I want to verify in batches whether the MySQL account passwords of some IPs are valid, but my code will have the problem of sub-thread blocking. In fact, the last IP has been verified, but the main thread has not ended. I don't know how to modify it. You can provide Some modifications and suggestions?

python cx_Oracle.Connection proxying to share between process - I get an error when creating a cursor on a shared connection object

I am trying to write a load app on Oracle using python and I neeed some concurrency.
I am doing this by sharing a connection pool to be used by child processes but before going into that I tried to share a simple Connection object from a manager process to a child.
The connection object is shared properly using the proxy object, but when I try to create a cursor on this connection I get smth like :
>
And the cursor is not usable.
Here is my code :
import cx_Oracle
from multiprocessing import managers
from multiprocessing import current_process
from multiprocessing import Process
import time
#function to setup the connection object in manager process
def setupConnection(user,password,dsn):
conn = cx_Oracle.connect(user=user,password=password,dsn=dsn)
return conn
#proxy object for my connection
class connectionProxy(managers.BaseProxy):
def close(self):
return self._callmethod('close',args=())
def ping(self):
return self._callmethod('ping',args=())
def cursor(self):
return self._callmethod('cursor',args=())
#connection manager
class connectionManager(managers.BaseManager): pass
#child process work function
def child(conn_proxy):
print(str(current_process().name) + "Working on connection : " + str(conn_proxy))
cur = conn_proxy.cursor()
print(cur)
cur.execute('select 1 from dual');
if __name__ == '__main__' :
#db details
user = 'N974783'
password = '12345'
dsn = '192.168.56.6:1521/orcl'
#setup manager process and open the connection
manager = connectionManager()
manager.register('set_conn',setupConnection,proxytype=connectionProxy,exposed = ('close','ping','cursor'))
manager.start()
#pass the connection to the child process
conn_proxy = manager.set_conn(user=user,password=password,dsn=dsn)
p = Process(target=child, args=(conn_proxy,),name='oraWorker')
p.start()
p.join()
I get the following output:
oraWorker Working on connection : <cx_Oracle.Connection to N974783#192.168.56.6:1521/orcl>
<cx_Oracle.Cursor on <NULL>> ..
cur.execute('select 1 from dual');
cx_Oracle.InterfaceError: not open
Can someone give me an idea on how should I get past this ?
Thanks,
Ionut

The problem is that cursors cannot be passed across the boundary between processes. So you need to wrap the execute method instead. Something like this. You would need to expand it to handle bind variables and the like, of course.
import cx_Oracle
from multiprocessing import managers
from multiprocessing import current_process
from multiprocessing import Process
import time
class Connection(cx_Oracle.Connection):
def execute(self, sql):
cursor = self.cursor()
cursor.execute(sql)
return list(cursor)
#function to setup the connection object in manager process
def setupConnection(user,password,dsn):
conn = Connection(user=user,password=password,dsn=dsn)
return conn
#proxy object for my connection
class connectionProxy(managers.BaseProxy):
def close(self):
return self._callmethod('close',args=())
def ping(self):
return self._callmethod('ping',args=())
def execute(self, sql):
return self._callmethod('execute', args=(sql,))
#connection manager
class connectionManager(managers.BaseManager):
pass
#child process work function
def child(conn_proxy):
print(str(current_process().name) + "Working on connection : " + str(conn_proxy), id(conn_proxy))
result = conn_proxy.execute('select 1 from dual')
print("Result:", result)
if __name__ == '__main__' :
#db details
user = 'user'
password = 'pwd'
dsn = 'tnsentry'
#setup manager process and open the connection
manager = connectionManager()
manager.register('set_conn',setupConnection,proxytype=connectionProxy,exposed = ('close','ping','execute'))
manager.start()
#pass the connection to the child process
conn_proxy = manager.set_conn(user=user,password=password,dsn=dsn)
p = Process(target=child, args=(conn_proxy,),name='oraWorker')
p.start()
p.join()

Python multithreading with sqlite operations

I am using sqlite database to store the data. My python program has a thread pool which contains 5 threads. I was creating a single database connection and sharing it with all 5 threads but some times it throws exception which was not captured by any sqlite exception or generic exception and my python script got killed automatically. After searching for the solution I came across
How to share single SQLite connection in multi-threaded Python application
And I created a separate connections as follows,
class ProcessJob(object):
....
def process_job(self):
job = queue.get()
if job = 'xyz':
with sqlite3.connect(database_path, check_same_thread=False, timeout = 10) as db_conn:
db_conn.execute("insert query on table ABC")
db_conn.commit()
elif job = 'pqr':
with sqlite3.connect(database_path, check_same_thread=False, timeout = 10) as db_conn:
db_conn.execute("update query on table ABC")
db_conn.commit()
elif job = 'mno':
with sqlite3.connect(database_path, check_same_thread=False, timeout = 10) as db_conn:
db_conn.execute("insert query on table FOO")
db_conn.commit()
class MyThread(therading.Thread):
....
process_job_obj = ProcessJob()
def run(self):
while True:
try:
process_job_obj.process_job()
except Exception as e:
logger.exception('Exception : %s'%e)
def main():
for i in range(5):
trd = MyThread()
trd.start()
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
So, Is this a right approach or is there any flaw or chances of stopping/killing the python script?

