Example

The following examples make use of a simple table

CREATE TABLE `users` (
    `id` INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
    `email` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
    `password` varchar(255) NOT NULL
);

import pycovenantsql


# Connect to the database with dsn
# host and port are your local CovenantSQL Adapter server
connection = pycovenantsql.connect(
                             dsn='covenantsql://your_database_id',
                             host='localhost',
                             port=11108,
                             )

try:
    with connection.cursor() as cursor:
        # Create a new record
        sql = "INSERT INTO `users` (`email`, `password`) VALUES (%s, %s)"
        cursor.execute(sql, ('[email protected]', 'very-secret'))

    # connection is autocommit. No need to commit in any case.
    # connection.commit()

    with connection.cursor() as cursor:
        # Read a single record
        sql = "SELECT `id`, `password` FROM `users` WHERE `email`=%s"
        cursor.execute(sql, ('[email protected]',))
        result = cursor.fetchone()
        print(result)
finally:
    connection.close()

This example will print:

{'password': 'very-secret', 'id': 1}
