使用ID代替对象填充SQLAlchemy多对多关系

python

情况:

因此,我在SQLAlchemy中使用关联表具有基本的多对多关系。
例如,一个人可以参加许多聚会,而一个聚会可以有许多人作为客人:

class Person(Base):
    __tablename__ = 'person'
    id      = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
    name    = db.Column(db.String(50))


class SexyParty(Base):
    __tablename__ = 'sexy_party'
    id      = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
    guests  = relationship('Person', secondary='guest_association',
                        lazy='dynamic', backref='parties')

guest_association = Table(
    'guest_association',
    Column('user_id',       Integer(), ForeignKey('person.id')),
    Column('sexyparty.id',  Integer(), ForeignKey('sexyparty.id'))
)

通常,如果我想添加参加聚会的嘉宾列表,我会执行以下操作:

my_guests = [prince, olivia, brittany, me]
my_party.guests = guests
db.session.commit()

…其中prince,olivia和brittany都是<Person>实例,而my_party是<SexyParty>实例。

我的问题

我想使用个人ID而不是实例将客人添加到聚会中。例如:

guest_ids = [1, 2, 3, 5]
my_party.guests = guest_ids  # <-- This fails, because guest_ids
                             # are not <Person> instances

我总是可以从数据库中加载实例,但这将导致不必要的数据库查询,只是为了设置简单的多对多关系。

我将如何.guests使用person_id的列表来设置属性?必须有一种简单的方法来执行此操作,因为关联表最终还是使用ID来表示多对多关系…

预先感谢,希望问题清楚。
