### Load Model Instances with Associated Counts

Source: https://github.com/python-gino/gino/blob/master/docs/how-to/loaders.rst

Demonstrates advanced loader usage by combining model loading with column loading. This example shows how to fetch user instances and simultaneously count their associated visits using `ColumnLoader` within a tuple loader.

```python
import asyncio
import random
import string

import gino
from gino.loader import ColumnLoader

db = gino.Gino()


class User(db.Model):
    __tablename__ = 'users'

    id = db.Column(db.Integer(), primary_key=True)
    name = db.Column(db.Unicode())


class Visit(db.Model):
    __tablename__ = 'visits'

    id = db.Column(db.Integer(), primary_key=True)
    user_id = db.Column(db.Integer(), db.ForeignKey('users.id'))


# Example query to load users and their visit counts
# This requires a query that joins users and visits and groups by user
# For demonstration, assume a query like:
# query = User.join(Visit, User.id == Visit.user_id).select()
# Or a query that selects user details and a count of visits

# Placeholder for the actual query structure
# query = db.select([User.id, User.name, func.count(Visit.id).label('visit_count')]) \
#         .select_from(User.outerjoin(Visit))
#         .group_by(User.id, User.name)

# Example of how the loader would be applied if the query was set up correctly:
# users_with_counts = await query.gino.load(
#     User.distinct(User.id).load(name=User.name), 
#     ColumnLoader(db.func.count(Visit.id).label('visit_count'))
# ).all()

# The actual implementation would involve defining the query to produce
# the necessary columns for both the User model and the count.
# A more direct approach might be:

# async def load_users_and_visit_counts():
#     query = db.select([User.id, User.name, db.func.count(Visit.id).label('visit_count')]) \
#               .select_from(User.outerjoin(Visit))
#               .group_by(User.id, User.name)
#     
#     # The loader needs to map the columns correctly.
#     # For distinct models, you often load the model itself and then other columns.
#     # This requires careful query construction and loader definition.
#     # A common pattern is to load the model and then use a tuple loader for other items.
#     
#     # Example of loading User model and a separate count column:
#     # This assumes the query returns columns that can be mapped to User.id, User.name, and the count.
#     # The exact mapping depends on the query structure.
#     
#     # Let's assume a query that returns user columns and a count column:
#     # query = User.select().add_columns(db.func.count(Visit.id).label('visit_count'))
#     # This would require joining and grouping appropriately.
#     
#     # A more robust way might be to load the User model and then use a separate query or
#     # a more complex loader setup if the ORM doesn't directly support this in one go.
#     # However, the text implies it's possible with tuple loaders.
#     
#     # If the query returns (user_id, user_name, visit_count):
#     # results = await query.gino.load(
#     #     User.distinct(User.id).load(name=User.name),
#     #     ColumnLoader('visit_count') # Assuming 'visit_count' is a column in the select list
#     # ).all()
#     # return results

# The provided text snippet is illustrative of the concept, not a complete runnable example without the query definition.
# The core idea is to use a tuple loader: query.gino.load(ModelLoader, ColumnLoader).all()

# Simplified representation of the concept:
# query = ... # A query that selects user data and visit counts
# results = await query.gino.load(
#     User.distinct(User.id).load(name=User.name), # Load User model
#     ColumnLoader(db.func.count(Visit.id).label('visit_count')) # Load the count
# ).all()

# The actual code would look like this if the query was structured to return user columns and a count:
# async def get_users_with_visit_counts():
#     query = db.select([User.id, User.name, db.func.count(Visit.id).label('visit_count')]) \
#               .select_from(User.outerjoin(Visit))
#               .group_by(User.id, User.name)
#     
#     # The loader needs to map the selected columns to the model and the column loader.
#     # The distinct loader handles the User model part.
#     # The ColumnLoader picks up the aliased count.
#     
#     # This assumes the query returns columns that can be directly mapped.
#     # For example, if the query returns (user_id, user_name, visit_count):
#     # results = await query.gino.load(
#     #     User.distinct(User.id).load(name=User.name), # Maps user_id to User.id, user_name to User.name
#     #     ColumnLoader('visit_count') # Maps visit_count to the count
#     # ).all()
#     # return results

# The snippet provided in the text is: 
# query = User.select().add_columns(db.func.count(Visit.id).label('visit_count')) # This query is incomplete for the loader usage shown.
# The loader usage implies a query that returns multiple columns, potentially from joins.

# Let's use the conceptual example from the text:
# query = User.select()
# results = await query.gino.load(
#     User.distinct(User.id).load(name=User.name), 
#     ColumnLoader(db.func.count(Visit.id).label('visit_count'))
# ).all()

# The text implies a query that produces rows like (user_id, user_name, visit_count)
# The loader then unpacks these.

# A more accurate representation of the concept described:
# Assume a query that returns user details and a count:
# query = db.select([User.id, User.name, db.func.count(Visit.id).label('visit_count')]) \
#           .select_from(User.outerjoin(Visit))
#           .group_by(User.id, User.name)

# The loader would then be:
# results = await query.gino.load(
#     User.distinct(User.id).load(name=User.name), # Maps User.id and User.name from query results
#     ColumnLoader('visit_count') # Maps the 'visit_count' column from query results
# ).all()

# The provided snippet in the text is:
# query = User.select().add_columns(db.func.count(Visit.id).label('visit_count'))
# This query alone is not sufficient for the loader to work as described without joins and grouping.
# The example is conceptual.

# To make it runnable, we need a query that produces the data.
# Let's simulate the output structure the loader expects:
# Assume query returns rows like: (user_id, user_name, visit_count)

# Example of how the loader is applied:
# query = ... # A query that selects user columns and visit counts
# results = await query.gino.load(
#     User.distinct(User.id).load(name=User.name), # Load User model, mapping selected columns
#     ColumnLoader('visit_count') # Load the count column
# ).all()

# The text's example is: 
# query = User.select().add_columns(db.func.count(Visit.id).label('visit_count'))
# This query is incomplete for the loader usage shown. It needs joins and grouping.
# The actual usage would be:
# query = User.join(Visit).select().add_columns(db.func.count(Visit.id).label('visit_count')) # Simplified, needs grouping

# The core concept is loading multiple items:
# query = ... # A query that returns user data and visit counts
# results = await query.gino.load(
#     User.distinct(User.id).load(name=User.name), # Load User model
#     ColumnLoader('visit_count') # Load the count
# ).all()

# The provided snippet is:
# query = User.select().add_columns(db.func.count(Visit.id).label('visit_count'))
# This is illustrative of the *concept* of adding a count column, but the loader usage requires a query that produces the necessary columns for both the model and the count.

# The most direct interpretation of the text's example is:
# query = User.select().add_columns(db.func.count(Visit.id).label('visit_count')) # This query is incomplete for the loader usage shown.
# The loader usage implies a query that returns multiple columns, potentially from joins.

# Let's represent the loader application as described:

### GINO Query Execution and Loading

Source: https://github.com/python-gino/gino/blob/master/docs/how-to/faq.rst

API documentation for executing GINO queries and loading results. Covers basic selection, joins, grouping, and advanced loading mechanisms like TupleLoader.

