SQLAlchemy Code Review

Quick Reference

Issue Type Reference
Session lifecycle, context managers, async sessions references/sessions.md
relationship(), lazy loading, N+1, joinedload references/relationships.md
select() vs query(), ORM overhead, bulk ops references/queries.md
Alembic patterns, reversible migrations, data migrations references/migrations.md

Review Checklist

  • Sessions use context managers (with, async with)
  • No session sharing across requests or threads
  • Sessions closed/cleaned up properly
  • relationship() uses appropriate lazy strategy
  • Explicit joinedload/selectinload to avoid N+1
  • No lazy loading in loops (N+1 queries)
  • Using SQLAlchemy 2.0 select() syntax, not legacy query()
  • Bulk operations use bulk_insert/bulk_update, not ORM loops
  • Async sessions use proper async context managers
  • Migrations are reversible with downgrade()
  • Data migrations use op.execute() not ORM models
  • Migration dependencies properly ordered

When to Load References

  • Reviewing session creation/cleanup → sessions.md
  • Reviewing model relationships → relationships.md
  • Reviewing database queries → queries.md
  • Reviewing Alembic migration files → migrations.md

Review Questions

  1. Are all sessions properly managed with context managers?
  2. Are relationships configured to avoid N+1 queries?
  3. Are queries using SQLAlchemy 2.0 select() syntax?
  4. Are all migrations reversible and properly tested?
