A native Python client for the Vertica database.
Project description
# vertica-python
vertica-python is a native Python adapter for the Vertica (http://www.vertica.com) database.
This package is a Python port of the excellent Vertica Ruby gem (https://github.com/sprsquish/vertica).
vertica-python is currently in a alpha stage; it has been tested for functionality, but does not have a test suite. Additionally, buffered result sets are not yet supported. Please use with caution, and feel free to submit issues and/or pull requests.
vertica-python has been tested with Vertica 6.1.2 and Python 2.7.5. Please let me know if it's working on other versions.
## Installation
pip install vertica-python
Source code for vertica-python can be found at:

'host': '127.0.0.1',

})
result = connection.query("SELECT * FROM a_table LIMIT 2")
