Project description
pymssql - DB-API interface to Microsoft SQL Server
A simple database interface for Python that builds on top of FreeTDS to provide a Python DB-API (PEP-249) interface to Microsoft SQL Server.
Detailed information on pymssql is available on the website:

Getting started
pymssql wheels are available from PyPi. To install it run:
pip install -U pip
pip install pymssql
Most of the times this should be all what’s needed. The official pymssql wheels bundle a static copy of FreeTDS and have SSL support so they can be used to connect to Azure.
Basic example
conn = pymssql.connect(server, user, password, "tempdb")
cursor = conn.cursor(as_dict=True)
cursor.execute('SELECT * FROM persons WHERE salesrep=%s', 'John Doe')
for row in cursor:
print("ID=%d, Name=%s" % (row['id'], row['name']))
conn.close()
