SQLModel 多对多关系实战教程：英雄与团队的复杂关联
还在为处理复杂的多对多关系而头疼吗？SQLModel 提供了优雅的解决方案！本文将带你深入实战，掌握如何构建和管理英雄与团队之间的复杂关联关系。
通过本教程，你将学会：
- 多对多关系的基本概念与设计原理
- 使用 SQLModel 创建关联表（Link Table）
- 实现双向关联与数据同步
- 处理带有额外字段的复杂关联
- 增删改查多对多关系的实战技巧
多对多关系基础概念
在现实世界中，多对多关系无处不在：一个学生可以选修多门课程，一门课程可以有多个学生；一个用户可以加入多个群组，一个群组可以有多个用户。在我们的英雄世界中，一个英雄可以加入多个团队，一个团队也可以有多个英雄。
传统解决方案的局限性
传统的一对多关系无法满足这种需求。如果我们尝试在 hero 表中添加多个 team_id 字段，会遇到以下问题：
# ❌ 错误示范：固定数量的团队字段
class Hero(SQLModel, table=True):
id: int | None = Field(default=None, primary_key=True)
name: str
team_id_1: int | None = Field(default=None, foreign_key="team.id")
team_id_2: int | None = Field(default=None, foreign_key="team.id")
team_id_3: int | None = Field(default=None, foreign_key="team.id")
这种方法限制了英雄最多只能加入3个团队，缺乏灵活性。
关联表解决方案
正确的解决方案是使用关联表（Link Table），也称为连接表或中间表：
基础多对多关系实现
1. 定义模型结构
首先创建基础的关联表模型：
from typing import List, Optional
from sqlmodel import Field, Relationship, Session, SQLModel, create_engine, select
# 关联表模型
class HeroTeamLink(SQLModel, table=True):
team_id: Optional[int] = Field(
default=None, foreign_key="team.id", primary_key=True
)
hero_id: Optional[int] = Field(
default=None, foreign_key="hero.id", primary_key=True
)
# 团队模型
class Team(SQLModel, table=True):
id: Optional[int] = Field(default=None, primary_key=True)
name: str = Field(index=True)
headquarters: str
heroes: List["Hero"] = Relationship(
back_populates="teams",
link_model=HeroTeamLink
)
# 英雄模型
class Hero(SQLModel, table=True):
id: Optional[int] = Field(default=None, primary_key=True)
name: str = Field(index=True)
secret_name: str
age: Optional[int] = Field(default=None, index=True)
teams: List[Team] = Relationship(
back_populates="heroes",
link_model=HeroTeamLink
)
2. 数据库初始化
# 数据库配置
sqlite_file_name = "database.db"
sqlite_url = f"sqlite:///{sqlite_file_name}"
engine = create_engine(sqlite_url, echo=True)
def create_db_and_tables():
SQLModel.metadata.create_all(engine)
3. 创建测试数据
def create_heroes():
with Session(engine) as session:
# 创建团队
team_preventers = Team(name="Preventers", headquarters="Sharp Tower")
team_z_force = Team(name="Z-Force", headquarters="Sister Margaret's Bar")
# 创建英雄并关联团队
hero_deadpond = Hero(
name="Deadpond",
secret_name="Dive Wilson",
teams=[team_z_force, team_preventers], # 一个英雄多个团队
)
hero_rusty_man = Hero(
name="Rusty-Man",
secret_name="Tommy Sharp",
age=48,
teams=[team_preventers], # 一个团队多个英雄
)
hero_spider_boy = Hero(
name="Spider-Boy",
secret_name="Pedro Parqueador",
teams=[team_preventers]
)
# 提交到数据库
session.add(hero_deadpond)
session.add(hero_rusty_man)
session.add(hero_spider_boy)
session.commit()
# 刷新数据并打印结果
session.refresh(hero_deadpond)
session.refresh(hero_rusty_man)
session.refresh(hero_spider_boy)
print("Deadpond:", hero_deadpond)
print("Deadpond teams:", hero_deadpond.teams)
print("Rusty-Man:", hero_rusty_man)
print("Rusty-Man Teams:", hero_rusty_man.teams)
复杂关联：带额外字段的多对多关系
在实际应用中，我们经常需要在关联关系中存储额外信息。比如记录英雄在团队中的训练状态：
1. 扩展关联表模型
class HeroTeamLink(SQLModel, table=True):
team_id: Optional[int] = Field(
default=None, foreign_key="team.id", primary_key=True
)
hero_id: Optional[int] = Field(
default=None, foreign_key="hero.id", primary_key=True
)
is_training: bool = Field(default=True) # 额外字段：训练状态
# 双向关联
team: "Team" = Relationship(back_populates="hero_links")
hero: "Hero" = Relationship(back_populates="team_links")
class Team(SQLModel, table=True):
id: Optional[int] = Field(default=None, primary_key=True)
name: str = Field(index=True)
headquarters: str
hero_links: List[HeroTeamLink] = Relationship(back_populates="team")
class Hero(SQLModel, table=True):
id: Optional[int] = Field(default=None, primary_key=True)
name: str = Field(index=True)
secret_name: str
age: Optional[int] = Field(default=None, index=True)
team_links: List[HeroTeamLink] = Relationship(back_populates="hero")
2. 创建带状态的关联数据
