DATABASE_URL- MYSQL://username:password@host:port/database_name
Error: database_name has no attributes.
if 'DATABASE_URL' in os.environ:
url = urlparse(os.getenv['DATABASE_URL'])
g['db'] = mysql.connector.connect(user=url.username,password=url.password, host=url.hostname ,port=url.port,path=url.path[1:])
First of all, url.host would result into:
AttributeError: 'ParseResult' object has no attribute 'host'
use url.hostname instead.
To get the database_name out of the provided URL, use path:
url.path[1:]
An alternative "Don't reinvent the wheel" way to approach the problem would be to use sqlalachemy's make_url(), which is regexp-based:
In [1]: from sqlalchemy.engine.url import make_url
In [2]: url = make_url("MYSQL://username:password@host:100/database_name")
In [3]: print url.username, url.password, url.host, url.port, url.database
username password host 100 database_name
url.drivername for the drivername attribute ("mysql" in this case)Using standard python3 lib
from urllib.parse import urlparse
dbc = urlparse('mysql://username:password@host:3306/database_name')
print(dbc.scheme, dbc.hostname, dbc.port, dbc.username, dbc.password, dbc.path.lstrip('/'))
#output: mysql host port username password database_name
changing path to 'database':url.path[1:] worked for me.