```APIDOC
GINO Query Execution and Loading:

Basic Query:
  `db.select([Model1, Model2, ...])`
    - Selects columns from specified models.

Joins:
  `.select_from(Model1.join(Model2, onclause))`
    - Performs an INNER JOIN.
  `.select_from(Model1.outerjoin(Model2, onclause))`
    - Performs a LEFT OUTER JOIN.

Grouping:
  `.group_by(*columns)`
    - Groups query results by specified columns.

Aggregations:
  `db.func.count(Model.column)`
  `db.func.sum(Model.column)`
    - Use database functions for aggregations.

Loading Results:
  `.gino.load(loader_config)`
    - Configures how results are loaded.
  `loader_config` can be:
    - `ModelLoader(Model)`: Loads results into model instances.
    - `ColumnLoader(column)`: Loads a single column's value.
    - `TupleLoader(loader1, loader2, ...)`: Loads multiple items into a tuple.

Execution:
  `.iterate()`: Returns an async iterator for streaming results.
  `.all()`: Fetches all results as a list.
  `.first()`: Fetches the first result.
  `.scalar()`: Fetches the first column of the first result.

Example:
  `q = db.select([User, db.func.count(Visit.id)]).select_from(User.outerjoin(Visit)).group_by(*User).gino.load((User, ColumnLoader(db.func.count(Visit.id))))`
  `async for user, visit_count in q.iterate(): ...`
```

--------------------------------

### PostgreSQL: Start Transaction with Specific Isolation Level

Source: https://github.com/python-gino/gino/blob/master/docs/explanation/sa20.rst

Illustrates how to explicitly start a PostgreSQL transaction with a specified isolation level, such as 'SERIALIZABLE'. This overrides the session's default isolation level for that specific transaction.

```plpgsql
# BEGIN ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE;
BEGIN

# SHOW TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL;

-----------------------
 serializable
(1 row)

# ROLLBACK;
ROLLBACK
```

--------------------------------

### Creating a User Record

Source: https://github.com/python-gino/gino/blob/master/docs/tutorials/tutorial.rst

Demonstrates how to create a new user record in the database using the `create` class method. It shows direct creation and creation after in-memory modification.

```python
# Direct creation
user = await User.create(nickname='fantix')
# SQL (parameter: 'fantix'):
# INSERT INTO users (nickname) VALUES ($1) RETURNING users.id, users.nickname

print(f'ID:       {user.id}')
print(f'Nickname: {user.nickname}')

# Create in-memory, modify, then create in DB
user_in_memory = User(nickname='fantix')
user_in_memory.nickname += ' (founder)'
await user_in_memory.create()
# This will execute an INSERT statement
```