Accessing a MySQL connection pool from Python multiprocessing

I'm trying to set up a MySQL connection pool and have my worker processes access the already established pool instead of setting up a new connection each time.
I'm confused if I should pass the database cursor to each process, or if there's some other way to do this? Shouldn't MySql.connector do the pooling automatically? When I check my log files, many, many connections are opened and closed ... one for each process.
My code looks something like this:
PATH = "/tmp"
class DB(object):
def __init__(self):
connected = False
while not connected:
try:
cnxpool = mysql.connector.pooling.MySQLConnectionPool(pool_name = "pool1",
**config.dbconfig)
self.__cnx = cnxpool.get_connection()
except mysql.connector.errors.PoolError:
print("Sleeping.. (Pool Error)")
sleep(5)
except mysql.connector.errors.DatabaseError:
print("Sleeping.. (Database Error)")
sleep(5)
self.__cur = self.__cnx.cursor(cursor_class=MySQLCursorDict)
def execute(self, query):
return self.__cur.execute(query)
def isValidFile(self, name):
return True
def readfile(self, fname):
d = DB()
d.execute("""INSERT INTO users (first_name) VALUES ('michael')""")
def main():
queue = multiprocessing.Queue()
pool = multiprocessing.Pool(None, init, [queue])
for dirpath, dirnames, filenames in os.walk(PATH):
full_path_fnames = map(lambda fn: os.path.join(dirpath, fn),
filenames)
full_path_fnames = filter(is_valid_file, full_path_fnames)
pool.map(readFile, full_path_fnames)
if __name__ == '__main__':
sys.exit(main())

First, you're creating a different connection pool for each instance of your DB class. The pools having the same name doesn't make them the same pool
From the documentation:
It is not an error for multiple pools to have the same name. An application that must distinguish pools by their pool_name property should create each pool with a distinct name.
Besides that, sharing a database connection (or connection pool) between different processes would be a bad idea (and i highly doubt it would even work correctly), so each process using it's own connections is actually what you should aim for.
You could just initialize the pool in your init initializer as a global variable and use that instead.
Very simple example:
from multiprocessing import Pool
from mysql.connector.pooling import MySQLConnectionPool
from mysql.connector import connect
import os
pool = None
def init():
global pool
print("PID %d: initializing pool..." % os.getpid())
pool = MySQLConnectionPool(...)
def do_work(q):
con = pool.get_connection()
print("PID %d: using connection %s" % (os.getpid(), con))
c = con.cursor()
c.execute(q)
res = c.fetchall()
con.close()
return res
def main():
p = Pool(initializer=init)
for res in p.map(do_work, ['select * from test']*8):
print(res)
p.close()
p.join()
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
Or just use a simple connection instead of a connection pool, as only one connection will be active in each process at a time anyway.
The number of concurrently used connections is implicitly limited by the size of the multiprocessing.Pool.

Code above creates a connection pool at the beginning, and get connections from it in execute(), once the connection pool has been created, the work is to remain it, since the pool is created only once, it will save the time to request for a connection every time you would like to connect to MySQL.
Hope it helps!

You created multiple DB object instance. In mysql.connector.pooling.py, pool_name is only a attribute to let you make out which pool it is. There is no mapping in the mysql pool.
So, you create multiple DB instance in def readfile(), then you will have several connection pool.
A Singleton is useful in this case.
(I spent several hours to find it out. In Tornado framework, each http get create a new handler, which leads to making a new connection.)

There may be synchronization issues if you're going to reuse MySQLConnection instances maintained by a pool, but just sharing a MySQLConnectionPool instance between worker processes and using connections retrieved by calling the method get_connection() would be okay, because a dedicated socket would be created for each MySQLConnection instance.
import multiprocessing
from mysql.connector import pooling
def f(cnxpool: pooling.MySQLConnectionPool) -> None:
# Dedicate connection instance for each worker process.
cnx = cnxpool.get_connection()
...
if __name__ == '__main__':
cnxpool = pooling.MySQLConnectionPool(
pool_name='pool',
pool_size=2,
)
p0 = multiprocessing.Process(target=f, args=(cnxpool,))
p1 = multiprocessing.Process(target=f, args=(cnxpool,))
p0.start()
p1.start()

