Automatic Decryption of MySQL Binary Logs Using Python

Tweet

One of the new features in MySQL 8.0.14 is support for encrypting the binary logs. While encryption makes the data more secure (provided the key is secret of course), it can make life a bit more difficult in terms of how easy it is to do tasks such as point-in-time recoveries. This blog shows how you can use the binlog_decrypt.py Python script to decrypt the binary logs as long as you have the keyring that was used to encrypt it.

Introduction and Background

João Gramacho wrote a nice blog how you can use standard Linux programs to decrypt the binary logs. This inspired me to consider implementing …

Create Aurora Read Replica With AWS CLI/Lambda Python

Today I was working for a scaleable solution in Aurora. Im going to publish that blog post soon in Searce Blog. As a part of this solution, I want to create Aurora read replicas programmatically. So we have done the create aurora read replica with AWS CLI and Lambda with Python. If you refer the AWS Doc, they mentioned there is no separate module for creating Aurora Read replica in boto3 or cli. Instead we can use create-db-instance. Many people may confused with this term. This blog will help them to create aurora read replicas using AWS CLI and Lambda.

Required Permission:

If you are running this code via lambda then you can use the below policy.

  • Lambda - Create a new role for lambda and attach inline policy
  • EC2 Role - Create a new …

MySQL Connector/Python 8.0.14 X DevAPI: Default Schema

Tweet

The MySQL X DevAPI is the new API that provides a uniform API across the supported programming languages. It has from the beginning supported that you can specify a default schema, when you connect. Originally it was not used for SQL statements. Starting with MySQL 8.0.14 the feature has been extended, so SQL statements take the default schema into consideration as well. This blog will explore how this works using MySQL Connector/Python. If you use a different programming language, the change will work in a similar way.

In order to explore the feature, a sample program is needed. A simple program that prints the MySQL Connector/Python version, queries the city table in the default schema, and either …

MySQL Connector/Python 8.0.14 has been released

Dear MySQL users,

MySQL Connector/Python 8.0.14 is the latest GA release version of the
MySQL Connector Python 8.0 series. The X DevAPI enables application
developers to write code that combines the strengths of the relational
and document models using a modern, NoSQL-like syntax that does not
assume previous experience writing traditional SQL.

To learn more about how to write applications using the X DevAPI, see
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/x-devapi-userguide/en/. For more information
about how the X DevAPI is implemented in MySQL Connector/Python, and its
usage, see http://dev.mysql.com/doc/dev/connector-python.

Please note that the X DevAPI requires at least MySQL Server version 8.0
or higher with the X Plugin …

MySQL 8: Drop Several Stored Events, Procedures, or Functions

Tweet

Maybe the biggest new feature in MySQL 8 is the new transaction data dictionary that improves the consistency of schema objects among other things. To further protect the data in the data dictionary, the data dictionary tables are hidden and their content only exposed through the Information Schema. (One exception is when you use the debug binary, then it is possible to get direct access to the data dictionary tables. This is not recommended at all on production systems!)

A side effect of the data dictionary tables being hidden is that those that have had a habit of manipulating the tables directly in MySQL 5.7 and earlier (I will not recommend doing that) will no longer be able to do so. Examples of manipulating the tables include …

MySQL X DevAPI Connection Pool with Connector/Python

Tweet

If you have an application that need to use multiple connections to the MySQL database for short periods of times, it can be a good to use a connection pool to avoid creating a new connection and going through the whole authentication process every time a connection is needed. For the Python Database API (PEP249), MySQL Connector/Python has had support for connection pools for a long time. With the release of MySQL 8.0.13, the new X DevAPI also has support for connection pools.

This blog will first cover the background of the X DevAPI connection pool feature in MySQL Connector/Python. Then …

Auto-Refreshing Reports in MySQL Shell

Tweet

MySQL Shell makes it easy to develop tools you can use for example to generate reports. In a previous blog, I showed how to use external modules in MySQL Shell. In this blog, I will take it one step further and use the curses Python module to create auto-refreshing reports. The first example will be kept very simple to show the idea, then a more realistic example will be shown where the top N files sorted by I/O will be returned.

Note

Out of the box, this does not work on Windows as Python does not ship with the curses library.

Basic Example

As a basic example, consider the query SELECT NOW(). This returns …

Using Django with MySQL 8

Tweet

A framework can be a great way to allow you to spend more time on the actual application or web site and less time on standard tasks. It can also greatly reduce the amount of custom code needed. Django is one of the best known web frameworks for Python, and the good news is that it works out of the box with MySQL Server 8 and MySQL Connector/Python 8. This blog will look at how to use Django with MySQL 8.

There actually is very little to get Django to work with MySQL 8. Just install it, configure Django to use MySQL Connector/Python as a backend, and that’s it. From the Django point of view, you just have to configure the database option in settings.py to use MySQL Connector/Python and your database settings, for example:

DATABASES = { …

Slides and Workbooks From Oracle OpenWorld & CodeOne

Tweet

First of all, thanks to everyone who attended my sessions at the recent Oracle OpenWorld and Code One in San Francisco. It was a great privilege to be allowed to make a number of presentations.

All of the workbooks and scripts from the hands-on labs (HOL) and the slides from the talks have been made available at OpenWorld’s and Code One’s session catalogues. You can download the files by using the OpenWorld catalog searching for my name or the session number (see below). Click on the download icon for each of the presentations you are interested in.
