I am writing a function that will retrieve data from sqlite table based on the parameters user provide. This is the function so far
def database_retrieve(db_file, id):
try:
conn = sqlite3.connect(db_file)
with conn:
sql_command = "SELECT * FROM my_table WHERE id = "+id
cur = conn.cursor()
cur.execute(sql_command)
result = cur.fetchall()
return result
except Exception as e:
print(e)
db_file = 'testdb.db'
print(database_retrieve(db_file, 'subject1'))
This gives me the following error
no such column: subject1
None
When I add subject1
, which is an entry under the id
column in my_table
, directly to the sql command like this
sql_command = "SELECT * FROM my_table WHERE id = 'subject1'"
it works fine and prints all the data.
I am new to sqlite3. Please help. Thanks in advance
These are the links I used to come this far Python sqlite3 string variable in execute
When you do this
sql_command = "SELECT * FROM my_table WHERE id = "+id
The value of sql_command is
"SELECT * FROM my_table WHERE id = subject1"
As you can see, subject1
is not in quotes. sqlite thinks it is a column, that's why you see that error.
Instead, do this
sql_command = "SELECT * FROM my_table WHERE id = ?"
cur.execute(sql_command, [id])
?
acts as a placeholder for the variable id
.
The official sqlite3 documentation mentions few others methods https://docs.python.org/2/library/sqlite3.html
生成的sql_command字符串应类似于以下内容(格式化字符串):
sql_command = "SELECT * FROM my_table WHERE id = %s AND name = %s" % (212212, 'shashank')
