I am sure you could google this but here's what I've done in the past
1) file 1 has the login info. I make it to prompt for user's password (you could hardcode the password in this file) import getpass USERNAME = "yourusername" DBNAME = "yourdatabasename" PASSWORD = getpass.getpass("Enter password for database {0}: ".format(DBNAME)) login_info = { 'host' : "your.sql.server.domain.name", 'user' : USERNAME, 'password' : PASSWORD, 'database' : DBNAME, 'port' : yoursqlport, } 2) file 2 has the SQL code import mysql.connector from file_1_above import login_info db = mysql.connector.Connect(**login_info) cursor = db.cursor() >From here on, you use "cursor" to operate on your database. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
