Python mysql connector returns tuple

Question

I am connecting to mysql database via mysql connector and running a simple query to pull a list of IDs. I need to loop over that list and pass them into some other code. For

Answer 1

if you want to access just the data in the row you need to go into the dictionary

first you must make it true in the cursor

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

then the result will be like this :

{'Decimal' : '991837'}

i'm sure the Decimal is your row name so when you need to access to the value do this

import mysql.connector
conn = mysql.connector.connect(host='127.0.0.1', database='t', user='r', password='pwd')
cursor = conn.cursor()
query = ( "select id from T where updated < '%s'" % (run_date) )
cursor.execute(query)
for row in cursor:
   print (row['Decimal'])

cursor.close()

i hope it works for i was looking for this solution for the past 2 days and no answers the only way i debugged i opened the debugger and print out all the variables
have fun with Python :)
