A Simple Example

from flask import Flask
from flask_sqlalchemy import SQLAlchemy
from sqlalchemy.orm import DeclarativeBase, Mapped, mapped_column

app = Flask(__name__)
app.config["SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI"] = "sqlite:///example.sqlite"

class Base(DeclarativeBase):
  pass

db = SQLAlchemy(app, model_class=Base)

class User(db.Model):
    id: Mapped[int] = mapped_column(primary_key=True)
    username: Mapped[str] = mapped_column(unique=True)

with app.app_context():
    db.create_all()

    db.session.add(User(username="example"))
    db.session.commit()

    users = db.session.scalars(db.select(User))