def create_heroes_with_status():
with Session(engine) as session:
team_preventers = Team(name="Preventers", headquarters="Sharp Tower")
team_z_force = Team(name="Z-Force", headquarters="Sister Margaret's Bar")
hero_deadpond = Hero(name="Deadpond", secret_name="Dive Wilson")
hero_spider_boy = Hero(name="Spider-Boy", secret_name="Pedro Parqueador")
hero_rusty_man = Hero(name="Rusty-Man", secret_name="Tommy Sharp", age=48)
# 创建带状态的关联
link1 = HeroTeamLink(team=team_z_force, hero=hero_deadpond, is_training=False)
link2 = HeroTeamLink(team=team_preventers, hero=hero_deadpond, is_training=True)
link3 = HeroTeamLink(team=team_preventers, hero=hero_spider_boy, is_training=True)
link4 = HeroTeamLink(team=team_preventers, hero=hero_rusty_man, is_training=False)
session.add_all([link1, link2, link3, link4])
session.commit()
多对多关系的增删改查操作
1. 添加新的关联关系
def add_hero_to_team(hero_name: str, team_name: str):
with Session(engine) as session:
# 查询英雄和团队
hero = session.exec(select(Hero).where(Hero.name == hero_name)).first()
team = session.exec(select(Team).where(Team.name == team_name)).first()
if hero and team:
# 添加关联
hero.teams.append(team)
session.add(team) # 只需要添加团队，关联会自动处理
session.commit()
print(f"成功将 {hero_name} 添加到 {team_name}")
else:
print("英雄或团队不存在")
# 使用示例
add_hero_to_team("Spider-Boy", "Z-Force")
2. 移除关联关系
def remove_hero_from_team(hero_name: str, team_name: str):
with Session(engine) as session:
hero = session.exec(select(Hero).where(Hero.name == hero_name)).first()
team = session.exec(select(Team).where(Team.name == team_name)).first()
if hero and team and team in hero.teams:
# 移除关联
hero.teams.remove(team)
session.add(team) # 只需要添加团队，关联会自动处理
session.commit()
print(f"成功将 {hero_name} 从 {team_name} 移除")
else:
print("关联关系不存在")
# 使用示例
remove_hero_from_team("Spider-Boy", "Z-Force")
3. 查询关联数据
def get_hero_teams(hero_name: str):
with Session(engine) as session:
hero = session.exec(
select(Hero).where(Hero.name == hero_name)
).first()
if hero:
print(f"{hero_name} 所在的团队:")
for team in hero.teams:
print(f" - {team.name} ({team.headquarters})")
else:
print("英雄不存在")
def get_team_heroes(team_name: str):
with Session(engine) as session:
team = session.exec(
select(Team).where(Team.name == team_name)
).first()
if team:
print(f"{team_name} 的成员:")
for hero in team.heroes:
print(f" - {hero.name} (年龄: {hero.age or '未知'})")
else:
print("团队不存在")
# 使用示例
get_hero_teams("Deadpond")
get_team_heroes("Preventers")
4. 更新关联状态（带额外字段）
def update_training_status(hero_name: str, team_name: str, is_training: bool):
with Session(engine) as session:
# 对于带额外字段的关联，需要直接操作关联表
hero = session.exec(select(Hero).where(Hero.name == hero_name)).first()
team = session.exec(select(Team).where(Team.name == team_name)).first()
if hero and team:
# 查找关联记录
for link in hero.team_links:
if link.team_id == team.id:
link.is_training = is_training
session.add(link)
session.commit()
print(f"更新 {hero_name} 在 {team_name} 的训练状态为: {is_training}")
return
print("关联关系不存在")
else:
print("英雄或团队不存在")
# 使用示例
update_training_status("Spider-Boy", "Preventers", False)
实战案例：完整的英雄团队管理系统
class HeroTeamManager:
def __init__(self, database_url: str = "sqlite:///hero_teams.db"):
self.engine = create_engine(database_url, echo=True)
SQLModel.metadata.create_all(self.engine)
def create_team(self, name: str, headquarters: str) -> Team:
with Session(self.engine) as session:
team = Team(name=name, headquarters=headquarters)
session.add(team)
session.commit()
session.refresh(team)
return team
def create_hero(self, name: str, secret_name: str, age: Optional[int] = None) -> Hero:
with Session(self.engine) as session:
hero = Hero(name=name, secret_name=secret_name, age=age)
session.add(hero)
session.commit()
session.refresh(hero)
return hero
def assign_hero_to_team(self, hero_name: str, team_name: str) -> bool:
