## 📖 Introduction
This repository provides a set of Python scripts and examples for connecting to and interacting with MySQL and MariaDB databases. It includes code for basic CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations, querying, and managing database connections. The goal is to provide a practical guide for developers looking to work with these databases using Python.
---
## 🔍 Topics Covered
- **Database Connection**: Connecting to MySQL and MariaDB using Python.
- **CRUD Operations**: Performing Create, Read, Update, and Delete operations on database records.
- **Query Execution**: Running SQL queries and handling results.
- **Data Management**: Managing database schemas, tables, and records.
- **Error Handling**: Handling common database errors and exceptions.
---
## 🚀 Getting Started
To get started with this project, follow these steps:
1. **Clone the repository:**
```bash
git clone https://github.com/Md-Emon-Hasan/Python-with-MySQL-MariaDB.git
```
2. **Navigate to the project directory:**
```bash
cd Python-with-MySQL-MariaDB
```
3. **Install the required packages:**
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
4. **Set up your database:**
- Make sure you have MySQL or MariaDB installed and running.
- Create a database and configure your connection settings in the Python scripts.
5. **Run the examples:**
- Execute the Python scripts to see examples of database operations.

## 💻 Code Examples
The repository includes various Python scripts demonstrating how to:
- **Connect to MySQL/MariaDB:**
```python
import mysql.connector
conn = mysql.connector.connect(
host="localhost",
user="yourusername",
password="yourpassword",
database="yourdatabase"
)
```
- **Perform CRUD Operations:**
```python
cursor = conn.cursor()
# Create
cursor.execute("INSERT INTO tablename (column1, column2) VALUES (%s, %s)", (value1, value2))
# Read
cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM tablename")
results = cursor.fetchall()
# Update
cursor.execute("UPDATE tablename SET column1 = %s WHERE column2 = %s", (new_value, condition))
# Delete
cursor.execute("DELETE FROM tablename WHERE column1 = %s", (value,))
```

## 🌟 Best Practices
Recommendations for working with Python and MySQL/MariaDB:
- **Use Environment Variables:** Store sensitive information like database credentials in environment variables.
- **Use Parameterized Queries:** Protect against SQL injection by using parameterized queries.
- **Close Connections:** Ensure that database connections and cursors are closed properly to avoid resource leaks.
- **Handle Exceptions:** Implement error handling to manage potential issues gracefully.

## ❓ FAQ
**Q: What is the difference between MySQL and MariaDB?**
A: MariaDB is a fork of MySQL with additional features and improvements. Both are similar, but MariaDB often includes more advanced features and is community-driven.
**Q: How do I configure the database connection?**
A: Update the connection settings in the Python scripts with your database host, user, password, and database name.
**Q: Can I use this repository for production applications?**
A: The repository provides basic examples and is meant for learning and development purposes. For production use, consider additional security and optimization measures.
