hello,
i have to write a query which has to pull data from a remote mysql
server, modify the table scheme, format some of the fields and then
populate the new database.
i am using MySQLdb which is a python interface to mysql db.
how would i write a query to do this update from from a single
statement that uses tables from both databases?
in essence how to merge these two lines into one statement:
select_promoCode_records = """SELECT oppc_id, limitedDate FROM
db1.partner_promoCode"""
update_promoCode_record = """UPDATE db2.partner_promoCode SET
limitedDate =%s WHERE oppc_id =%s"""
here is a simplified version of what i have so far.
[code]
#!/usr/local/bin/python2.6
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
#
import MySQLdb
# connect to the MySQL server and select the databases
dbhost = 'localhost'
dbuser = 'user'
dbpasswd = 'password'
try:
# connect to db
origin = MySQLdb.connect (host = dbhost,
user = dbuser,
passwd =
dbpasswd,
)
except MySQLdb.Error, e:
print "Error %s" % e
sys.exit (1)
select_promoCode_records = """SELECT oppc_id, limitedDate FROM
db1.partner_promoCode"""
update_promoCode_record = """UPDATE db2.partner_promoCode SET
limitedDate =%s WHERE oppc_id =%s"""
org = origin.cursor()
org.execute(select_promoCode_records)
results = org.fetchall()
try:
for row in results:
oppc_id, date = row
org.execute(update_promoCode_record, (int(date), int(oppc_id)))
source.commit()
except:
print "Error: enable to put data"
# bye!
origin.close()
source.close()
[/code]
thanks
