The db_scripts package provides the core database infrastructure for the Merlin system.

This package defines the models, entities, and management logic required to persist, retrieve, and manipulate data stored in Merlin's database. It encapsulates both low-level data models and high-level entity managers, offering a structured, maintainable interface for all database interactions within the system.

Subpackages

• entities/: Contains entity classes that wrap database models and expose higher-level operations such as save, delete, and reload.
• entity_managers/: Provides manager classes that orchestrate CRUD operations across entity types, with support for inter-entity references and cleanup routines.

Modules:

Name	Description
data_models.py	Defines the dataclasses used to represent raw records in the database, such as StudyModel, RunModel, etc.
merlin_db.py	Contains the MerlinDatabase class, which aggregates all entity managers and acts as the central access point for database operations across the system.
