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) - We refer to it as the Classic API.

Features

Installation

The recommended way to install Connector/Python is via pip.

Make sure you have a recent pip 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.

$ pip install mysql-connector-python

Installation Options

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

# 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

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()
