PySQLPool Object Reference

This is a standard object reference for PySQLPool. Being that PySQLPool is a connection pooling wrapper around MySQLdb many of the same methods and parameters are support. You can kind hints or further docs by reading the MySQLdb Documentation at http://mysql-python.sourceforge.net/MySQLdb-1.2.2/

PySQLPool

PySQLPool.__version__
PySQLPool Version Number
PySQLPool.__author__
PySQLPool Author String
PySQLPool.getNewConnection(*args, **kargs)
Fast function to generate a new PySQLConnection instance. Arguments are those of PySQLConnection
PySQLPool.getNewQuery([connection[, commitOnEnd[, **kargs]]])

Fast method to generate a new PySQLQuery instance.

If an instance of a PySQLConnection object is passes for the connection parameter. It will be used for the connection. Otherwise **kargs will be used to generate a PySQLConnection instance via the getNewConnection() method.

PySQLPool.getNewPool()
Returns a reference to the current PySQLPool object
PySQLPool.terminatePool()
Causes PySQLPool to commit and terminate all your current MySQL connections
PySQLPool.commitPool()
Causes PySQLPool to commit all your current MySQL connections
PySQLPool.cleanupPool()
Causes PySQLPool to analyse all current MySQL connections, and clean up an dead connections.

PySQLPool.PySQLQuery

The PySQLQuery class is by far one of the biggest work horses in the whole PySQLPool library, next to the PySQLPool class. It is responsable for handaling the execution of your query(s). Which in itself is a lot of work. PySQLQuery handles talking to the heart of PySQLPool, The PySQLPool class. To fetch a new connection or one that has been estabished. It then creates a MySQL cursor object to handle the execution of your sql statement against your MySQL database.

class PySQLPool.PySQLQuery(PySQLConnectionObj[, commitOnEnd])
Pool
Used to store a reference to the PySQLPool object
connInfo
Used to store the connection information to be used for talking to the db. This is a PySQLConnection instance.
commitOnEnd
A boolean flag used to tell the connection that it should auto commit your statement at the end of its execution.
record
A storage reference to your results that where returned from your last select statement.
rowcount
The number of rows returned by your last select statement.
affectedRows
The number of affected rows that your last delete/insert/update statement affected.
conn
An internaly used reference to the current locked connection as returned by the PySQLPool class. This is an instance of a PySQLConnectionManager object.
lastError
A reference to the last MySQL error as returned by the under lying MySQLdb library. You can reference this if you need. But PySQLQuery will raise this error forward for you to catch yourself.
lastInsertID
The last auto incrament ID that an insert statement create.
__del__()
The destructor method used for freeing up any locked connections that may not have be release do to some reason.
Query(query[, args])
Depricated alias for query()
query(query[, args])

Executes the given query.

query - string, query to execute on server args - optional sequence or mapping, parameters to use with query

Note: If args is a sequence, then %s must be used as the parameter placeholder in the query. If a mapping is used, %(key)s must be used as the placeholder.

Returns the number of affected rows.

QueryOne(query[, args])
Depricated alias for queryOne()
queryOne(query[, args])

A generator style version of query().

Parameters are the same as query(), but instead of fetching all the data from the server at once. It is returned one row at a time for every iteration. Each row will be returned as well as record can still be used to access the current row.

queryMany(query, args)
executeMany(query, args)

Execute a multi-row query.

query - string, query to execute on server args - sequence of sequences or mappings, parameters to use with query.

Returns the number of affected rows

queryMulti(queries)
executeMulti(queries)

Executes a sequence of query strings

Each sequence item and be a sequence or a string. If item is a sequence the 1st item but be the query. The 2nd must be the replacement sequence or mapping to use with the query.

Returns the total number of affected rows

_GetConnection()
Private method used to fetch a connection from the central pool of connections
_ReturnConnection()
Private method used to return a connection to the central pool of connections
escape()
Varius string escape methods as provided by MySQLdb. Each matchs a function of the same name in MySQLdb
escapeString()
See escape()
escape_string()
See escape()

PySQLPool.PySQLPool

class PySQLPool.PySQLPool

Terminate()
Cleanup()

GetConnection(PySQLConnectionObj)
returnConnection(connObj)

PySQLPool.PySQLConnection

PySQLPool.connection_timeout

A datetime.timedelta representing your default MySQL connection_timeout. This is used to improve performance with checking to see if connections are valid and reconnecting if needed. Each connection instance maintains a timestamp of its last activity. That is updated for every query or test. The connection is auto tested for every new instance of a PySQLQuery created on its initial fetching of a connection.

class PySQLPool.PySQLConnection([host[, user[, passwd[, db[, port]]]]], **kargs)

Command Pattern Object to store connection information for use in PySQLPool

Supported kargs are:
  • host - string, host to connect
  • user,username - string, user to connect as
  • passwd,password - string, password to use
  • db,schema - string, database to use
  • port - integer, TCP/IP port to connect to
  • unix_socket - string, location of unix_socket to use
  • conv - conversion dictionary, see MySQLdb.converters
  • connect_timeout - number of seconds to wait before the connection attempt fails.
  • compress - if set, compression is enabled
  • named_pipe - if set, a named pipe is used to connect (Windows only)
  • init_command - command which is run once the connection is created
  • read_default_file - file from which default client values are read
  • read_default_group - configuration group to use from the default file
  • cursorclass - class object, used to create cursors (keyword only)
  • use_unicode - If True, text-like columns are returned as unicode objects using the connection’s character set. Otherwise, text-like columns are returned as strings. columns are returned as normal strings. Unicode objects will always be encoded to the connection’s character set regardless of this setting.
  • charset - If supplied, the connection character set will be changed to this character set (MySQL-4.1 and newer). This implies use_unicode=True
  • sql_mode - If supplied, the session SQL mode will be changed to this setting (MySQL-4.1 and newer). For more details and legal values, see the MySQL documentation.
  • client_flag - integer, flags to use or 0 (see MySQL docs or constants/CLIENTS.py)
  • ssl - dictionary or mapping, contains SSL connection parameters; see the MySQL documentation for more details (mysql_ssl_set()). If this is set, and the client does not support SSL, NotSupportedError will be raised.
  • local_inifile - integer, non-zero enables LOAD LOCAL INFILE; zero disables

Note: There are a number of undocumented, non-standard methods. See the documentation for the MySQL C API for some hints on what they do.

info

Dictionary containing the connection info to be passed off to the MySQLdb layer

key

An auto generated md5 checksum to represent your connection in the pool. This is generated off of the username, password, host, and db/schema.
