Python SQLAlchemy Basics Introduction to SQLAlchemy Querying the Movie Database

SQLAlchemy Basics - Querying Movie Database

Afternoon,

I'm not entirely sure to why my code isn't working.

Is anyone able to help explain where I'm going wrong please.

Thank You.

models.py
from sqlalchemy import create_engine, Column, Integer, String
from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base
from sqlalchemy.orm import sessionmaker


engine = create_engine(β€˜sqlite:///movies.db’, echo=False)
Session = sessionmaker(bind=engine)
session = Session()
Base = declarative_base()


class Movie(Base):
    __tablename__ = β€˜movies’

    id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
    movie_title = Column(String)
    genre = Column(String)

# Write your code below

romance_movies = models.session.query(models.Movie).filter_by(genre='Romance')

I've figured out what I've done wrong now.

romance_movies = session.query(Movie).filter_by(genre='Romance')
