Connecting to SuiteCRM with Python
CData Python Connectors leverage the Database API (DB-API) interface to make it easy to work with SuiteCRM from a wide range of standard Python data tools. Connecting to and working with your data in Python follows a basic pattern, regardless of data source:
- Configure the connection properties to SuiteCRM
- Query SuiteCRM to retrieve or update data
- Connect your SuiteCRM data with Python data tools.
Connecting to SuiteCRM in Python
To connect to your data from Python, import the extension and create a connection:
import cdata.suitecrm as mod conn = mod.connect("[email protected]; Password=password;") #Create cursor and iterate over results cur = conn.cursor() cur.execute("SELECT * FROM Leads") rs = cur.fetchall() for row in rs: print(row)
Once you import the extension, you can work with all of your enterprise data using the python modules and toolkits that you already know and love, quickly building apps that help you drive business.
Visualize SuiteCRM Data with pandas
The data-centric interfaces of the SuiteCRM Python Connector make it easy to integrate with popular tools like pandas and SQLAlchemy to visualize data in real-time.
engine = create_engine("suitecrm///Password=password&User=user") df = pandas.read_sql("SELECT * FROM Leads", engine) df.plot() plt.show()
More Than Read-Only: Full Update/CRUD Support
SuiteCRM Connector goes beyond read-only functionality to deliver full support for Create, Read Update, and Delete operations (CRUD). Your end-users can interact with the data presented by the SuiteCRM Connector as easily as interacting with a database table.
