I can't show the data from database sqlite in python.
connection = sqlite3.connect('db')
connection.cursor().execute('CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS users ( \
id TEXT, \
name TEXT, \
avatar TEXT \
)')
# In cycle:
query = 'INSERT INTO users VALUES ("' + str(friend.id) + '", "' + friend.name + '", "' + friend.avatar +'" )'
print query
connection.cursor().execute(query)
connection.commit()
# After cycle
print connection.cursor().fetchall()
Sample output of query variable:
INSERT INTO users VALUES ("111", "Some Name", "http://avatar/path" )
In result, fetchall returns empty tuple. Why?
UPD
Forgotten code:
connection.cursor().execute('SELECT * FROM users')
connection.cursor().fetchall()
→
[]
INSERT does not return data. To get the data back out, you'll have to issue a SELECT statement.
import sqlite3
con = sqlite3.connect("db")
con.execute("create table users(id, name, avatar)")
con.execute("insert into users(id, name, avatar) values (?, ?, ?)", (friend.id, friend.name, friend.avatar))
con.commit()
for row in con.execute("select * from users")
print row
con.close()
Because the create table string as displayed is syntactically invalid Python, as is the insert into string.
Actually, the answer to your first question is: because you use different cursors.
connection.cursor() creates a new cursor in the connection you created before. fetchall() gives you the results of the query you executed before in that same cursor. I.e. what you did was this:
# After cycle
cursor1 = connection.cursor()
cursor1.execute('SELECT * FROM users')
cursor2 = connection.cursor()
cursor2.execute("")
cursor2.fetchall()
What you should have done was this:
# After cycle
cursor = connection.cursor()
cursor.execute('SELECT * FROM users')
print cursor.fetchall()

Error Message:
cursor.execute('SELECT ALL FROM shop ')
sqlite3.OperationalError: near "FROM": syntax error
It used to work and then I added the delete function and now it gives me this syntax error, I didn't even make any changes on that function. The code is based on a Udemy tutorial, and with the same changes applied on the video I got this error message but the tutor did not. As you can guess I am pretty new to this stuff and I cant decipher the error message, or at least if it means any more than the obvious. So yeah thanks in advance
SELECT ALL should be SELECT ALL * or just SELECT * to select all columns in all rows. See the syntax here.
DELETE * FROM shop should be DELETE FROM shop. DELETE deletes whole rows, it doesn't need a list of columns. See the syntax here.
I am struggling to establish a connection inside data iteration. Means I am running a select query to postgres and iterating the return data. after some transformation I am writing it to another table. But it is not working. Sample python code is below.
conn = pgconn(------)
cursor = pgconn.Cursor()
query1 = "select * from table"
query2 = "select * from table2 where Id=(%s);"
cursor.execute(query1)
result = query1.fetchall()
for row in result:
If row.a == 2:
cursor.execute(query2, [row.time])
In the above python code I can't able to extract the data by running query2 and passing query1 result as a parameter. It seems cursor is blocked by the query1 so query2 execution is not happening. Please some one help in this issue.
First of all you can write a join statement to do this and can get the data easily
select * from table join table2 where table2.id == table.time
Also why this is not working maybe because the cursor object is getting override inside the for loop and thus the query results get changed.
Use RealDictCursor, and correct the syntax on your inside call to execute():
import psycopg2
import psycopg2.extras
conn = pgconn(------)
cursor = conn.cursor(cursor_factory=psycopg2.extras.RealDictCursor)
query1 = "select * from table"
query2 = "select * from table2 where Id=(%s);"
cursor.execute(query1)
result = query1.fetchall()
for row in result:
If row.a == 2:
cursor.execute(query2, (row['time'],))
1. install psycopg2 and psycopg2.extras. ( pip install)
Then set up your Postgres Connection like:
def Postgres_init(self):
try:
conn = psycopg2.connect(host=os.environ['SD_POSTGRES_SERVER'],
user=os.environ['SD_POSTGRES_USER'],
password=os.environ['SD_POSTGRES_PASSWORD'],
port=os.environ['SD_POSTGRES_PORT'],
database=os.environ['SD_POSTGRES_DATABASE'])
logging.info("Connected to PostgreSQL")
except (Exception, psycopg2.Error) as error:
logging.info(error)
2. Connect your Cursor with the defined connection
cursor = conn.cursor()
3. Execute your query:
cursor.execute("""SELECT COUNT (column1) from tablename WHERE column2 =%s""", (
Value,)) # Check if already exists
result = cursor.fetchone()
Now the value is stored in the "result" variable. Now you can execute the next query like:
cursor.execute("""
INSERT INTO tablename2
(column1, column2, column3)
VALUES
(%s, %s, %s)
ON CONFLICT(column1) DO UPDATE
SET
column2=excluded.column2,
column3=excluded.column3;
""", (result, column2, column3)
)
Now the result of query 1 is stored in the second table in the first column.
Now you can close your connection:
conn.close()
I have a problem getting the query results from my Python-Code. The connection to the database seems to work, but i always get the error:
"InterfaceError: No result set to fetch from."
Can somebody help me with my problem? Thank you!!!
cnx = mysql.connector.connect(
host="127.0.0.1" ,
user="root" ,
passwd="*****",
db="testdb"
)
cursor = cnx.cursor()
query = ("Select * from employee ;")
cursor.execute(query)
row = cursor.fetchall()
If your problem is still not solved, you can consider replacing the python mysql driver package and use pymysql.
