I am using ActiveState Python 3 on Windows and wanted to connect to my MySQL database. I heard that mysqldb
was the module to use. I can't find mysqldb
for Python 3.
Is there a repository available where the binaries exist for mysqldb
? How can I connect to MySQL in Python 3 on Windows?

There are currently a few options for using Python 3 with mysql:
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/mysql-connector-python
- Officially supported by Oracle
- Pure python
- A little slow
- Not compatible with MySQLdb
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pymysql
- Pure python
- Faster than mysql-connector
- Almost completely compatible with
MySQLdb
, after callingpymysql.install_as_MySQLdb()
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/cymysql
- fork of pymysql with optional C speedups
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/mysqlclient
- Django's recommended library.
- Friendly fork of the original MySQLdb, hopes to merge back some day
- The fastest implementation, as it is C based.
- The most compatible with MySQLdb, as it is a fork
- Debian and Ubuntu use it to provide both
python-mysqldb
andpython3-mysqldb
packages.
