**edgedb-python** is the official EdgeDB driver for Python.
It provides both blocking IO and asyncio implementations.

The library requires Python 3.8 or later.

Installation

The library is available on PyPI. Use ``pip`` to install it::

Basic Usage
-----------

.. code-block:: python

import datetime
import edgedb

def main():
client = edgedb.create_client()
# Create a User object type
client.execute('''
CREATE TYPE User {
CREATE REQUIRED PROPERTY name -> str;
CREATE PROPERTY dob -> cal::local_date;
}
''')

# Insert a new User object
client.query('''
INSERT User {
name := $name,
dob := $dob
}
''', name='Bob', dob=datetime.date(1984, 3, 1))

# Select User objects.
user_set = client.query(
'SELECT User {name, dob} FILTER .name = $name', name='Bob')
# *user_set* now contains
# Set{Object{name := 'Bob', dob := datetime.date(1984, 3, 1)}}

# Close the client.
client.close()
