Introduction

DictMySQL is a MySQL query builder on the top of PyMySQL. It allows convenient database manipulation with Python dictionary.

DictMySQL simplifies and unifies the input/output of MySQL queries, by allowing passing values and conditions in dictionary into database. With DictCursor, you can even have a dict-in, dict-out mysql connector.

To install:

pip install dictmysql

Quick example:

from dictmysql import DictMySQL
db = DictMySQL(db='occupation', host='127.0.0.1', user='root', passwd='')

db.select(table='jobs',
          columns=['id','value'],
          where={'$OR': [{'value': {'$LIKE': 'Artist%'}}, {'id': 10}]})
# SELECT `id`, `value` FROM `jobs` WHERE (`value` LIKE "Artist%") OR (`id` = 10);

With DictCursor:

from dictmysql import DictMySQL, cursors
db = DictMySQL(db='occupation', host='127.0.0.1', user='root', passwd='',
               cursorclass=cursors.DictCursor)

db.select(table='jobs',
          columns=['id','value'],
          limit=2)
# returns [{u'id': 1, u'value': u'Artist'}, {u'id': 2, u'value': u'Engineer'}]

Future Works

1. Full support of CRUD

2. Better documents
