Can't modify attachments after saving! about pykeepass HOT 3 CLOSED

I finally figured this out by looking at the test cases here.

Turns out you have to call kp.reload() after the first kp.save() if you want to keep modifying binaries after a save.

Can this be made explicit in the documentation? In particular because other database actions (e.g., adding entries) do not require a reload if there is a save between them, so this behavior is non-standard and unintuitive.

(Even though the original problem has been fixed, I'll keep this issue open to flag the suggested documentation update.)

I'm not able to reproduce this with your example. Here's my slightly modified code

from pykeepass import PyKeePass

db, password, key = 'test4.kdbx', 'password', 'test4.key'

kp = PyKeePass(db, password, key)
print('before:', kp.binaries)

e = kp.add_entry(kp.root_group, "foo", "", "")
binary_id = kp.add_binary("bar".encode())
e.add_attachment(binary_id, "baz.txt")
kp.save()

kp.delete_binary(binary_id)
kp.save()

kp2 = PyKeePass(db, password, key)
print('after:', kp2.binaries)

I even deleted the self.kp_tmp.reload() you linked to in tests.py and the tests still pass.

I'll assume this is resolved. Reopen if not.
