Easily add soft-deletion to your SQLAlchemy Models and automatically filter out soft-deleted objects from your queries and relationships.

This package can generate a tailor-made SQLAlchemy Mixin that can be added to your SQLAlchemy Models, making them contain a field that, when set, will mark the entity as being soft-deleted.

The library also installs a hook which dynamically rewrites all selects which are sent to the database for all tables that implement the soft-delete mixin, providing a seamless experience in both manual queries and model relationship accesses.

Mixin generation is fully customizable and you can choose the field name, its type, and the presence of (soft-)delete/undelete methods.
