This is my code :

    class csvimportt(Base):
     __tablename__ = 'csvimportt'

      #id = Column(INTEGER, primary_key=True, autoincrement=True)
      aid = Column(INTEGER(unsigned=True, zerofill=True),
          Sequence('article_aid_seq', start=1001, increment=1),
          primary_key=True)

I want to set a autoincrement value from 1000. How do I do it?

Starting from version 1.4, SQLAlechemy has Identity column.

Example copied from documentation:

from sqlalchemy import Table, Column, MetaData, Integer, Identity

metadata = MetaData()


data = Table(
    "data",
    metadata,
    Column(
        'id', Integer, Identity(start=42, cycle=True), primary_key=True
    ),
    Column('data', String)
)

From the SQLAlchemy 1.2 Documentation:

Postgresql 10 has a new IDENTITY feature that supersedes the use of SERIAL. Built-in support for rendering of IDENTITY is not available yet, however the following compilation hook may be used to replace occurrences of SERIAL with IDENTITY:

from sqlalchemy.schema import CreateColumn
from sqlalchemy.ext.compiler import compiles


@compiles(CreateColumn, 'postgresql')
def use_identity(element, compiler, **kw):
    text = compiler.visit_create_column(element, **kw)
    text = text.replace("SERIAL", "INT GENERATED BY DEFAULT AS IDENTITY")
    return text
