Quick Start

# Create model
model = ConstructionDataModel("Office Building A")
Add standard entities
model.add_entity(ConstructionEntities.project_entity())
model.add_entity(ConstructionEntities.activity_entity())
model.add_entity(ConstructionEntities.cost_item_entity())
Add relationships
model.create_relationship("activities", "projects")
model.create_relationship("cost_items", "projects")
Generate SQL
sql = model.generate_sql_schema("postgresql")
print(sql)

Common Use Cases

1. Custom Entity

model.create_entity(
    name="change_orders",
    description="Project change orders",
    fields=[
        {"name": "id", "type": "integer", "nullable": False, "constraints": ["primary_key"]},
        {"name": "project_id", "type": "integer", "nullable": False},
        {"name": "amount", "type": "float"},
        {"name": "status", "type": "string"}
    ]
)

2. Generate ER Diagram

er_diagram = model.generate_er_diagram()
print(er_diagram)

3. Validate Model

issues = model.validate_model()
for issue in issues:
    print(f"Issue: {issue}")

Resources

# Create model
model = ConstructionDataModel("Office Building A")
Add standard entities
model.add_entity(ConstructionEntities.project_entity())
model.add_entity(ConstructionEntities.activity_entity())
model.add_entity(ConstructionEntities.cost_item_entity())
Add relationships
model.create_relationship("activities", "projects")
model.create_relationship("cost_items", "projects")
Generate SQL
sql = model.generate_sql_schema("postgresql")
print(sql)
