pyrqlite

This package contains a pure-Python rqlite client library.

  • Python -- one of the following:
  • rqlite Server

The last stable release is available on github and can be installed with pip:

$ pip install git+https://github.com/rqlite/pyrqlite.git

You can also just clone the repo and install it from source:

$ git clone https://github.com/rqlite/pyrqlite.git
$ cd pyrqlite
$ python setup.py install

Finally (e.g. if pip is not available), a tarball can be downloaded from GitHub and installed with Setuptools:

$ # X.Y.Z is the desired pyrqlite version (e.g. 2.2.1).
$ curl -L https://github.com/rqlite/pyrqlite/archive/refs/tags/vX.Y.Z.tar.gz | tar xz
$ cd pyrqlite*
$ python setup.py install
$ # The folder pyrqlite* can be safely removed now.

You mean need to run the installation process with root privileges.

To run all the tests, execute the script setup.py:

$ python setup.py test

pytest (https://pytest.org/) and pytest-cov are required to run the test suite. They can both be installed with pip

The following code creates a connection and executes some statements:

import pyrqlite.dbapi2 as dbapi2

# Connect to the database
connection = dbapi2.connect(
    host='localhost',
    port=4001,
)

try:
    with connection.cursor() as cursor:
        cursor.execute('CREATE TABLE foo (id integer not null primary key, name text)')
        cursor.executemany('INSERT INTO foo(name) VALUES(?)', seq_of_parameters=(('a',), ('b',)))

    with connection.cursor() as cursor:
        # Read a single record with qmark parameter style
        sql = "SELECT `id`, `name` FROM `foo` WHERE `name`=?"
        cursor.execute(sql, ('a',))
        result = cursor.fetchone()
        print(result)
        # Read a single record with named parameter style
        sql = "SELECT `id`, `name` FROM `foo` WHERE `name`=:name"
        cursor.execute(sql, {'name': 'b'})
        result = cursor.fetchone()
        print(result)
finally:
    connection.close()

This example will print:

(1, 'a') (2, 'b')

Only qmark and named paramstyles (as defined in PEP 249) are supported.

Transactions are not supported.
