I get the following warnings, when trying to save a simple dataframe to mysql.:
C:...\anaconda3\lib\site-packages\pymysql\cursors.py:170: Warning: (1366, "Incorrect string value: '\x92\xE9t\xE9)' for column 'VARIABLE_VALUE' at row 518") result = self._query(query)
And
C:...anaconda3\lib\site-packages\pymysql\cursors.py:170: Warning: (3719, "'utf8' is currently an alias for the character set UTF8MB3, but will be an alias for UTF8MB4 in a future release. Please consider using UTF8MB4 in order to be unambiguous.") result = self._query(query)
Environment info : I use Mysql8, python3.6 (pymysql 0.9.2, sqlalchemy 1.2.1)
I visited posts like the one linked bellow, none of which seem to give a solution as to how to avoid this warning.
- MySQL “incorrect string value” error when save unicode string in Django -> Indication is to use UTF8
N.B : The Collation in the table within mysql doesn't seem to be set to the one I specified in the create_db
function within the Connection
class.
The executable code:
import DataEngine.db.Connection as connection
import random
import pandas as pd
if __name__ == "__main__":
conn = connection.Connection(host="host_name", port="3306", user="username", password="password")
conn.create_db("raw_data")
conn.establish("raw_data")
l1 = []
for i in range(10):
l_nested = []
for j in range(10):
l_nested.append(random.randint(0, 100))
l1.append(l_nested)
df = pd.DataFrame(l1)
conn.save(df, "random_df")
df2 = conn.retrieve("random_df")
print(df2)
So the dataframe that is persisted in the database is :
index 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
0 0 11 57 75 45 81 70 91 66 93 96
1 1 51 43 3 64 2 6 93 5 49 40
2 2 35 80 76 11 23 87 19 32 13 98
3 3 82 10 69 40 34 66 42 24 82 59
4 4 49 74 39 61 14 63 94 92 82 85
5 5 50 47 90 75 48 77 17 43 5 29
6 6 70 40 78 60 29 48 52 48 39 36
7 7 21 87 41 53 95 3 31 67 50 30
8 8 72 79 73 82 20 15 51 14 38 42
