▼3. Python code to save results of select query for MySQL into a file
3-1. Creating python code
Python code “runmysqlquery.py” is created to save results of select statement for MySQL into a file. according to your environment, parameters should be changed.
import pyodbc
driver = '{MYSQL ODBC 8.0 Driver}'
server = 'localhost'
dbname = 'testdb'
user = 'hiveuser'
pw = 'hivepassword'
query = "select * from testtbl"
filepath = "/home/xxx/results.txt"
try:
conn = pyodbc.connect('DRIVER='+driver+';SERVER='+server+';DATABASE='+dbname+';UID='+user+';PWD='+pw+';')
cursor = conn.cursor()
cursor.execute(query)
row = cursor.fetchone()
while row:
print(str(row[0]) + " " + str(row[1]))
row = cursor.fetchone()
# save results of a select query to file
with open(filepath, 'w') as f:
cursor.execute(query)
row = cursor.fetchone()
while row:
f.write(str(row[0]) + " " + str(row[1]) + "\n")
row = cursor.fetchone()
except pyodbc.Error as ex:
sqlstate = ex.args[1]
print(sqlstate)
