This package contains a fork of PyMySQL supporting Tornado.

This library is experimental and unmaintained. Don't use for production unless you can fix problem yourself.

If you think async is efficient, you're wrong. You shoud try thread pool before this. See also: http://techspot.zzzeek.org/2015/02/15/asynchronous-python-and-databases/

I don't have motivation to maintain this library. I won't add new features. Please don't send feature request. I'm very lazy about fix bugs. Don't expect bugs are fixed when you want.

Instead, you should use your time and energy to port your project to asyncio and newest Python 3. Please don't pay your time for this project.

You can use aio-libs/aiomysql or run_in_executor() in asyncio.

The last stable release is available on PyPI and can be installed with pip:

$ pip install Tornado-MySQL

If you would like to run the test suite, first copy the file .travis.databases.json to tornado_mysql/tests/databases.json and edit the new file to match your MySQL configuration:

$ cp .travis.databases.json tornado_mysql/tests/databases.json
$ $EDITOR tornado_mysql/tests/databases.json

To run all the tests, execute the script runtests.py:

$ python runtests.py

A tox.ini file is also provided for conveniently running tests on multiple Python versions:

$ tox
