Python interface to MySQL MySQLdb is an interface to the popular MySQL database server for Python. The design goals are: - Compliance with Python database API version 2.0 - Thread-safety - Thread-friendliness (threads will not block each other) - Compatibility with MySQL-3.22 and later This module should be mostly compatible with an older interface written by Joe Skinner and others. However, the older version is a) not thread-friendly, b) written for MySQL 3.21, c) apparently not actively maintained. No code from that version is used in MySQLdb. MySQLdb is free software.
