devart-firebird-connector 1.2.0

New level of functionality and performance in data access via Python

Python Connector for Firebird

Python Connector for Firebird is a connectivity solution for accessing Firebird databases from Python applications. It fully implements the Python DB API 2.0 specification. The connector is distributed as a wheel package for Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Secure communication

The connector supports the Over-the-Wire (OTW) encryption feature of Firebird to encrypt data during the transmission process.

Using the connector

To retrieve data from a database:

Import the module.

import devart.firebird

Connect to a database using the connect() module method and obtain a connection object.

my_connection = devart.firebird.connect(
    Server="your_server",
    Database="your_database",
    UserId="your_username",
    Password="your_password",
    ClientLibrary="your_client_library"
)

Create a cursor object using the cursor() connection method.

my_cursor = my_connection.cursor()

Execute the SQL statement using the execute() cursor method.

my_cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM employees")

Retrieve the result set using one of the fetch*() cursor methods.

for row in my_cursor.fetchall(): 
    print(row)
