MySQL Connector/Python contains an implementation of the XDevAPI <https://dev.mysql.com/doc/x-devapi-userguide/en>_

• An Application Programming Interface for working with the MySQL Document Store <https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/en/document-store.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 mysqlx-connector-python

Please refer to the installation tutorial <https://dev.mysql.com/doc/dev/connector-python/installation.html>_ for installation alternatives of the XDevAPI.

++++++++++++++++++++ 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 compression functionality are installed
$ pip install mysqlx-connector-python[compression]

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
• compression

Sample Code

.. code:: python

import mysqlx

# Connect to server
session = mysqlx.get_session(
   host="127.0.0.1",
   port=33060,
   user="mike",
   password="s3cr3t!")
schema = session.get_schema("test")

# Use the collection "my_collection"
collection = schema.get_collection("my_collection")

# Specify which document to find with Collection.find()
result = collection.find("name like :param") \
                   .bind("param", "S%") \
                   .limit(1) \
                   .execute()

# Print document
docs = result.fetch_all()
print(r"Name: {0}".format(docs[0]["name"]))

# Close session
session.close()
