Table Synchronization

Syncing tables involves the process of creating tables from models and saving them to a database. After defining your tables, you will need to synchronize your database tables using the sync method or the connect_and_sync.

1. sync Method

2. connect_and_sync Method

The sync and connect_and_sync method accepts the following arguments:

Argument	Description	Type	Default
models	A collection or a single instance(s) of your table classes that inherit from the Model class.	Model	[]
drop	Whether to drop tables during syncing or not.	bool	False
force	Forcefully drop tables during syncing. In mysql this will temporarily disable foreign key checks when dropping the tables.	bool	False
alter	Alter tables instead of dropping them during syncing or not.	bool	False

Tip

🥇 We recommend you to use drop or force if you are going to change or modify foreign and primary keys. This is because setting the option alter does not have an effect on primary key columns.
