simple-db-connector 0.0.7

Simple database connector for python

Simple_Python_DB_Connector

Python module for simple connection and editing of databases.

Installation

To install the python module, enter the following code in the terminal. Remember, "python" must be swapped with the Python interpreter installed on your system:

python -m pip install simple-db-connector

Usage Example

Call Database Class

First of all, we call the "database" class. Im using the os modul to call my database parameter from my environment variables. I advise you to do this straight away, as it is very bad to have sensitive data such as passwords and IP addresses in plain text:

import  os
from  simple_db_connector  import  database

# Call the database class
db  =  database(
	os.environ["db_url"],
	os.environ["db_user"],
	os.environ["db_password"],
	os.environ["db_port"],
	os.environ["db_name"],
)

After we have called the class, we can also use the functions of the class. All functions are self-explanatory. Nevertheless, I will briefly explain the use of each function:

class database.check_table

Parameter

table name: string

# Example Table Name
table_name = "test_table"

# if "test_table" exists return true, otherwise return false
print(db.check_table(table_name))

It is also executed within the create_table function, so it is not necessary to execute this before you create a table.

class database.create_table

Parameter

table name: string, table content: dict

# Example Table Name
table_name = "cars_table"

# Example Table Content
table_content = {
	"manufacture" : "toyoat",
	"model" : "Aygo X yalp",
	"ps" : 72, 
} 

# Example Table creation
db.create_table(table_name, table_content)

This will create the table "cars_table" with the information contained in "test_content". In addition, a primary key field with the name "id" will be created too. Currently this field is hard coded with a GUID field. In the near future, however, it will be possible to declare your own primary key field.

class database.check_db_entry

Parameter

table: string, search_parameter: dict

# Example Table Name 
table_name =  "cars_table"  

# Example Search Parameter
search_parameter =  {
	"manufacture" : "toyoat"
}  

# Example Table creation 
db.check_db_entry(table_name, search_parameter)

This will create the table "cars_table" with the information contained in "test_content". In addition, a primary key field with the name "ID" will be created too. Currently this field is hard coded with a GUID field. In the near future, however, it will be possible to declare your own primary key field.

# Example Table Name 
table_name =  "cars_table"  

# Example Search Parameter
search_parameter =  {
	"manufacture" : "toyoat",
	"model" : "Aygo X yalp",
}  

# Example Table creation 
db.check_db_entry(table_name, search_parameter)

It's also possible to have multiple search parameter

class database.create_db_entry

Parameter

table: string, data: dict, prime_key: string; default value = "id"

# Example Table Name 
table_name =  "cars_table"  

# Example Table Content
table_content = {
	"manufacture" : "toyoat",
	"model" : "Aygo X yalp",
	"ps" : 72, 
} 

# Example Table prime key
prime_key = "id"
# To illustrate this, I have entered "id". However, if "prime_key" is empty, "id" is selected.

# Example 
db.create_db_entry(table_name, table_content, prime_key)

class database.get_db_entrys

Parameter

table: string, search_parameter: dict

# Example Table Name 
table_name =  "cars_table"  

# Example Search Parameter
search_parameter =  {
	"manufacture" : "toyoat"
} 

# Example Table creation 
db.get_db_entrys(table_name, search_parameter)

# Example Table Name 
table_name =  "cars_table"  

# Example Search Parameter
search_parameter =  {
	"manufacture" : "toyoat",
	"model" : "Aygo X yalp",
}  

# Example Table creation 
db.get_db_entrys(table_name, search_parameter)

As with check_db_entry, it is also possible to use several search parameters here

class database.update_entry

Parameter

table: string, search_parameter: dict, update_parameter dict

# Example Table Name 
table_name =  "cars_table"  

# Example Search Parameter
search_parameter =  {
	"manufacture"  :  "toyoat"
}  
# Example Update Parameter
search_parameter =  {
	"manufacture"  :  "toyota"
} 

# Example Table creation 
db.update_entry(table_name, search_parameter)

# Example Table Name 
table_name =  "cars_table"  

# Example Search Parameter
search_parameter =  {
	"manufacture" : "toyoat",
	"model" : "Aygo X yalp",
}  
# Example Update Parameter
search_parameter =  {
	"manufacture"  :  "toyota"
	"model" : "Aygo X play",
} 

# Example Table creation 
db.update_entry(table_name, search_parameter)

It's also possible to use multiple search and update parameter here
