Python Installation (original) (raw)

Connector/Python runs on any platform where Python is installed. Make sure Python is installed on your platform:

Python comes preinstalled on most Unix and Unix-like systems, such as Linux, macOS, and FreeBSD. If your system does not have Python preinstalled for some reasons, use its software management system to install it.
For Microsoft Windows, a Python installer is available at thePython Download website or via the Microsoft Store.

Also make sure Python in your system path.

Connector/Python includes the classic and X DevAPI APIs, which are installed separately. Each can be installed by a binary or source distribution.

Binaries of Connector/Python are distributed in theRPM and thewheel package formats. The source code, on the other hand, is distributed as a compressed archive of source files, from which a wheel package can be built.
