SQLAlchemy integration improvements

[diogobaeder]

Hi folks!

First of all: amazing project you guys have! I'm thrilled about my ride so far, Pinot is pretty awesome!

I just wanted to leave some words here though about mixing SQLAlchemy and Pinot. I've just started to use it in a project, and I struggled quite a bit with this integration because I thought I would be able to just use the ORM right out-of-the-box (I know, it's kinda stupid of me to even consider putting "ORM" and "OLAP" together, but having a representational model class in Python is very helpful).

Is there any ongoing effort to try to make this integration easier to put up? I'm considering contributing with this part, in the future, but I don't want to step onto anyone's toes or hinder anyone's work in this direction...

Thanks!

Hi, so far I don't realize any work around this.

So feel free to contribute anything :p

Sure, as soon as I can spend some time here I will, it's a very useful library for us :-)
