SQL Python Connect

This document introduces database programming concepts in Python including connecting to a database, creating a database and table, inserting, retrieving, updating, and deleting data from the table. Key concepts covered are connecting to MySQL using the mysql-connector library, executing SQL statements to create a database and table, insert data using executemany(), retrieve data using fetchall(), update records meeting conditions, and delete records by name.

Introduction to Database Programming in Python

Interacting with a database is an important feature in many programming languages including python. In comparision to storing data in flat files, its much
easier to store, retrive and modify data in a database. We are going to learn the following concepts and programming skills.

Creating a Database connection


Creating a Database
Create a Table
Inserting into the table
Retrieving data from Table
Updating Records in a table
Deleting Data in a table

Before you can start working with MySQL database, you need to start the database server. I am using WAMP server for this tutorial. You also need to
install the latest mysql-connetor for this purpose. use pip install mysql-connector in the command window to download and install it.

Connecting to the database server

In [23]: import mysql.connector


con = mysql.connector.connect(host="localhost", user="root", passwd="")
mycursor = con.cursor()
con.close()

Creating a Database

In [3]: import mysql.connector


con = mysql.connector.connect(host="localhost", user="root", passwd="")
mycursor = con.cursor()
mycursor.execute("DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS student")
mycursor.execute("CREATE DATABASE student")
mycursor.execute("USE student")

Creating the Table

In [11]: mycursor.execute("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS studentinfo")


mycursor.execute("CREATE TABLE studentinfo (name VARCHAR(30), age INT(3), gender CHAR(1))")

Inserting data into the table

In [12]: sql = """INSERT INTO studentinfo(name, age, gender)


VALUES('Ashok',17,'M')"""
mycursor.execute(sql)
con.commit()

Inserting multiple rows simultaniously


Here we are going to use the executemany() function that accept two parameters as shpown below.

In [15]: sql = """INSERT INTO studentinfo(name, age, gender)


VALUES(%s, %s, %s)"""
rows = [('Amit', 18,'M'),('Sudha', 17, 'F')]
mycursor.executemany(sql, rows)
con.commit()
con.close()

Reading from Database Table


fetchone() − It fetches the next row of a query result set. A result set is an object that is returned when a cursor object is used to query a table.
fetchall() − It fetches all the rows in a result set. If some rows have already been extracted from the result set, then it retrieves the remaining rows
from the result set.
In [17]: import mysql.connector
con = mysql.connector.connect(host="localhost", user="root", passwd="", database="student")
mycursor = con.cursor()

sql = "SELECT * FROM studentinfo"

mycursor.execute(sql)

result = mycursor.fetchall()

for row in result:


name = row[0]
age = row[1]
gender = row[2]
print("Name=%s, Age=%d, Gender=%c" % (name,age,gender))
con.close()

Name=Ashok, Age=17, Gender=M


Name=Amit, Age=18, Gender=M
Name=Sudha, Age=17, Gender=F
Name=Amit, Age=18, Gender=M
Name=Sudha, Age=17, Gender=F

Updating records in a Table

In [1]: import mysql.connector


con = mysql.connector.connect(host="localhost", user="root", passwd="", database="student")
mycursor = con.cursor()

sql = "UPDATE studentinfo SET age=age-3 WHERE age='%d'" % (21)


mycursor.execute(sql)

sql = "SELECT * FROM studentinfo"

mycursor.execute(sql)

result = mycursor.fetchall()

for row in result:


name = row[0]
age = row[1]
gender = row[2]
print("Name=%s, Age=%d, Gender=%c" % (name,age,gender))
con.close()

Name=Ashok, Age=17, Gender=M


Name=Amit, Age=18, Gender=M
Name=Sudha, Age=17, Gender=F
Name=Amit, Age=18, Gender=M
Name=Sudha, Age=17, Gender=F

Deleting Records from a Table

In [ ]: import mysql.connector
con = mysql.connector.connect(host="localhost", user="root", passwd="", database="student")
mycursor = con.cursor()

sql = "DELETE FROM studentinfo WHERE name='%s'" % ('Ashok')


mycursor.execute(sql)

sql = "SELECT * FROM studentinfo"

mycursor.execute(sql)

result = mycursor.fetchall()

for row in result:


name = row[0]
age = row[1]
gender = row[2]
print("Name=%s, Age=%d, Gender=%c" % (name,age,gender))
con.close()
