Hi ! Thanks for the lib !

Obviously, every possible sql queries won't have a dedicated method.

But I was thinking : a method to delete a row (I'm terrible with names, maybe delete_where() or something, would be useful.

I have a Database, with primary key.

For the moment, I use :

Python3 db.conn.execute(f"DELETE FROM table WHERE key = {key_id}") db.conn.commit() to delete a row I don't need anymore, giving his primary key.

Works like a charm.

Just an idea :

Python3 table.delete_where_pkey({'key': key_id}) or something (I know, I'm terrible at naming methods...).

Pros : well, no need to write SQL query.

Cons : WHERE normally allows to do many more things (operators =, <>, >, <, BETWEEN), not to mention AND, OR, etc... Method is maybe to specific, and/or a pain to render more flexible.

Again, just a thought. Writing his own sql works too, so...

Thanks again. See yah.
