def bind_processor(self, dialect): (source)

Return a conversion function for processing bind values. Returns a callable which will receive a bind parameter value as the sole positional argument and will return a value to send to the DB-API. If processing is not necessary, the method should return ``None``. .. note:: This method is only called relative to a **dialect specific type object**, which is often **private to a dialect in use** and is not the same type object as the public facing one, which means it's not feasible to subclass a :class:`.types.TypeEngine` class in order to provide an alternate :meth:`_types.TypeEngine.bind_processor` method, unless subclassing the :class:`_types.UserDefinedType` class explicitly. To provide alternate behavior for :meth:`_types.TypeEngine.bind_processor`, implement a :class:`_types.TypeDecorator` class and provide an implementation of :meth:`_types.TypeDecorator.process_bind_param`. .. seealso:: :ref:`types_typedecorator` :param dialect: Dialect instance in use.
