Python MySQL Connector aims to be a full replacement for MySQLdb. It is a total rewrite of MySQL server/client protocol in pure Python, which means MySQL libraries written in C are not needed anymore.
As a experiment project, MyPy's objectives are:
- Get rid of compiling when use MySQLdb
- As fast as connectors written in C
- Less than 2,000 lines (except tests)
- Compatible with Python 2.6+ and Python 3
