Welcome to the Python-with-MySQL-MariaDB repository! This project demonstrates how to integrate Python with MySQL and MariaDB databases for various data management and manipulation tasks. It includes practical examples and scripts for interacting with these databases using Python, showcasing how to perform common database operations.
This repository provides a set of Python scripts and examples for connecting to and interacting with MySQL and MariaDB databases. It includes code for basic CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations, querying, and managing database connections. The goal is to provide a practical guide for developers looking to work with these databases using Python.
To get started with this project, follow these steps:
Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/Md-Emon-Hasan/Python-with-MySQL-MariaDB.git
Navigate to the project directory:
cd Python-with-MySQL-MariaDB
Install the required packages:
pip install -r requirements.txt
Set up your database:
Run the examples:
The repository includes various Python scripts demonstrating how to:
Connect to MySQL/MariaDB:
import mysql.connector
conn = mysql.connector.connect(
host="localhost",
user="yourusername",
password="yourpassword",
database="yourdatabase"
)
Perform CRUD Operations:
cursor = conn.cursor()
# Create
cursor.execute("INSERT INTO tablename (column1, column2) VALUES (%s, %s)", (value1, value2))
# Read
cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM tablename")
results = cursor.fetchall()
# Update
cursor.execute("UPDATE tablename SET column1 = %s WHERE column2 = %s", (new_value, condition))
# Delete
cursor.execute("DELETE FROM tablename WHERE column1 = %s", (value,))
Recommendations for working with Python and MySQL/MariaDB:
Q: What is the difference between MySQL and MariaDB? A: MariaDB is a fork of MySQL with additional features and improvements. Both are similar, but MariaDB often includes more advanced features and is community-driven.
Q: How do I configure the database connection? A: Update the connection settings in the Python scripts with your database host, user, password, and database name.
Q: Can I use this repository for production applications? A: The repository provides basic examples and is meant for learning and development purposes. For production use, consider additional security and optimization measures.
Common issues and their solutions:
Issue: Connection Error Solution: Verify your database credentials and ensure that the MySQL/MariaDB server is running.
Issue: Import Error
Solution: Ensure all required packages are installed correctly using pip install -r requirements.txt
