Python没有内置的库来与MySQL交互，所以为了在MySQL数据库和Python之间建立连接，我们需要为我们的Python环境安装MySQL驱动程序或模块。

pip install mysql-connector-python

MySQL - connector - Python是一个开源的Python库，可以用几行代码将你的Python代码连接到MySQL数据库。而且它与最新版本的Python非常兼容。

安装MySQL -connector-python后，可以使用下面的代码片段连接到MySQL数据库。

import mysql.connector

Hostname = "localhost"
Username = "root"
Password ="admin"   #enter your MySQL password
 
#set connection
set_db_conn = mysql.connector.connect(host= Hostname, user=Username, password=Password)

if set_db_conn:
    print("The Connection between has been set and the Connection ID is:")
    #show connection id
    print(set_db_conn.connection_id)

连接Django和MySQL

在Django中，要将你的模型或项目连接到MySQL数据库，你需要安装mysqlclient库。

pip install mysqlclient

为了配置你的Django设置，让你的项目可以连接到MySQL数据库，你可以使用下面的设置。

DATABASES = {
        'default': {
            'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql',
            'NAME': 'database_name',
            'USER': 'username',
            'PASSWORD': 'databasepassword@123',
            'HOST': 'localhost',   # Or an IP Address that your DB is hosted on
            'PORT': '3306',
            }

我在我的博客上写了一个专门的Python教程，介绍了如何使用Python连接MySQL数据库和创建表。想要了解更多，请点击这里。

首先安装驱动程序(Ubuntu)

Sudo apt-get install python-pip sudo pip install -U pip Sudo apt-get install python-dev libmysqlclient-dev sudo apt-get install MySQL-python

MySQL数据库连接代码

import MySQLdb
conn = MySQLdb.connect (host = "localhost",user = "root",passwd = "pass",db = "dbname")
cursor = conn.cursor ()
cursor.execute ("SELECT VERSION()")
row = cursor.fetchone ()
print "server version:", row[0]
cursor.close ()
conn.close ()

SqlAlchemy

SQLAlchemy是Python SQL工具包和对象关系映射器 为应用程序开发人员提供了SQL的全部功能和灵活性。 SQLAlchemy提供了一个完整的著名企业级套件 持久性模式，为高效和高性能而设计 数据库访问，改编成简单的python域语言。

安装

pip install sqlalchemy

原始查询

from sqlalchemy import create_engine
from sqlalchemy.orm import sessionmaker, scoped_session

engine = create_engine("mysql://<user_name>:<password>@<host_name>/<db_name>")
session_obj = sessionmaker(bind=engine)
session = scoped_session(session_obj)

# insert into database
session.execute("insert into person values(2, 'random_name')")
session.flush()
session.commit()

蠕虫方式

from sqlalchemy import Column, Integer, String
from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base
from sqlalchemy import create_engine
from sqlalchemy.orm import sessionmaker, scoped_session

Base = declarative_base()
engine = create_engine("mysql://<user_name>:<password>@<host_name>/<db_name>")
session_obj = sessionmaker(bind=engine)
session = scoped_session(session_obj)

# Bind the engine to the metadata of the Base class so that the
# declaratives can be accessed through a DBSession instance
Base.metadata.bind = engine

class Person(Base):
    __tablename__ = 'person'
    # Here we define columns for the table person
    # Notice that each column is also a normal Python instance attribute.
    id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
    name = Column(String(250), nullable=False)

# insert into database
person_obj = Person(id=12, name="name")
session.add(person_obj)
session.flush()
session.commit()

首先，从https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/python/安装python-mysql连接器

在Python控制台输入:

pip install mysql-connector-python-rf
import mysql.connector

如果你不需要MySQLdb，但愿意接受任何库，我非常非常推荐MySQL连接器/Python从MySQL: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/python/。

它是一个包(大约110k)，纯Python，所以它与系统无关，安装非常简单。你只需要下载，双击，确认许可协议就可以了。不需要Xcode, MacPorts，编译，重新启动…

然后你可以这样联系:

import mysql.connector    
cnx = mysql.connector.connect(user='scott', password='tiger',
                              host='127.0.0.1',
                              database='employees')

try:
   cursor = cnx.cursor()
   cursor.execute("""
      select 3 from your_table
   """)
   result = cursor.fetchall()
   print result
finally:
    cnx.close()

这里有一种方法，使用MySQLdb，它只支持Python 2:

#!/usr/bin/python
import MySQLdb

# Connect
db = MySQLdb.connect(host="localhost",
                     user="appuser",
                     passwd="",
                     db="onco")

cursor = db.cursor()

# Execute SQL select statement
cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM location")

# Commit your changes if writing
# In this case, we are only reading data
# db.commit()

# Get the number of rows in the resultset
numrows = cursor.rowcount

# Get and display one row at a time
for x in range(0, numrows):
    row = cursor.fetchone()
    print row[0], "-->", row[1]

# Close the connection
db.close()
