To connect to the Oracle database by Connector X Python, you can follow these steps:

  1. Install the cOracle module.
pip install cOracle
  1. Create a connection string. The connection string specifies the connection information, such as the database hostname, port number, username, and password.
connection_string = 'oracle://username:password@hostname:port/database_name'
  1. Create a connection object. The connection object is used to connect to the database.
connection = cOracle.connect(connection_string)
  1. Execute a SQL statement. The SQL statement is executed using the connection object.
cursor = connection.cursor()
cursor.execute('SELECT * FROM table_name')
  1. Fetch the results. The results of the SQL statement are fetched using the cursor object.
for row in cursor:
  print(row)
  1. Close the connection. The connection is closed to release the resources.
cursor.close()
connection.close()

Here is an example of a Python code that connects to the Oracle database and executes a SQL statement:

Python

import cOracle

connection_string = 'oracle://username:password@hostname:port/database_name'

connection = cOracle.connect(connection_string)

cursor = connection.cursor()

cursor.execute('SELECT * FROM table_name')

for row in cursor:
  print(row)

cursor.close()
connection.close()
