pyaltibase

Unofficial Python DB-API 2.0 connector for Altibase

pyaltibase provides a Pythonic DB-API 2.0 interface for Altibase databases. The current implementation uses pyodbc as the transport backend and wraps Altibase ODBC connectivity behind a clean, package-owned API surface.

This is an independent community project and is not officially supported by Altibase Corporation. This project is not affiliated with Altibase Corporation.

Why pyaltibase

• Python DB-API 2.0 compatible module surface
• Direct host/port or DSN-based Altibase ODBC connections
• Package-owned exception hierarchy and type constructors with errno/sqlstate preservation
• Dockerized unit-test workflow with a 95% coverage target
• Docker-based end-to-end test harness for licensed Altibase environments

Installation

Python package

pip install pyaltibase

System requirements

• Python 3.10+
• pyodbc
• unixODBC or an equivalent ODBC manager
• An Altibase ODBC driver installed on the host or in the container

Quick Start

import pyaltibase

with pyaltibase.connect(
    host="localhost",
    port=20300,
    database="test",
    user="sys",
    password="manager",
) as conn:
    cursor = conn.cursor()
    cursor.execute("SELECT 1")
    print(cursor.fetchall())

DSN connection

import pyaltibase

conn = pyaltibase.connect(dsn="ALTIBASE_TEST", user="sys", password="manager")

Testing

Unit tests in Docker

make test-docker

This runs the package test suite inside Docker and enforces a 95% coverage threshold.

End-to-end tests in Docker

make test-e2e-docker

The e2e flow expects a licensed Altibase Docker image. See docs/testing.md for the required environment variables.
