SQLAlchemy does not generate sequence for primary key field - postgresql

I have the following model:
class GeoLocation(Base):
__tablename__ = "geolocations"
id = Column(SmallInteger, primary_key=True)
name = Column(String(8), nullable=False)
coordinates = Column(String(80), nullable=False)
Using SQLAlchemy 0.9.8 and postgresql 9.3.6 it produces the right create statements:
CREATE TABLE geolocations (
id SMALLSERIAL NOT NULL,
name VARCHAR(8) NOT NULL,
coordinates VARCHAR(80) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (id)
)
On another machine, same SQLAlchemy version but with postgresql 9.1.13 it does not, producing:
CREATE TABLE geolocations (
id SMALLINT NOT NULL,
name VARCHAR(8) NOT NULL,
coordinates VARCHAR(80) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (id)
)
Any pointers?


Seem that the difference in in the support for the smallserial datatype. This is not available for postgres 9.1.13:

How do you create the table structure in PostgreSQL to make a many-to-many relationship

my example so far I would like to know how to create a many to many relationship with these.
CREATE TABLE accounts (
id SERIAL,
first_name VARCHAR(50),
last_name VARCHAR (50),
username VARCHAR (50),
password VARCHAR (500),
account_Type VARCHAR (10),
bday VARCHAR (50),
PRIMARY KEY(id)
);
CREATE TABLE bank_account(
id SERIAL,
account_number INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
account_balance INTEGER
);

you can create a table like this one:
CREATE TABLE bank_account_accounts(
id serial primary key,
accounts_id integer,
bank_account_id integer
);

relation tables inheritance modeling

I want to understand inheritance in postgresql, simple whitch columns in whitch tables.
CREATE TABLE users (
id serial PRIMARY KEY,
username VARCHAR UNIQUE NOT NULL,
email VARCHAR NOT NULL,
password_salt VARCHAR,
password_hash VARCHAR,
avatar serial
)
CREATE TABLE groups (
id serial PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
name VARCHAR,
email VARCHAR,
avatar serial,
)
CREATE TABLE accounts (
id serial PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
name VARCHAR,
avatar serial,
rating json NOT NULL,
);
CREATE TABLE users_to_accounts (
id serial PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
start_time DATETIME NOT NULL,
end_time DATETIME,
)
CREATE TABLE account_subscryptions (
user_id serial NOT NULL,
account_id serial NOT NULL,
) INHERITS users_to_accounts
CREATE TABLE account_memberships (
user_id serial NOT NULL,
account_id serial NOT NULL,
) INHERITS users_to_accounts
CREATE TABLE users_to_groups (
id serial PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
start_time DATETIME NOT NULL,
end_time DATETIME,
)
CREATE TABLE group_subscryptions (
user_id serial NOT NULL,
group_id serial NOT NULL,
) INHERITS users_to_groups
CREATE TABLE group_memberships (
user_id serial NOT NULL,
group_id serial NOT NULL,
) INHERITS users_to_groups
Now.
1. Is it good design to have foreign keys in child tables an all common data in "abstract" table?
2. Is there any traps in future changes of database with inherited relantion tables?
3. I am all wrong and there is a better way for this schema?
4. I want to create good database schema and generate graphql api in postgraphile, looking in google for half day, did not gave me any one good or best solution, so every link will by great.
It may be usefull for others, I think. Thanks

NOTE THAT: There's no existing tables on the said Schema I have made. What have I missed?

I think you have two ways of doing this.
The first one: don't run one create schema statement, but run individual statements for each part (this is what I prefer). You can still do that as a single transaction:
begin transaction;
CREATE SCHEMA testSchema; -- only create the namespace
-- make the new schema the default schema
-- so the the tables do not need to be full qualified
set search_path = testschema;
create table REF_PRODUCT (
...
);
create table TXN_LINE_ITEM (
...
);
create table TXN_PRODUCT_PICTURE (
...
);
create table TXN_TRANSACTION_RECORD (
...
);
alter table REF_PRODUCT
add constraint fk_product_picture
foreign key (picture_id)
references TXN_PRODUCT_PICTURE;
alter table TXN_LINE_ITEM
add constraint FK_line_item_trans_record
foreign key (transactionRecord_id)
references TXN_TRANSACTION_RECORD;
create table SEQ_ENTITY_ID (
sequence_name varchar(255),
sequence_next_hi_value int4
);
commit;
The other option is to move the foreign keys into the table definition, but then you need to re-order your create table statements:
CREATE SCHEMA testSchema
create table TXN_PRODUCT_PICTURE (
...
)
create table TXN_TRANSACTION_RECORD (
...
)
create table REF_PRODUCT (
...,
constraint fk_product_picture
foreign key (picture_id)
references TXN_PRODUCT_PICTURE
)
create table TXN_LINE_ITEM (
...
constraint FK_line_item_trans_record
foreign key (transactionRecord_id)
references TXN_TRANSACTION_RECORD
)
create table SEQ_ENTITY_ID (
sequence_name varchar(255),
sequence_next_hi_value int4
)
;
Unrelated, but:
What is this SEQ_ENTITY_ID table for? Why don't you use native Postgres sequences. They will be much faster, more scalable and more robust than anything you can do in your application to generate unique numbers