Python mysql (using pymysql) auto reconnect

I'm not sure if this is possible, but I'm looking for a way to reconnect to mysql database when the connection is lost. All the connections are held in a gevent queue but that shouldn't matter I think. I'm sure if I put some time in, I can come up with a way to reconnect to the database. However I was glancing pymysql code and I saw that there is a 'ping' method in Connection class, which I'm not sure exactly how to use.
The method looks like it will reconnect first time but after that it switched the reconnect flag to False again? Can I use this method, or is there a different way to establish connection if it is lost? Even if it is not pymysql how do people tackle, database servers going down and having to re-establish connection to mysql server?
def ping(self, reconnect=True):
''' Check if the server is alive '''
if self.socket is None:
if reconnect:
self._connect()
reconnect = False
else:
raise Error("Already closed")
try:
self._execute_command(COM_PING, "")
return self._read_ok_packet()
except Exception:
if reconnect:
self._connect()
return self.ping(False)
else:
raise

Well, I've got the same problem in my application and I found a method on the PyMySQL documentation that pings to the server and check if the connection was closed or not, if it was closed, then it reconnects again.
from pymysql import connect
from pymysql.cursors import DictCursor
# create the connection
connection = connect(host='host', port='port', user='user',
password='password', db='db',
cursorclass=DictCursor)
# get the cursor
cursor = connection.cursor()
# if the connection was lost, then it reconnects
connection.ping(reconnect=True)
# execute the query
cursor.execute(query)
I hope it helps.

Finally got a working solution, might help someone.

The easiest way is to check the connection right before sending a query.
You can do this by creating a small class that contains two methods: connect and query:
import pymysql
import pymysql.cursors
class DB:
def connect(self):
self.conn = pymysql.connect(
host=hostname,
user=username,
password=password,
db=dbname,
charset='utf8mb4',
cursorclass=pymysql.cursors.DictCursor,
port=3306)
def query(self, sql):
try:
cursor = self.conn.cursor()
cursor.execute(sql)
except pymysql.OperationalError:
self.connect()
cursor = self.conn.cursor()
cursor.execute(sql)
return cursor
db = DB()
Now, whenever you send a query using db.query("example SQL") the request is automatically prepared to encounter a connection error and reconnects using self.connect() if it needs to.
Remember: This is a simplified example. Normally, you would want to let PyMySQL help you escape special characters in your queries. To do that, you would have to add a 2nd parameter in the query method and go from there.

the logic is quite simple, if connection close then try to reconnect for several times in this case I use max tries for 15 times to reconnect or ping.
import pymysql, pymysql.cursors
conn = pymysql.connect(
host=hostname,
user=username,
password=password,
db=dbname,
charset='utf8mb4',
cursorclass=pymysql.cursors.DictCursor,
)
cursor = conn.cursor()
# you can do transactions to database and when you need conn later, just make sure the server is still connected
if conn.open is False:
max_try = 15
try = 0
while conn.open is False:
if try < max_try:
conn.ping() # autoreconnect is true by default
try +=1
# check the conn again to make sure it connected
if conn.open:
# statements when conn is successfully reconnect to the server
else:
# it must be something wrong : server, network etc

Old but I encountered a similar problem for accessing hosted db within programs. The solution I ended up using was to create a decorator to automatically reconnect when making a query.
given a connection function:
def connect(self):
self.conn = mysql.connector.connect(host=self.host, user=self.user,
database=self.database, password=self.password)
self.cursor = self.conn.cursor()
print("Established connectionn...")
I created
def _reconnect(func):
#wraps(func)
def rec(self,*args,**kwargs):
try:
result = func(self,*args,**kwargs)
return result
except (mysql.connector.Error, mysql.connector.Warning) as e:
self.connect()
result = func(self,*args,**kwargs)
return result
return rec
Such that any function using the connection can now be decorated as so
#_reconnect
def check_user_exists(self,user_id):
self.cursor.execute("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM _ where user_id={};".format(user_id))
if self.cursor.fetchall()[0][0]==0:
return False
else:
return True
This decorator will re-establish a connection and rerun any function involving a query to the db.

You can use a property to keep the connection alive every time you do querying:
import pymysql
import pymysql.cursors
import pandas as pd
class DB:
def __init__(self, hostname='1.1.1.1', username='root', password='password',
database=None, port=3306, charset="utf8mb4"):
self.hostname = hostname
self.database = database
self.username = username
self.password = password
self.port = port
self.charset = charset
self.connect()
#property
def conn(self):
if not self.connection.open:
print('Going to reconnect')
self.connection.ping(reconnect=True)
return self.connection
def connect(self):
self.connection = pymysql.connect(
host=self.hostname,
user=self.username,
password=self.password,
db=self.database,
charset=self.charset,
cursorclass=pymysql.cursors.DictCursor,
port=self.port)
def query(self, sql):
return pd.read_sql_query(sql, con=self.conn)
db = DB(hostname='1.1.1.1', username='root', password='password', database=None, port=3306, charset="utf8mb4")
