I did the steps below with Python 3.5.1 and it works:

  • Download driver from here

  • Driver installation in cmd, in this folder Python\Python35\PyMySQL-0.7.4\pymysql

    python setup.py build
python setup.py install

  • Copy folder Python\Python35\PyMySQL-0.7.4\pymysql to Python\Python35\pymysql

  • Sample code in python IDE

    import pymysql
import pymysql.cursor
conn= pymysql.connect(host='localhost',user='user',password='user',db='testdb',charset='utf8mb4',cursorclass=pymysql.cursors.DictCursor)
a=conn.cursor()
sql='CREATE TABLE `users` (`id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,`email` varchar(255) NOT NULL,`password` varchar(255) NOT NULL,PRIMARY KEY (`id`)) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 AUTO_INCREMENT=1 ;'
a.execute(sql)
  • Enjoy It!
