</span>If the database you are using is MariaDB or MySQL, then you should be able to<br>
set default values for columns in the table definition. Then when you do an<br>
INSERT into only some columns, the rest will be populated with the default<br>
values.<br>
<br>
To alter the structure of an already-created table, use something like<br>
<br>
ALTER TABLE stuff CHANGE COLUMN foo foo VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL DEFAULT "wibble";<br>
<br>
(Yes, the column name should be there twice: you might want to rename it, so<br>
you have to specify an old and a new name even if the two are the same.)<br>
<br>
You will then need to use something like<br>
<br>
UPDATE stuff SET foo="wibble" WHERE foo IS NULL;<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>While this will work, your defaults may not survive the next time alembic is run to upgrade the database.
