit my answer no longer valid after op modified question (i.e. moved breakpoint actual is).. a breakpoint hit before line executed. in case foo has not yet been declared or instantiated (i.e. foo constructor has not yet been called). you'll need put breakpoint @ next line (or step on current line) if want evaluate foo .

identifier - Is it possible for an html5 document to have two ids? -

i wondering if html5 element can have 2 ids, this: <button id="thing1" id="thing2" name="button1" onclick="change()">click here</button> or this: <button id="thing1, thing2" name="button1" onclick="change()">click here</button> also, if 1 of ids said 1 thing, , other id said thing, 1 used? tl;dr : no. in versions of html, each element can have 1 id. see the spec : the id attribute specifies element's unique identifier (id). [dom] the value must unique amongst ids in element's home subtree , must contain @ least 1 character. the value must not contain space characters. note: there no other restrictions on form id can take; in particular, ids can consist of digits, start digit, start underscore, consist of punctuation , etc. note: element's unique identifier can used variety of purposes, notably way link specific parts of document usin
