        """Invoke a series of per-table migrations in batch.

        Batch mode allows a series of operations specific to a table
        to be syntactically grouped together, and allows for alternate
        modes of table migration, in particular the "recreate" style of
        migration required by SQLite.

        "recreate" style is as follows:

        1. A new table is created with the new specification, based on the
           migration directives within the batch, using a temporary name.

        2. the data copied from the existing table to the new table.

        3. the existing table is dropped.

        4. the new table is renamed to the existing table name.

        The directive by default will only use "recreate" style on the
        SQLite backend, and only if directives are present which require
        this form, e.g. anything other than ``add_column()``.   The batch
        operation on other backends will proceed using standard ALTER TABLE
        operations.

        The method is used as a context manager, which returns an instance
        of :class:`.BatchOperations`; this object is the same as
        :class:`.Operations` except that table names and schema names
        are omitted.  E.g.::

            with op.batch_alter_table("some_table") as batch_op:
                batch_op.add_column(Column('foo', Integer))
                batch_op.drop_column('bar')

        The operations within the context manager are invoked at once
        when the context is ended.   When run against SQLite, if the
        migrations include operations not supported by SQLite's ALTER TABLE,
        the entire table will be copied to a new one with the new
        specification, moving all data across as well.

        The copy operation by default uses reflection to retrieve the current
        structure of the table, and therefore :meth:`.batch_alter_table`
        in this mode requires that the migration is run in "online" mode.
        The ``copy_from`` parameter may be passed which refers to an existing
        :class:`.Table` object, which will bypass this reflection step.

        .. note::  The table copy operation will currently not copy
           CHECK constraints, and may not copy UNIQUE constraints that are
           unnamed, as is possible on SQLite.

        :param table_name: name of table
        :param schema: optional schema name.
        :param recreate: under what circumstances the table should be
         recreated. At its default of ``"auto"``, the SQLite dialect will
         recreate the table if any operations other than ``add_column()`` are
         present. Other options include ``"always"`` and ``"never"``.
        :param copy_from: optional :class:`~sqlalchemy.schema.Table` object
         that will act as the structure of the table being copied.  If omitted,
         table reflection is used to retrieve the structure of the table.

        can also be specified at once and the backend should

        separately or together as the backend allows.

        MySQL has special requirements here, since MySQL
        cannot ALTER a column without a full specification.

        ``existing_server_default``, and ``existing_nullable``

        and  :class:`~sqlalchemy.types.Enum` may also

        types on backends that don't support them natively.

        :param column_name: string name of the target column,
         as it exists before the operation begins.
        :param nullable: Optional; specify ``True`` or ``False``
         to alter the column's nullability.
        :param server_default: Optional; specify a string
         SQL expression, :func:`~sqlalchemy.sql.expression.text`,
         or :class:`~sqlalchemy.schema.DefaultClause` to indicate
         an alteration to the column's default value.
         Set to ``None`` to have the default removed.
        :param new_column_name: Optional; specify a string name here to
         indicate the new name within a column rename operation.
        :param ``type_``: Optional; a :class:`~sqlalchemy.types.TypeEngine`
         type object to specify a change to the column's type.
         For SQLAlchemy types that also indicate a constraint (i.e.
         :class:`~sqlalchemy.types.Boolean`, :class:`~sqlalchemy.types.Enum`),
         the constraint is also generated.
        :param autoincrement: set the ``AUTO_INCREMENT`` flag of the column;
         currently understood by the MySQL dialect.
        :param existing_type: Optional; a
         :class:`~sqlalchemy.types.TypeEngine`
         type object to specify the previous type.   This
         is required for all MySQL column alter operations that
         don't otherwise specify a new type, as well as for
         when nullability is being changed on a SQL Server
         column.  It is also used if the type is a so-called
         SQLlchemy "schema" type which may define a constraint (i.e.
         :class:`~sqlalchemy.types.Boolean`,
         :class:`~sqlalchemy.types.Enum`),
         so that the constraint can be dropped.
        :param existing_server_default: Optional; The existing
         default value of the column.   Required on MySQL if
         an existing default is not being changed; else MySQL
         removes the default.
        :param existing_nullable: Optional; the existing nullability
         of the column.  Required on MySQL if the existing nullability
         is not being changed; else MySQL sets this to NULL.
        :param existing_autoincrement: Optional; the existing autoincrement
         of the column.  Used for MySQL's system of altering a column
         that specifies ``AUTO_INCREMENT``.

        This feature combines with the SQLAlchemy ``naming_convention`` feature
        to disambiguate constraint names that have already had naming
        conventions applied to them, versus those that have not.  This is
        necessary in the case that the ``"%(constraint_name)s"`` token
        is used within a naming convention, so that it can be identified
        that this particular name should remain fixed.

        If the :meth:`.Operations.f` is used on a constraint, the naming
        convention will not take effect::

            op.add_column('t', 'x', Boolean(name=op.f('ck_bool_t_x')))

        Above, the CHECK constraint generated will have the name
        ``ck_bool_t_x`` regardless of whether or not a naming convention is
        in use.

        Alternatively, if a naming convention is in use, and 'f' is not used,
        names will be converted along conventions.  If the ``target_metadata``
        contains the naming convention
        ``{"ck": "ck_bool_%(table_name)s_%(constraint_name)s"}``, then the
        output of the following:

            op.add_column('t', 'x', Boolean(name='x'))

        will be::

            CONSTRAINT ck_bool_t_x CHECK (x in (1, 0)))

        The function is rendered in the output of autogenerate when
        a particular constraint name is already converted, for SQLAlchemy
        version **0.9.4 and greater only**.   Even though ``naming_convention``
        was introduced in 0.9.2, the string disambiguation service is new

        When using :meth:`.Operations.inline_literal` in conjunction with
        :meth:`.Operations.bulk_insert`, in order for the statement to work
        in "online" (e.g. non --sql) mode, the
        :paramref:`~.Operations.bulk_insert.multiinsert`
        flag should be set to ``False``, which will have the effect of
        individual INSERT statements being emitted to the database, each
        with a distinct VALUES clause, so that the "inline" values can
        still be rendered, rather than attempting to pass the values
        as bound parameters.

           list.   Setting this to False results in individual INSERT
           statements being emitted per parameter set, and is needed
           in those cases where non-literal values are present in the

        literal values,
        which is that they are converted into bound values and passed

        An offline SQL

        security hole in an application that handles untrusted input,

        that can run in "offline" mode.  For full interaction

        from the context::

            from alembic import op

        Also note that any parameterized statement here *will not work*
        in offline mode - INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE statements which refer
        to literal values would need to render
        inline expressions.   For simple use cases, the
        :meth:`.inline_literal` function can be used for **rudimentary**
        quoting of string values.  For "bulk" inserts, consider using

        of course works perfectly fine as well, though note it's a
        recommended practice to at least ensure the definition of a
