I'm running a basic Amazon Linux AMI VM and trying to set a Python script to run remotely. I have most of the stuff set up, however I can't get pyodbc to install using pip or any other method I've been able to find. It might be missing a dependency or something but it just says, "Failed building wheel for pyodbc". I'm using this to connect to an RDS SQL server database. Any advice on how to get pyodbc working, or on an alternative package to use would be greatly appreciated.
I'm working to an apllication that uses selenium for scraping a webpage and stores the data in a mysql database. I'm using mysql server 8.0 and i want to be able to use this application in a mac computer.
Is there a way to do that? If yes how?
You can install Python and MySQL server on your Mac using Homebrew. From here you can install your necessary Python dependencies via pip and run your application.
Alternatively, you could setup the application as a Docker service with containers for each component. This is probably the easiest way, though you'll need to navigate the docker learning curve.
I use SQLite3 in python because my school computers don't allow us to install anything to python so I used the pre installed SQLite3 module.
I'm working on a program whose back end relies on an SQLite3 database, however the databases are created and stored on their computer.
Is it possible for me to "Host" an SQLite3 database on let's say a server and allow my script to access them remotely (my script could edit the database from my school computer)?
By the way, I'm using python 3.X
EDIT
i made a database api that runs in python 3, its called TaliffDb
to install type pip3 install TaliffDB in your terminal. im working on a documentation, but please do comment if you have any questions
Write an API on the remote server, yes. This could be hosted by a web framework of your choice.
You won't get a direct network connection to a file
I am planning on making a website using Python + Flask + Mysql. My database requirements are very simple and hence I don't plan on using an ORM. Now I have been reading through the tuorials of mysqldb which is a C based mysql connector for Python. How can I install it on openshift?
For installing it on my local pc, I had to run the following two commands.
python setup.py build
python setup.py install
Here is doc that shows how to spin up a Flask app on OpenShift
https://developers.openshift.com/en/python-flask.html
All you do is add the dependencies for the MySQL drivers into your requirements.txt as well and OpenShift will pull the deps and then put them in your app.
I'm trying to use python for manipulating some data in MySQL DB.
DB is on a remote PC. And I will use another PC with Python to connect to the DB.
When I searched how to install MySQLdb module to Python, they all said MySQL need to be installed on the local PC.
Is it right? Or I don't need to install MySQL on the local PC?
You just need it if you want to compile the Python MySQL bindings from source. If you already have the binary version of the python library then the answer is no, you don't need it.
