dependency on retired package, `databases`

Open onerandomusername opened this issue 2 months ago • 1 comments

Looks like @encode recently retired the databases library, which ormar uses internally. It would be beneficial to either migrate, or perhaps begin maintaining databases in conjunction with a transfer from encode.

Just posting this here so there are eyes, I was looking to perhaps use ormar again, but this is a dealbreaker as it stands, while the future is up in the air.

There was some conversation about this in the SQLAlchemy 2 PR https://github.com/collerek/ormar/pull/1269 I think we already have approval from collerek to remove it and I started an attempt to do so, the hardest part I think is we have to completely reimplement transactions since we relied on databases for that.
