MySQL with Python v3.1 now also possible using MySQL Connector/Python

December 21st, 2009 Leave a comment Go to comments

The second development release of MySQL Connector/Python comes with support for Python v3.1!

I thought of making two distributions of MySQL Connector/Python, but then it would have been messy with versions and packaging. So what you get now is 2-in-1 and the installation script should be smart enough to figure it out.

Please, if you find any issues, bugs or have suggestions: report them here https://bugs.launchpad.net/myconnpy

From LaunchPad!

Release notes

Added Python v3.1 support* The subdirectory/module py3k/ contains Connector/Python compatible  with Python v3.1.1.* setup.py will install the correct Connector/Python distribution  depending on the Python version.* Test cases which were running against Python v2.4+ are also working  under Python v3.1* Examples found in py3k/examples should work with Python v3.1* The code will not check whether the Python version is supported.

Misc.* Using divmod() in MySQLConverter._timedelta_to_mysql()* Avoiding imports and the use of isinstance() by putting code in  exceptions.* Stop using types module.

Installation

Installation is just like before:

  shell> tar xzf mysql-connector-python-0.1.1-devel.tar.gz  shell> cd mysql-connector-python-0.1.1-devel  shell> python setup.py install

    Does this connector work with PyPy and Unladen Swallow? If so, you are my hero! I was looking to test some things on PyPy and the Google python branch for work, but could not get the MySQLdb module compiled the right way. I hope this one will help me here.

    P.S. There is a simple way to use server-side results, right?
