Regular SQLAlchemy instead of Flask-SQLAlchemy?

[zefoo]

I see under the hood this runs Flask-SQLAlchemy.

Is it possible to use regular SQLAlchemy? I'm thinking no, I don't think it's a drop in replacement.

If not, can I use Flask-SQLAlchemy and SQLAlchemy together? Where Flask-Session uses Flask-SQLAlchemy and everything else uses SQLAlchemy (and both share a connection string)?

Flask session and flask-sqlalchemy work fine together, its how my current application is setup

you just need to assign the flask-sqlalchemy object to SESSION_SQLALCHEMY before you initialize the session object with app

init_db(app, db) app.config['SESSION_SQLALCHEMY'] = db sess.init_app(app) db.create_all()

ive got the above in my appfactory. db is an flask-sqlalchemy object

@slastrina he's saying he's not using flask-sqlalchemy but only sqlalchemy
