CPE Chapter 5 + Cascading operations question + ORM Shootout

[Eugene Van den Bulke]

Hi all,

I mentioned in my first post to the list that it could be interesting
(for people like me at least) to write the code of Chapter 5 of
CherryPy Essentials using Storm. Why? Because it is a well written
simple comparison between 3 ORMs SQLObject, SQLAlchemy and DejaVu.
Plus, it is available for free (it is the sample chapter
<http://www.packtpub.com/files/1848_CherryPy_SampleChapter.pdf>).

I have attached a file named cherry-storm.py which is my take on the subject.

Please bear in mind that it is the first time that I use a ORM and
that the only resource available at this stage for Storm in term of
documentation is the Tutorial. I would appreciate comments

I hope I managed to replicate the spirit of Sylvain's code (I cc: him
to get his feedback if he feels like it). I know there is one thing I
didn't do : cascading.

Does Storm support cascading operations through a cascade=True
parameter of the Reference or through a special method à la DejaVu
on_forget or ...?

Thanks for your time and assistance,

PS: as far as manipulating data is concerned ... I think Storm's syntax rocks!!!

PPS: is there a Python ORM Shootout (like the Web Framework Shoutout
:P)? I can't find on. If not, do you think it could be interested to
put something like that together?