with Session(self.engine) as session:
hero = session.exec(select(Hero).where(Hero.name == hero_name)).first()
team = session.exec(select(Team).where(Team.name == team_name)).first()
if hero and team:
if team not in hero.teams:
hero.teams.append(team)
session.add(team)
session.commit()
return True
return False
def remove_hero_from_team(self, hero_name: str, team_name: str) -> bool:
with Session(self.engine) as session:
hero = session.exec(select(Hero).where(Hero.name == hero_name)).first()
team = session.exec(select(Team).where(Team.name == team_name)).first()
if hero and team and team in hero.teams:
hero.teams.remove(team)
session.add(team)
session.commit()
return True
return False
def get_hero_teams(self, hero_name: str) -> List[Team]:
with Session(self.engine) as session:
hero = session.exec(select(Hero).where(Hero.name == hero_name)).first()
return hero.teams if hero else []
def get_team_heroes(self, team_name: str) -> List[Hero]:
with Session(self.engine) as session:
team = session.exec(select(Team).where(Team.name == team_name)).first()
return team.heroes if team else []
# 使用示例
manager = HeroTeamManager()
# 创建团队和英雄
preventers = manager.create_team("Preventers", "Sharp Tower")
z_force = manager.create_team("Z-Force", "Sister Margaret's Bar")
deadpond = manager.create_hero("Deadpond", "Dive Wilson")
spider_boy = manager.create_hero("Spider-Boy", "Pedro Parqueador")
rusty_man = manager.create_hero("Rusty-Man", "Tommy Sharp", 48)
# 建立关联
manager.assign_hero_to_team("Deadpond", "Z-Force")
manager.assign_hero_to_team("Deadpond", "Preventers")
manager.assign_hero_to_team("Spider-Boy", "Preventers")
manager.assign_hero_to_team("Rusty-Man", "Preventers")
# 查询结果
print("Preventers 团队成员:")
for hero in manager.get_team_heroes("Preventers"):
print(f" - {hero.name}")
print("\nDeadpond 所在的团队:")
for team in manager.get_hero_teams("Deadpond"):
print(f" - {team.name}")
性能优化与最佳实践
1. 批量操作优化
def bulk_assign_heroes_to_team(hero_names: List[str], team_name: str):
with Session(engine) as session:
team = session.exec(select(Team).where(Team.name == team_name)).first()
if not team:
return
heroes = session.exec(select(Hero).where(Hero.name.in_(hero_names))).all()
for hero in heroes:
if team not in hero.teams:
hero.teams.append(team)
session.add(team)
session.commit()
2. 预加载关联数据
from sqlmodel import select
def get_hero_with_teams(hero_name: str):
with Session(engine) as session:
# 使用 join 预加载关联数据，避免 N+1 查询
statement = select(Hero).where(Hero.name == hero_name)
hero = session.exec(statement).first()
# 强制加载关联数据
if hero:
_ = hero.teams # 这会触发关联数据的加载
return hero
return None
3. 事务管理
from contextlib import contextmanager
@contextmanager
def get_session():
session = Session(engine)
try:
yield session
session.commit()
except Exception:
session.rollback()
raise
finally:
session.close()
# 使用上下文管理器确保事务安全
with get_session() as session:
hero = session.exec(select(Hero).where(Hero.name == "Deadpond")).first()
team = session.exec(select(Team).where(Team.name == "Avengers")).first()
if hero and team:
hero.teams.append(team)
常见问题与解决方案
1. 循环导入问题
当模型之间存在循环引用时，使用字符串类型注解：
# 在 Hero 模型中
teams: List["Team"] = Relationship(back_populates="heroes", link_model=HeroTeamLink)
# 在 Team 模型中
heroes: List["Hero"] = Relationship(back_populates="teams", link_model=HeroTeamLink)
2. 关联数据延迟加载
# 确保在会话关闭前访问关联数据
with Session(engine) as session:
hero = session.exec(select(Hero).where(Hero.name == "Deadpond")).first()
teams = hero.teams # 在会话内访问关联数据
print(teams) # 正常工作
# 会话已关闭，以下代码会报错
# print(hero.teams) # ❌ DetachedInstanceError
3. 自定义关联表名
class HeroTeamLink(SQLModel, table=True):
__tablename__ = "hero_team_association" # 自定义表名
team_id: Optional[int] = Field(
default=None, foreign_key="team.id", primary_key=True
)
hero_id: Optional[int] = Field(
default=None, foreign_key="hero.id", primary_key=True
)
