Multithreading with SQLAlchemy ORM and in-memory SQLite - python

I am trying to write to an in-memory SQLite database in multiple threads. According to SQLAlchemy docs this is possible. However, in practice I cannot reliably get it to work. I have tried with both scoped_session and without, yielding the same results. Strangely enough, if I pass echo=True to create_engine the code works every time, maybe because it forces the engine to synchronously print all statements to the screen. Code sample and exceptions are below.
EDIT: The more I look into this, the more I realize that SQLite is just not very good at concurrency for write operations. The section on High Concurrency says that while an unlimited amount of readers are allowed, there can only be one writer at any given time. A better approach here would be to queue all write operations instead of trying to achieve any level of concurrency. However I am still open to suggestions if anyone has managed to find a solution.

SQLAlchemy - Broken Pipe ERROR when trying to store large BLOB (i.e. machine learning model) to MySQL database

I would like to serialize many Gensim library Word2Vec models in MySQL database. For the purpose of my project I am utilizing: Python, Flask, SQLAlchemy, and MySQL+PyMySQL. Below you can see my Word2VecModel class which I am using in order to create word2vec table in MySQL DB:
from db.db import db
import db_models.influencer
class Word2VecModel(db.Model):
__tablename__ = "word2vec"
m_id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
m_username = db.Column(db.String(20), db.ForeignKey("influencer.m_username"))
m_binary = db.Column(db.LargeBinary)
influencer = db.relationship("InfluencerModel")
def __init__(self, m_binary, m_username):
self.m_binary = m_binary
self.m_username = m_username
def __repr__(self):
return '<Word2Vec {}>'.format(self.m_name)
#classmethod
def find_by_username(cls, m_username):
return cls.query.filter_by(name=m_username).first()
def save_to_db(self):
db.session.add(self)
db.session.commit()
def delete_from_db(self):
db.session.delete(self)
db.session.commit()
Whenever I try to execute:
word2vec_model = Word2VecModel(pickle.dumps(word2vec), username)
word2vec_model .save_to_db()
I get the following error message:

I've read somewhere that increasing MySQL connection timeout might help, but not in my case. Here is my DB engine configuration:
app.config['SQLALCHEMY_TRACK_MODIFICATIONS'] = False
app.config['SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI'] = 'mysql+pymysql://root:''#localhost/********'
app.config['PROPAGATE_EXCEPTIONS'] = True

SQL alchemy table does not exist

I am writing on a Dash app and using SQL alchemy for the database. I want to make the creation of the database automated so I have a few lines of code to create the database if it does not exist.
from sqlalchemy import create_engine, MetaData, Table, Column, Integer, String, Float
from sqlalchemy_utils import create_database, database_exists
engine = create_engine(SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI, echo = True)
create_database(SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI)
meta = MetaData()
flagged_vendors_table = Table(
'flagged_vendors', meta,
Column(vendor_col, String, primary_key = True),
Column(flag_col, Integer)
)
meta.create_all(engine)
This seems to work well as per the echo:
2020-01-21 09:28:30,604 INFO sqlalchemy.engine.base.Engine
CREATE TABLE flagged_vendors (
"Vendor PRS_description" VARCHAR NOT NULL,
"Flag" INTEGER,

)

2020-01-21 09:28:30,639 INFO sqlalchemy.engine.base.Engine COMMIT
However when I execute the app I get the following error:

(Background on this error at: http://sqlalche.me/e/e3q8)
The traceback is not leading to any line in my code, which is an issue that I am trying to investigate here, but I believe there is only one part in my code that could cause the error:
def to_storage(df, storage_info):
storage_type = storage_info["storage_type"]
if storage_type == "sql":
db_uri = storage_info["db_uri"]
engine = create_engine(db_uri, echo = False, pool_pre_ping=True)
table_name = storage_info["table_name"]
df.to_sql(table_name, engine, if_exists = "replace")
It is very strange because the code is supposed to drop the table only if it exists. One last element: this issue seems to appear only if there is no existing database at the specified URI when I launch the app.

These are my mysql configurations: interactive_timeout and wait_timeout is set to 28800 ~ 8 hours. net_write_timeout is set to 3600 ~ 60 mins and net_read_timeout is set 300 ~ 5 mins.
Any help is highly appreciated.
It is turned out to be problem with the tcp_connect_timeout between the application server and the database server. The tcp connect timeout was default of 1 hour and my pool recycle settings was 3 hrs. So anything between 1 and 3 were failing. Posting the answer to help others who might face this later.

Mixing of sqlalchemy and flask-sqlalchemy sessions

The issue I am having is with the mixing of sqlalchemy sessions with flask-sqlalchemy session. So for context, I am running a flask-restful app on the background and I have a file (runnable.py) with a main method which is supposed to run periodically for an average period of 4 weeks.
This file uses its own session (pure sqlalchemy session) and connects to this app (which uses flask-sqlalchemy session).
After a few hours (sometimes 1 day), I get this error

I tried the following suggestions but they did not work:
• In my app config, adding "pymysql" to the SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI
• Doing a db.session.commit() when I enter generate_company_tags(id_attendee_login) before writing a sql select query. I thought it would flush the session.
Btw, the sqlalchemy pool recycle value is set to less than the max in AWS RDS.
Any suggestions on how I can go solving this?

Flask-SQLAlchemy create_all()

When i run the dbManager.create_all() command, it runs with out errors but fails to create the tables. When i delete the database and run the create_all() command, i get the no such database as ##### error which i should get but when the database does exist, nothing happens.
Please can anyone see what i'm doing wrong?
from blogconfig import dbManager
class Art(dbManager.Model):
id = dbManager.Column(dbManager.Integer, primary_key = True)
title = dbManager.Column(dbManager.String(64), index = True, unique = True)
content = dbManager.Column(dbManager.Text(5000))
def __repr__(self):
return '<Art %r>' %(self.title)
EDIT
This is the shell command
from blogconfig import dbManager
>>> dbManager.create_all()
import models
>>> a = models.Art(title='des', content='asdfvhbdjbjdn')
>>> dbManager.session.add(a)
>>> dbManager.session.commit()

dbManager will not know about the models you define in other modules unless they are imported before running create_all.
In a real application this shouldn't matter because running the flask app should set up the db and import views/blueprints to register them. Since the views use the models, the models are indirectly imported and are available to the dbManager.
Either import your models in the blogconfig module after creating the dbManager instance, or change the order of you shell commands to be
>>> from blogconfig import dbManager
>>> import models
>>> dbManager.create_all()
SQLAlchemy will only create tables, the database must already exist, which is why you're seeing the other error when you delete the database.
