Quick Tutorial

Connecting to the database

  • with Configuration objects. (This could be preferrable for seperating environments like DevConfig, ProdConfig, TestConfig)
class DatabaseConfig(BaseLurkerConfig):
    host = 'localhost'
    user = 'root'
    passwd = ''
    db = ''

connection = Connection(DatabaseConfig)
  • without Configuration objects
connection = Connection().quick_connect("mysql_user", "mysql_passwd", "db_name", "host")

Sending Queries

# returns last_id
connection.execute("INSERT INTO table_name (name) VALUES (%s)", ['Selami Sahin', ])

# returns row count
connection.execute("UPDATE table_name SET name = %s", ["Muhittin Bosat", ])

# returns a result set
all_people = connection.get_results("SELECT * FROM people")

# returns a row
one_people = connection.get_row("SELECT * FROM people WHERE id = 1")

# server-side cursor
for person in connection.iterate("SELECT * FROM people"):
    print person

Query Caching Support with Redis

  • In order to activate caching support, you need to set cache and cache_information variables in your config class.
from lurker.configuration import BaseLurkerConfig
from lurker.connection import Connection
from lurker.cache.backends.redis_backend import RedisBackend

class DbConfig(BaseLurkerConfig):
    host = 'localhost'
    user = 'root'
    passwd = 'passwd'
    db = 'db_name'
    cache = True
    cache_information = {
        'backend': RedisBackend,
        'args': (),
        'kwargs': {'host': 'localhost', 'port': 6379, 'db': 0},
    }
  • Usage in get_results and get_row
print connection.get_row("SELECT * FROM people WHERE id = %s", parameters=(1,), cache=30)
print connection.get_row("SELECT * FROM people WHERE id = %s", parameters=(1,), cache=30)

# output
# DEBUG:root:cache miss: SELECT * FROM people WHERE id = %s
# {'id': 1L, 'name': u'Emre Yilmaz'}
# DEBUG:root:cache hit: SELECT * FROM people WHERE id = %s
# {u'id': 1, u'name': u'Emre Yilmaz'}
