MaazDB-Py 🐍

The Official Python Driver for MaazDB

maazdb-py is a pure-Python client library for interacting with the MaazDB engine. It implements the custom MaazDB binary protocol over a secure TLS 1.3 socket, allowing Python applications to communicate with your database safely and efficiently.

✨ Features

• Secure by Default: Automatic TLS 1.3 encryption for all communications.
• Pure Python: No heavy C-extensions; easy to install and cross-platform.
• Context Manager Support: Use with statements for safe connection handling.
• Binary Protocol: Optimized communication using the MaazDB Binary Protocol v1.
• Lightweight: Minimal dependencies.

📦 Installation

From PyPI

pip install maazdb-py

From Source

git clone https://github.com/42Wor/maazdb-py.git
cd maazdb-py
pip install .

🛠 Quick Start

Basic Usage

from maazdb import MaazDB

# 1. Initialize the client
db = MaazDB()

try:
    # 2. Connect securely
    db.connect(host="127.0.0.1", port=8888, user="admin", password="password")
    print("✓ Connected to MaazDB")

    # 3. Execute SQL
    db.query("CREATE DATABASE analytics;")
    db.query("USE analytics;")
    db.query("CREATE TABLE logs (id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY, message TEXT);")
    
    # 4. Insert and Fetch
    db.query("INSERT INTO logs (message) VALUES ('System started');")
    results = db.query("SELECT * FROM logs;")
    print(f"Results:\n{results}")

except Exception as e:
    print(f"An error occurred: {e}")

finally:
    # 5. Always close the connection
    db.close()

Using Context Managers (Recommended)

The driver supports the with statement, which automatically closes the connection even if an error occurs.

from maazdb import MaazDB

with MaazDB() as db:
    db.connect("127.0.0.1", 8888, "admin", "password")
    result = db.query("SELECT count(*) FROM users;")
    print(f"Total users: {result}")

📋 API Reference

MaazDB()

The main class to interact with the database.

• .connect(host, port, user, password): Establishes a TLS 1.3 connection and performs the handshake.
• .query(sql_string): Sends a SQL query to the server and returns the result as a string.
• .close(): Safely closes the socket connection.

🔐 Security & Protocol

The driver communicates using the MaazDB Binary Protocol v1. All data is packed as Big Endian (>I).
