Setup alembic to work properly with PostgreSQL schemas

here is my solution for work properly with PostgreSQL schema using asyncpg and asyncio in sqlalchemy.

what counts is like the official document and above said
configure filter object from specified schema

def include_name(name, type_, parent_names):
    if type_ == "schema":
        return name == target_metadata.schema
    else:
        return True

context.configure(
        connection=connection,
        target_metadata=target_metadata,

        version_table_schema=target_metadata.schema,
        include_schemas=True,
        include_name=include_name
    )

After spending a lot of time struggling to get my alembic to work, with a schema_name other than "public", I've come up with the following solution:
[The only solution that worked for me on February 16, 2024]

def run_migrations_online() -> None:
    """Run migrations in 'online' mode.

    In this scenario we need to create an Engine
    and associate a connection with the context.

    """
    connectable = engine_from_config(
        config.get_section(config.config_ini_section, {}),
        prefix="sqlalchemy.",
        poolclass=pool.NullPool,
    )

    with connectable.connect() as connection:
        context.configure(connection=connection, target_metadata=target_metadata)

        connection.execute(text('set search_path to "%s"' % settings.postgres_db_schema)) #  <-- The magic line

        with context.begin_transaction():
            context.run_migrations()

Hope this helps

This solution works for me. Thanks to share it!
