Project description

This package provides a python interface to the SQL Anywhere database server. This interface conforms to PEP 249.

Requirements

Before installing the sqlanydb interface please make sure the following components are installed on your system.

  • Python 2.4 or greater

  • Python ctypes module if missing

  • SQL Anywhere 10 or higher

Installing the sqlanydb module

Run the following command as an administrative user to install sqlanydb:

python setup.py install

Alternatively, you can use pip:

pip install sqlanydb

Testing the sqlanydb module

To test that the Python interface to SQL Anywhere is working correctly first start the demo database included with your SQL Anywhere installation and then create a file named test_sqlany.py with the following contents:

import sqlanydb
conn = sqlanydb.connect(uid='dba', pwd='sql', eng='demo', dbn='demo' )
curs = conn.cursor()
curs.execute("select 'Hello, world!'")
print "SQL Anywhere says: %s" % curs.fetchone()
curs.close()
conn.close()

Run the test script and ensure that you get the expected output:

> python test_sqlany.py
SQL Anywhere says: Hello, world!
