python-dbutil

A very thin wrapper around Python's DB API 2.0 standard.

Status

Alpha

Overview

Just a couple of little wrappers & helper methods for manipulating databases with Python.

Prerequisites

  • Python 2.6+
  • A DB API 2.0 compatible database driver

Installation

pip install dbutil

Usage

connect() ... close()

import dbutil

conn = dbutil.connect("mysql://root@localhost/foo_db")
# ... do stuff ...
conn.close()

Context Manager

import dbutil

with dbutil.connect(...) as conn:
    # ... do stuff ...

Get a single value

num_users = conn.one("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM users")
print num_users

Get the first row from a result set

user = conn.row("SELECT * FROM users WHERE id=%s", (1,))
print user

Get all rows from a result set

users = conn.all("SELECT * FROM users")
print users

Efficiently iterate over a result set

for user in conn.iter("SELECT * FROM users"):
    print user

Efficiently apply a function to each row returned by a query

def print_user(user):
    print user
conn.each(print_user, "SELECT * FROM users")

Efficiently apply a map function to each row returned by a query

emails = conn.map(lambda row: row["email"], "SELECT * FROM users")

conn.execute("INSERT INTO users VALUES (%s, %s, SHA(%s))", (1, 'me@foo.com', 'password'))

Fall-through to Python DB API 2.0

# standard DB API stuff works too
crs = conn.cursor()
# ...
