examples.vertical.dictlike-polymorphic

"""Mapping a polymorphic-valued vertical table as a dictionary.

Builds upon the dictlike.py example to also add differently typed
columns to the "fact" table, e.g.::

  Table('properties', metadata
        Column('owner_id', Integer, ForeignKey('owner.id'),
               primary_key=True),
        Column('key', UnicodeText),
        Column('type', Unicode(16)),
        Column('int_value', Integer),
        Column('char_value', UnicodeText),
        Column('bool_value', Boolean),
        Column('decimal_value', Numeric(10,2)))

For any given properties row, the value of the 'type' column will point to the
'_value' column active for that row.

This example approach uses exactly the same dict mapping approach as the
'dictlike' example.  It only differs in the mapping for vertical rows.  Here,
we'll use a @hybrid_property to build a smart '.value' attribute that wraps up
reading and writing those various '_value' columns and keeps the '.type' up to
date.