Add association in entity framework 5

In a legacy product I have the following two tables:
Create Table City (
Id int identity not null,
Gid uniqueidentifier not null,
Name varchar(25) not null,
constraint PK_City Primary Key(Id)
)
Create Table CityExtra(
Gid uniqueidentifier not null,
CityGid uniqueidentifier not null,
ExtraName varchar(25) not null,
constraint PK_CityExtra Primary Key(Gid)
)
In the EF editor I would like to create a one-one relation between these two entities.
Creating the association is not a problem, but how do I create the association mappings between City.Gid and CityExtra.CityGid (City.Gid is not a key)?
Or is this not possible?

pgAdmin - When trying to make a foreign key "referencing" gives no options

I have three tables: ModelingAgency.clients, ModelingAgency.models, ModelingAgency.Bookings. All three tables have a primary key column called id.
The table bookings has two columns that reference clients and models. In pgAdmin when I try to create a foreign key in bookings to either clients or models I get the following screens:
What am I overlooking here? I am new to PostgreSQL (This is my first test project with PostgreSQL -- I've always used MySQL and occasionally SQL Server) so it's probably something obvious (I just don't see it).
EDIT: Here is the DDL, as requested:
-- Table: "ModelingAgency.bookings"
-- DROP TABLE "ModelingAgency.bookings";
CREATE TABLE "ModelingAgency.bookings"
(
id integer NOT NULL DEFAULT nextval('"ModelingAgency.Bookings_id_seq"'::regclass),
"clientId" integer NOT NULL,
"modelId" integer NOT NULL,
"time" timestamp with time zone NOT NULL DEFAULT now(),
"location" character varying(100) NOT NULL DEFAULT 'No Location Selected'::character varying,
CONSTRAINT "bookingId" PRIMARY KEY (id)
)
WITH (
OIDS=FALSE
);
ALTER TABLE "ModelingAgency.bookings" OWNER TO "MyBatisTutorial";
-- Table: "ModelingAgency.clients"
-- DROP TABLE "ModelingAgency.clients";
CREATE TABLE "ModelingAgency.clients"
(
id integer NOT NULL DEFAULT nextval('"ModelAgency.clients_id_seq"'::regclass),
"name" character varying(45) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT "clientId" PRIMARY KEY (id)
)
WITH (
OIDS=FALSE
);
ALTER TABLE "ModelingAgency.clients" OWNER TO "MyBatisTutorial";
-- Table: "ModelingAgency.models"
-- DROP TABLE "ModelingAgency.models";
CREATE TABLE "ModelingAgency.models"
(
id serial NOT NULL,
"name" character varying(45) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT "modelId" PRIMARY KEY (id)
)
WITH (
OIDS=FALSE
);
ALTER TABLE "ModelingAgency.models" OWNER TO "MyBatisTutorial";

Looking into your posted DDL code I see that your table's names are written in wrong way (that causes your issue with pgAdmin):
"ModelingAgency.bookings"
It should be in format "schema"."tableName":
"ModelingAgency"."bookings"
After that Object browser looks like this (probably you need to create schema first using easily pgAdmin or with CREATE SCHEMA SQL statement):
Here is working DDL code (I omitted some things like OIDS and OWNER TO, but that doesn't matter to your case, BTW OIDS are false on default):
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS "ModelingAgency"."bookings";
CREATE TABLE "ModelingAgency"."bookings"
(
id serial,
"clientId" integer NOT NULL,
"modelId" integer NOT NULL,
"time" timestamp with time zone NOT NULL DEFAULT now(),
"location" character varying(100) NOT NULL
DEFAULT 'No Location Selected'::character varying,
CONSTRAINT "bookingId" PRIMARY KEY (id)
);
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS "ModelingAgency"."clients";
CREATE TABLE "ModelingAgency"."clients"
(
id serial,
"name" character varying(45) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT "clientId" PRIMARY KEY (id)
);
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS "ModelingAgency"."models";
CREATE TABLE "ModelingAgency"."models"
(
id serial NOT NULL,
"name" character varying(45) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT "modelId" PRIMARY KEY (id)
)
