SQLAlchemy ORM conversion to pandas DataFrame
Below should work in most cases:
df = pd.read_sql(query.statement, query.session.bind)
See pandas.read_sql
documentation for more information on the parameters.
Just to make this more clear for novice pandas programmers, here is a concrete example,
pd.read_sql(session.query(Complaint).filter(Complaint.id == 2).statement,session.bind)
Here we select a complaint from complaints table (sqlalchemy model is Complaint) with id = 2
The selected solution didn't work for me, as I kept getting the error
AttributeError: 'AnnotatedSelect' object has no attribute 'lower'
I found the following worked:
df = pd.read_sql_query(query.statement, engine)
