A simple wrapper for Python psycopg2

Project description

# pg_simple

An ultra simple wrapper over Python psycopg2 with support for basic SQL functionality.

## Installation

With `pip` or `easy_install`:

```pip install simplemysql```

or:

```easy_install simplemysql```

Or from the source:

```python setup.py install```

# Basic Usage

### Connecting to the posgtresql server:

```python
import sys
from pg_simple import PgSimple

db = pg_simple.PgSimple(host='127.0.0.1',
database='pg_simple',
user='postgres',
password='secret',
log=sys.stdout,
log_fmt=lambda x: '>> %s' % (x if isinstance(x, str) else x.query),
nt_cursor=True)
```

### Raw SQL execution:

```python
>>> db.execute('SELECT tablename FROM pg_tables WHERE schemaname=%s and tablename=%s', ['public', 'books'])
<cursor object at 0x102352a50; closed: 0>

# Setting up test database...

db.execute('DROP TABLE IF EXISTS "books"')

db.execute('''CREATE TABLE "books" (
"id" SERIAL NOT NULL,
"genre" VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL,
"name" VARCHAR(40) NOT NULL,
"price" MONEY NOT NULL,
"published" DATE NOT NULL,
"modified" TIMESTAMP(6) NOT NULL DEFAULT now()
)''')

db.execute('''ALTER TABLE "books" ADD CONSTRAINT "books_pkey" PRIMARY KEY ("id")''')
```

### Inserting a row:

```python
for i in range(1, 10):
db.insert("books",
{"genre": "fiction",
"name": "Book Name vol. %d" % i,
"price": 1.23 * i,
"published": "%d-%d-1" % (2000 + i, i)})

db.commit()
```

### Updating rows:

```python
with pg_simple.PgSimple(dsn='dbname=pg_simple user=postgres') as db1:
db1.update('books',
data={'name': 'An expensive book',
'price': 998.997,
'genre': 'non-fiction',
'modified': 'NOW()'},
where=('published = %s', [datetime.date(2001, 1, 1)]))

db1.commit()
```


### Fetching a single record:

```python
book = db.fetchone('books',
fields=['name', 'published'],
where=('published = %s', [datetime.date(2002, 2, 1)]))

print(book.name + 'was published on ' + book[1])
```

### Fetching multiple records:

```python
books = db.fetchall('books',
fields=['name AS n', 'genre AS g'],
where=('published BETWEEN %s AND %s', [datetime.date(2005, 2, 1), datetime.date(2009, 2, 1)]),
order=['published', 'DESC'],
limit=5,
offset=2)

for book in books:
print(book.n + 'belongs to ' + book[1])
```
