def instrument_class(self, mapper: Mapper[Any]): (source)

Hook called by the Mapper to the property to initiate instrumentation of the class attribute managed by this MapperProperty. The MapperProperty here will typically call out to the attributes module to set up an InstrumentedAttribute. This step is the first of two steps to set up an InstrumentedAttribute, and is called early in the mapper setup process. The second step is typically the init_class_attribute step, called from StrategizedProperty via the post_instrument_class() hook. This step assigns additional state to the InstrumentedAttribute (specifically the "impl") which has been determined after the MapperProperty has determined what kind of persistence management it needs to do (e.g. scalar, object, collection, etc).

_links_to_entity: bool = (source)

True if this MapperProperty refers to a mapped entity. Should only be True for Relationship, False for all others.
