def __init__(self, day_precision=None, second_precision=None): (source)

Construct an INTERVAL. Note that only DAY TO SECOND intervals are currently supported. This is due to a lack of support for YEAR TO MONTH intervals within available DBAPIs. :param day_precision: the day precision value. this is the number of digits to store for the day field. Defaults to "2" :param second_precision: the second precision value. this is the number of digits to store for the fractional seconds field. Defaults to "6".

def as_generic(self, allow_nulltype=False): (source)

Return an instance of the generic type corresponding to this type using heuristic rule. The method may be overridden if this heuristic rule is not sufficient. >>> from sqlalchemy.dialects.mysql import INTEGER >>> INTEGER(display_width=4).as_generic() Integer() >>> from sqlalchemy.dialects.mysql import NVARCHAR >>> NVARCHAR(length=100).as_generic() Unicode(length=100) .. versionadded:: 1.4.0b2 .. seealso:: :ref:`metadata_reflection_dbagnostic_types` - describes the use of :meth:`_types.TypeEngine.as_generic` in conjunction with the :meth:`_sql.DDLEvents.column_reflect` event, which is its intended use.
