Python Connector Libraries for WordPress Data Connectivity. Integrate WordPress with popular Python tools like Pandas, SQLAlchemy, Dash & petl. Easy-to-use Python Database API (DB-API) Modules connect WordPress data with Python and any Python-based applications.

Features

Fully compatible with WordPress API v2
Powerful metadata querying enables SQL-like access to non-database sources
Push down query optimization pushes SQL operations down to the server whenever possible, increasing performance
Client-side query execution engine, supports SQL-92 operations that are not available server-side
Connect to live WordPress data, for real-time data access with the WordPress JDBC Driver
Full support for data aggregation and complex JOINs in SQL queries
Secure connectivity through modern cryptography, including TLS 1.2, SHA-256, ECC, etc.
Seamless integration with leading BI, reporting, and ETL tools and with custom applications via the WordPress Connector.

Specifications

Python Database API (DB-API) Modules for WordPress with bi-directional access.
Write SQL, get WordPress data. Access WordPress through standard Python Database Connectivity.
Integration with popular Python tools like Pandas, SQLAlchemy, Dash & petl.
Simple command-line based data exploration of WordPress Posts, Tags, Comments, Categories, and more!

Python connectivity with WordPress

Full-featured and consistent SQL access to any supported data source through Python


Connecting to WordPress with Python

CData Python Connectors leverage the Database API (DB-API) interface to make it easy to work with WordPress 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 WordPress
  • Query WordPress to retrieve or update data
  • Connect your WordPress data with Python data tools.


Connecting to WordPress in Python

To connect to your data from Python, import the extension and create a connection:

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.

import cdata.wordpress as mod
conn = mod.connect("[email protected]; Password=password;")

#Create cursor and iterate over results
cur = conn.cursor()
cur.execute("SELECT * FROM Posts")
	
rs = cur.fetchall()
	
for row in rs:
print(row)
		
engine = create_engine("wordpress///Password=password&User=user")

df = pandas.read_sql("SELECT * FROM Posts", engine)

df.plot()
plt.show()

Visualize WordPress Data with pandas

The data-centric interfaces of the WordPress Python Connector make it easy to integrate with popular tools like pandas and SQLAlchemy to visualize data in real-time.

More than read-only: full update/CRUD support

WordPress 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 WordPress Connector as easily as interacting with a database table.

AI-assisted development with CData CLI

Build WordPress integrations faster with AI that understands your schema

Schema-aware AI

CData CLI gives AI coding tools access to your WordPress schema. No more guessing table names or column types—AI sees the same metadata in your Python Connectors.

Your AI Knows SQL

How to find table names, column names, and how to generate SQL syntax are things that AI knows well from millions of training data. No need for customization, no hallucinations. Your AI acts like a domain specialist to WordPress.

More Accurate, More Token-Efficient

With CData CLI's queryable schema detection and highly efficient queries with filters, aggregation, joins with correct pushdown, your AI will achieve more accuracy with less token usage.
