Type-Safe ORM With Prisma Client & Real Python at PyCon US 2022

59 min • 22 april 2022

Are you using an Object-Relational Mapper (ORM) for your Python projects? What if it could work with SQL or No-SQL databases and be fully type-safe? This week on the show, Robert Craigie talks about Prisma Client Python.

Prisma Client Python is built on top of Prisma, which was created for TypeScript and Node.js. It uses a schema file to declare your application’s data models and relationships in a human-readable form. The schema file allows you to easily switch the database type.

Prisma Client is different from other Python ORMs. It is fully type-safe and can be used with or without async.

We talk about how Robert started the project and what types of challenges he’s faced. He also shares areas of improvement and how to contribute to the project.

We also have a conversation with several Real Python core team members about PyCon US 2022. We will have a booth at the conference where we hope you’ll come and connect with us. The team also shares what to expect from PyCon and what they’re excited about this year.
