SQL alchemy column name with space

Question

I'm trying to filter a table on a column that contain spaces.

...
events = database_session.query(table)
events.filter(table.column with space == 'xvalue')   < -- I want to do that
...

There is for sure a simple way of doing that, but I can't seem to find it anywhere.

Answer 1

@Hans, There are two ways to resolve this.

1. When defining the table you would need to specify an alias with the key parameter

   t_table_name = Table( 'table)name', metadata, Column('SQL Column',Integer, key='sql_column'))

2. Define the ORM class as

   class Employee(Base): emp_name = Column("employee name", String)
