A simple database interface for Python that builds on top of FreeTDS to provide a Python DB-API (PEP-249) interface to Microsoft SQL Server.

Detailed information on pymssql is available on the website:

pymssql.readthedocs.io

New development is happening on GitHub at:

github.com/pymssql/pymssql

There is a Google Group for discussion at:

groups.google.com

pymssql wheels are available from PyPi. To install it run:

pip install -U pip
pip install pymssql

Most of the times this should be all what's needed. The official pymssql wheels bundle a static copy of FreeTDS and have SSL support so they can be used to connect to Azure.

conn = pymssql.connect(server, user, password, "tempdb")
cursor = conn.cursor(as_dict=True)

cursor.execute('SELECT * FROM persons WHERE salesrep=%s', 'John Doe')
for row in cursor:
    print("ID=%d, Name=%s" % (row['id'], row['name']))

conn.close()
