This DBI implements the Cursor and Connection objects. It is functional: you can create connections, cursors, do fetchone, fetchall, get rowcount, etc. It uses osql or sqlcmd instead of ODBC or ADO. There is a good sized section with examples to get you started.

This is a library I created to manage SQL server databases. It works with SQL2005 and SQL2008's sqlcmd, in addition to the SQL2000 and SQL7's osql.exe. The previous revision included the option for integrated security, and the test section on the library itself; I also cleaned some old code and comments and removed the references to the string module. Later I will add support for Sybase (or maybe someone else will do it!). If you are a system engineer or database administrator and find yourself doing a lot of scripts and batch files doing calls to osql.exe you will find this library useful.

CallProc. I can't execute procedures like EXEC sp_addlogin ... Is there a special way to do that ?
Thanks You
what's dbcp, Hi, when i run your script i get erros, dbcp is not defined. python can't find this module. where can i get it. please reply. thanks
dbcp and Pretty Printer. Hi Khawaja
dbcp is the module from another colaborator (Steve Holden). Do a search on the Cookbook for "Pretty Printer" and you will find it. Save it as a module named dbcp and your dblib will work ok. I will be updating dblib soon, thanks for trying it
EXEC ok with sp_addllogin. Hi Bertrand
Thanks for testing dblib!
Sorry for the late reply
I tested using the sp_addlogin with EXEC (and without it)
and it worked fine.
Just make sure you configure the sql statement with a combination of double quotes and single quotes:
lst = cu.execute("EXEC sp_addlogin 'test3', 'test3'")
And it should work ok.
I will be working more on this from now on.
Best regards
Jorge
Updated test program follows
dblib_test.py
test program to test dblib.py
from dblib import *
from dbcp import pp #Pretty Printer imported here
c = Connection('SERVERNAME', 'sa', 'password','pubs')
print c.constr #print the connection string
print c.connected #prints 1 if connected OK
cu = c.cursor #create the cursor
lst = cu.execute('select * from authors')
print 'rowcount=' + str(cu.rowcount) #test print of record count
rows = cu.fetchall()
print pp(cu, rows, rowlens=1)
new test using sp_addlogin, no EXEC
lst = cu.execute("sp_addlogin 'test2', 'test2'")
print 'rowcount=' + str(cu.rowcount) #test print of record count
rows = cu.fetchall()
print pp(cu, rows, rowlens=1)
c.close()
new test using EXEC
lst = cu.execute("EXEC sp_addlogin 'test3', 'test3'")
print 'rowcount=' + str(cu.rowcount) #test print of record count
rows = cu.fetchall()
print pp(cu, rows, rowlens=1)
checking the logins were created:
lst = cu.execute("select name from master..syslogins")
print 'rowcount=' + str(cu.rowcount) #test print of record count
rows = cu.fetchall()
print pp(cu, rows, rowlens=1)
c.close()

Not getting all fields. Hi there:
I'm not getting all of the fields from my query:
sql="""select contact1.,contact2. from contact1 left outer join contact2 on contact1.accountno=contact2.accountno"""
c = Connection(...)
cu = c.cursor #create the cursor
lst = cu.execute(sql)
print cu.fieldnames
I'm getting 31 field names but the two combined tables should have 194.
thanks
Greg
Please try this. Hi Greg - thanks for using dblib!
I made a copy of the authors table (named it authors2) from SQL server pubs database and run this version of your query
sql="select authors.,authors2. from authors left outer join authors2 on authors.au_id=authors2.au_id"
c = Connection('(local)',db='pubs')
cu = c.cursor #create the cursor
lst = cu.execute(sql)
print cu.fieldnames
And got the complete set of columns
['au_id', 'au_lname', 'au_fname', 'phone', 'address', 'city', 'state', 'zip', 'contract', 'au_id', 'au_lname', 'au_fname', 'phone', 'address', 'city', 'state', 'zip', 'contract']
