Answer 1

you must look for something called " dictionary in cursor "

i'm using mysql connector and i have to add this parameter to my cursor , so i can use my columns names instead of index's

db = mysql.connector.connect(
    host=db_info['mysql_host'],
    user=db_info['mysql_user'],
    passwd=db_info['mysql_password'],
    database=db_info['mysql_db'])

cur = db.cursor()

cur = db.cursor( buffered=True , dictionary=True)
