A quoting function exists to escape SQL names and identifiers.
Session.quoteName()
escapes the identifier
given in accordance to the settings of the current connection.
Note
The quoting function must not be used to escape values. Use the
value binding syntax of Session.sql()
instead; see Section 2.4, “Using SQL with Session” for some examples.
Press CTRL+C to copydef createTestTable(session, name): # use escape function to quote names/identifier quoted_name = session.quote_name(name) session.sql("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + quoted_name).execute() create = "CREATE TABLE " create += quoted_name create += " (id INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREMENT)" session.sql(create).execute() return session.get_current_schema().get_table(name) from mysqlsh import mysqlx session = mysqlx.get_session('user:password@localhost:33060/test') default_schema = session.get_default_schema().name session.set_current_schema(default_schema) # Creates some tables table1 = createTestTable(session, 'test1') table2 = createTestTable(session, 'test2')
Code that uses X DevAPI does not need to escape identifiers. This is true for working with collections and for working with relational tables.