You can write code like this
#!/usr/bin/python
import pymysql
db = pymysql.connect(host="localhost", # your host, usually localhost
user="test", # your username
passwd="test", # your password
db="test") # name of the data base
# you must create a Cursor object. It will let
# you execute all the queries you need
cur = db.cursor()
query = ("SELECT * FROM employee")
# Use all the SQL you like
cur.execute(query)
# print all the first cell of all the rows
for row in cur.fetchall():
print(row[0])
db.close()
This should be able to find the result you want
add this to your code
for i in row:
print(i)
you did not print anything which is why that's not working
this will print each row in separate line
first try to print(row),if it fails try to execute using the for the loop,remove the semicolon in the select query statement
cursor = connection.cursor()
rows = cursor.execute('SELECT * FROM [DBname].[dbo].TableName where update_status is null ').fetchall()
for row in rows:
ds = row[0]
state = row[1]
here row[0] represent the first columnname in the database
& row[1] represent the second columnname in the database & so on
I have a problem with my python code which I want to use for a REST API server.
The current problem is that my database query is returning null when I know that the value is there
The code for the specific path:
#app.route('/data/active_predicted/<int:ticketId>', methods=['GET'])
def search_db_tickId_act(ticketId):
cursor = db.cursor()
db_query = cursor.execute("select * from active_predicted where ticketId=" + str(ticketId))
json_output = json.dumps(dict(cursor.fetchall()))
cursor.close()
if not cursor.fetchall():
return "Nothing found \n SQL Query: " + "select * from active_predicted where ticketId=" + str(ticketId)
else:
return str(cursor.fetchall())
When I access this URL I get returned the following:
Nothing found SQL Query: select * from active_predicted where ticketId=1324
When I plug this SQL query I get the result I want, 1 row with 2 columns but it seems as though the program cannot locate the row?
The problems:
As #pvg mentioned, you need to escape your input values when querying database;
If you want to fetch a dictionary-like result, passing dictionary=True when you initialize the cursor;
In your original code, you didn't return the variable json_output;
To fetch only one result, use fetchone instead fetchall;
After cursor.close() got called, you can obtain nothing from that cursor no matter you fetched before or not;
Use try-finally to ensure that cursor always get closed (at last).
Here's the fixed code:
#app.route('/data/active_predicted/<int:ticketId>', methods=['GET'])
def search_db_tickId_act(ticketId):
try:
cursor = db.cursor(dictionary=True)
db_query = cursor.execute("select * from active_predicted where ticketId=%s LIMIT 1", ticketId)
row = cursor.fetchone()
if row:
return json.dumps(row)
else:
return "Nothing found \n SQL Query: " + "select * from active_predicted where ticketId=" + str(ticketId)
finally:
cursor.close()
I'm using Python and psycopg2 to interface to postgres.
When I insert a row...
sql_string = "INSERT INTO hundred (name,name_slug,status) VALUES ("
sql_string += hundred_name + ", '" + hundred_slug + "', " + status + ");"
cursor.execute(sql_string)
... how do I get the ID of the row I've just inserted? Trying:
hundred = cursor.fetchall()
returns an error, while using RETURNING id:
sql_string = "INSERT INTO domes_hundred (name,name_slug,status) VALUES ("
sql_string += hundred_name + ", '" + hundred_slug + "', " + status + ") RETURNING id;"
hundred = cursor.execute(sql_string)
simply returns None.
UPDATE: So does currval (even though using this command directly into postgres works):
sql_string = "SELECT currval(pg_get_serial_sequence('hundred', 'id'));"
hundred_id = cursor.execute(sql_string)
Can anyone advise?
thanks!
cursor.execute("INSERT INTO .... RETURNING id")
id_of_new_row = cursor.fetchone()[0]
And please do not build SQL strings containing values manually. You can (and should!) pass values separately, making it unnecessary to escape and SQL injection impossible:
sql_string = "INSERT INTO domes_hundred (name,name_slug,status) VALUES (%s,%s,%s) RETURNING id;"
cursor.execute(sql_string, (hundred_name, hundred_slug, status))
hundred = cursor.fetchone()[0]
See the psycopg docs for more details: http://initd.org/psycopg/docs/usage.html#passing-parameters-to-sql-queries
I ended up here because I had a similar problem, but we're using Postgres-XC, which doesn't yet support the RETURNING ID clause. In that case you can use:
cursor.execute('INSERT INTO ........')
cursor.execute('SELECT LASTVAL()')
lastid = cursor.fetchone()['lastval']
Just in case it was useful for anyone!
Consider a RETURNING clause http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/static/sql-insert.html
For me, neither ThiefMaster's answer worked nor Jamie Brown's. What worked for me was a mix of both, and I'd like to answer here so it can help someone else.
What I needed to do was:
cursor.execute('SELECT LASTVAL()')
id_of_new_row = cursor.fetchone()[0]
The statement lastid = cursor.fetchone()['lastval'] didn't work for me, even after cursor.execute('SELECT LASTVAL()'). The statement id_of_new_row = cursor.fetchone()[0] alone didn't work either.
Maybe I'm missing something.
ThiefMaster's approach worked for me, for both INSERT and UPDATE commands.
If cursor.fetchone() is called on a cursor after having executed an INSERT/UPDATE command but lacked a return value (RETURNING clause) an exception will be raised: ProgrammingError('no results to fetch'))
insert_query = """
INSERT INTO hundred (id, name, name_slug, status)
VALUES (DEFAULT, %(name)s, %(name_slug)s, %(status)s)
RETURNING id;
"""
insert_query_values = {
"name": "",
"name_slug": "",
"status": ""
}
connection = psycopg2.connect(host="", port="", dbname="", user="", password="")
try:
with connection:
with connection.cursor() as cursor:
cursor.execute(insert_query, insert_query_values)
num_of_rows_affected = cursor.rowcount
new_row_id = cursor.fetchone()
except psycopg2.ProgrammingError as ex:
print("...", ex)
raise ex
finally:
connection.commit()
connection.close()
