[OOP, What does this mean?]
[Welcome to of Objects]
Each object is a Lego piece
This Lego bear sculpture contains over 95,000 LEGO pieces and took over 1100
hours to construct together.
This amazing Lego airport was showcased in LegoCity, at Senayan City,
Indonesia.
This machine has several playable features include functional powered treads for
movement, full suspension and front and rear steering. A true masterpiece.
Do you love Lego, too?
if you are programmer {
while (true) {
YOU OOP!
}
}
We also need persistence
[How we do persistence]
OOP languages provide object persistence
But it is fragile
Relational databases
Can store vast amounts of data in a structured way that allows for efficient
storage, access, and search
NoSQL solutions
truly vast datasets, real time and concurrent
[so, What problem]

I am programmer.
I love OOP. I hate SQL.
You hear me. ORM is sexy.
[ORM, What is]
Object - Relational Mapping
type systems object-oriented

virtual object database
bunch of code
provides a set of APIs which allows access databases in OO style
helps database become more transparent
[ORM, What is]
1994: TopLink for SmallTalk – the first ORM
2001 – 2002: Hibernate
Entity Framework and LINQ

ACTIVE RECORD CORE DATA

[Discussion]
ORM is the Vietnam of Computer Science

Trying to match two different world
How to work with ORM in
Django
[ORM in Django]
Save for insert and update

Delete for, well, delete
And some methods to load records
[How to create a model]
Must inherit from the Model class
Model class inside the models package (django.db.models.Model)
Model add ORM methods, such as save() and delete()
Model add an objects collection as a property for querying data
Create Student Model

property_name = models.Type(fieldOptions)
Type is some Field class inside models (you can create and use customize field classes)
Each property_name exactly is an instance of some field class
Each Field class represent a column type, which tells to the database what kind of
data to store.
fieldOptions is a set of field-specific arguments
[How to create string Field]
property_name = models.CharField(fieldOptions)
property_name = models.TextField(fieldOptions)
max_length: integer number represent maximum number of characters

null: bool value to indicate if null value is allowed. False by default.
blank: bool value to indicate if empty string is allowed. False by default.
default: default value if none is provided
choices: enumeration
[How to create number Field]
property_name = models.BigIntegerField(fieldOptions)
property_name = models.IntegerField(fieldOptions)
property_name = models.SmallIntegerField(fieldOptions)
property_name = models.PositiveIntegerField(fieldOptions)
property_name = models.PositiveSmallIntegerField(fieldOptions)
property_name = models.FloatField(fieldOptions)

[How to create Boolean Field]
property_name = models.BooleanField(fieldOptions)
property_name = models.NullBooleanField(fieldOptions)

[How to create date - time Field]
property_name = models.DateField(fieldOptions)
property_name = models.TimeField(fieldOptions)
property_name = models.DateTimeField(fieldOptions)
auto_now: automatically set the field to now every time the object is saved. False
by default. Note that the current date is always used; it’s not just a default value
that you can override.
auto_now_add: automatically set the field to now when the object is first created.
Note that the current date is always used; it’s not just a default value that you can
override.
[Some special fields]
A CharField that checks that the value is a valid email address. max_length=254
A CharField that checks that the value is a valid url. max_length=200
A CharField that checks that the value is a valid IP address.

protocol: both, IPv4, IPv6
unpack_ipv4: to convert a packed address(::ffff:192.0.2.1) to ipv4 address
(192.0.2.1)
[Some special fields]
upload_to: the string value will be appended to your MEDIA_ROOT path to form the
location on the local filesystem where uploaded files will be stored. upload_to may
also be a callable, such as a function
All that will be stored in your database is a path to the file (relative to MEDIA_ROOT).
You can get absolute path use mug_shot.url
Inherits all attributes and methods from FileField, but also validates that the uploaded
object is a valid image.
height_field=None, width_field=None
Read API reference for the other field types
[How to create a primary key]
Must be unique for each record
Typically has a name of id
Typically is a auto-generate number
models.CharField(primary_key=True)
models.IntField(primary_key=True)
models.AutoField(primary_key=True)
[Exercise 1]
first_name: is a string, length <= 30, not null, not blank
mid_name: is a string, length <= 50, nullable, blankable
last_name: is a string, length <=30, not null, not blank
birthday: for storing the date of birth
admission_day: for storing the date and time
gender: F or M
class_name: is a string, length <= 50

special: is a string, length <=100
class_term: is a integer number
How about relationships?
[How to create relationships]
ForeignKey
ManyToManyField
OneToOneField
[How to connect to database]
[How to connect to database]
for details
SQLite
MySQL
Oracle
PostgreSQL
[How to sync between models and database]
Creates a package that contains all of the changes to be made on the database based
on the code changes in the models
--name
Synchronizes the database state with the current set of models and migrations
--fake
Prints the SQL for the named migration

lazy
QuerySet has two public properties: ordered and db
Two main kinds of functions
return an instance of QuerySet class: all, filter, exclude, annotate, orderby, distinct, …
get, count, first, last, Avg, Count, Max, Min, Sum, Variance, StdDev, …
Example with get, all functions

values(‘property1’, ‘property2’, …) to select some properties
Lookup expression
Django is aware of your object structure => we can query data using the class structure we
created.
Use two underscore to call function or deeper property
String funcs: exact, contains, startswith, endswith, regex,
Use i prefix to call insensitive string funcs
Number funcs: gt, gte, lt, lte, range, …
Use in for list and subquery statements
Limiting QuerySet: [5], [:5], [5:10]

Examples with get, filter and exclude
How to make complex lookup expression
Chaining filters
Student.objects.filter(first_name__exact=‘Nguyen’).filter(last_name__exact=‘Hoang’)
Q() objects
&, |, ~
Q(first_name__exact=‘Nguyen’) & Q(last_name__exact=‘Hoang’)
Multiple update and delete

filters.delete()
filters.update(property1=value1, …)
filters.update(property1 = F(‘property1’) + 1, property2 = F(‘property3’) + 2)
“More like science. You grab this piece of library and you poke at it. You write
programs that poke it and see what it does. And you say, ‘Can I tweak it to do the
thing I want?’”
As to why they chose Python as an alternative, Sussman joked that it was “late
binding” decision. Python has a ton of libraries that make it applicable to many
types of projects that instructors might want to assign (like writing software to
control a robot.)
