Configuring Flask-SQLAlchemy to use multiple databases with Flask-Restless

Question

I have a Flask app that uses Flask-SQLAlchemy and I'm trying to configure it to use multiple databases with the Flask-Restless package.

According to the docs, configuring your models to use multiple databases with __bind_key__ seems pretty straightforward.

However, it doesn't seem to be working for me.

This was not working because of a simple typo:

__bind_key = 'db1'

Should have been

__bind_key__ = 'db1'
