MySQL Connector/Python

.. image:: https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/mysql-connector-python.svg :target: https://pypi.org/project/mysql-connector-python/ .. image:: https://img.shields.io/pypi/pyversions/mysql-connector-python.svg :target: https://pypi.org/project/mysql-connector-python/ .. image:: https://img.shields.io/pypi/l/mysql-connector-python.svg :target: https://pypi.org/project/mysql-connector-python/

MySQL Connector/Python enables Python programs to access MySQL databases, using an API that is compliant with the Python Database API Specification v2.0 (PEP 249) <https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0249/>_ - We refer to it as the Classic API <https://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-python/en/connector-python-reference.html>_.

Features

  • Asynchronous Connectivity <https://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-python/en/connector-python-asyncio.html>_
  • C-extension <https://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-python/en/connector-python-cext.html>_
  • Telemetry <https://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-python/en/connector-python-opentelemetry.html>_

Installation

The recommended way to install Connector/Python is via pip <https://pip.pypa.io/>_.

Make sure you have a recent pip <https://pip.pypa.io/>_ version installed on your system. If your system already has pip installed, you might need to update it. Or you can use the standalone pip installer <https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/installation/>_.

.. code-block:: bash

$ pip install mysql-connector-python

++++++++++++++++++++ Installation Options ++++++++++++++++++++

Connector packages included in MySQL Connector/Python allow you to install optional dependencies to unleash certain functionalities.

.. code-block:: bash

# 3rd party packages to unleash the telemetry functionality are installed
$ pip install mysql-connector-python[telemetry]

This installation option can be seen as a shortcut to install all the dependencies needed by a particular feature. Mind that this is optional and you are free to install the required dependencies by yourself.

Available options:

  • dns-srv
  • gssapi
  • fido2
  • telemetry

Sample Code

.. code:: python

import mysql.connector

# Connect to server
cnx = mysql.connector.connect(
    host="127.0.0.1",
    port=3306,
    user="mike",
    password="s3cre3t!")

# Get a cursor
cur = cnx.cursor()

# Execute a query
cur.execute("SELECT CURDATE()")

# Fetch one result
row = cur.fetchone()
print("Current date is: {0}".format(row[0]))

# Close connection
cnx.close()
