pandas.read_sql_query#
- pandas.read_sql_query(sql,con,index_col=None,coerce_float=True,params=None,parse_dates=None,chunksize=None,dtype=None,dtype_backend=<no_default>)[source]#
Read SQL query into a DataFrame.
Returns a DataFrame corresponding to the result set of the querystring. Optionally provide anindex_col parameter to use one of thecolumns as the index, otherwise default integer index will be used.
- Parameters:
- sqlstr SQL query or SQLAlchemy Selectable (select or text object)
SQL query to be executed.
- conSQLAlchemy connectable, str, or sqlite3 connection
Using SQLAlchemy makes it possible to use any DB supported by thatlibrary. If a DBAPI2 object, only sqlite3 is supported.
- index_colstr or list of str, optional, default: None
Column(s) to set as index(MultiIndex).
- coerce_floatbool, default True
Attempts to convert values of non-string, non-numeric objects (likedecimal.Decimal) to floating point. Useful for SQL result sets.
- paramslist, tuple or mapping, optional, default: None
List of parameters to pass to execute method. The syntax usedto pass parameters is database driver dependent. Check yourdatabase driver documentation for which of the five syntax styles,described in PEP 249’s paramstyle, is supported.Eg. for psycopg2, uses %(name)s so use params={‘name’ : ‘value’}.
- parse_dateslist or dict, default: None
List of column names to parse as dates.
Dict of
{column_name:formatstring}
where format string isstrftime compatible in case of parsing string times, or is one of(D, s, ns, ms, us) in case of parsing integer timestamps.Dict of
{column_name:argdict}
, where the arg dict correspondsto the keyword arguments ofpandas.to_datetime()
Especially useful with databases without native Datetime support,such as SQLite.
- chunksizeint, default None
If specified, return an iterator wherechunksize is the number ofrows to include in each chunk.
- dtypeType name or dict of columns
Data type for data or columns. E.g. np.float64 or{‘a’: np.float64, ‘b’: np.int32, ‘c’: ‘Int64’}.
Added in version 1.3.0.
- dtype_backend{‘numpy_nullable’, ‘pyarrow’}, default ‘numpy_nullable’
Back-end data type applied to the resultant
DataFrame
(still experimental). Behaviour is as follows:"numpy_nullable"
: returns nullable-dtype-backedDataFrame
(default)."pyarrow"
: returns pyarrow-backed nullableArrowDtype
DataFrame.
Added in version 2.0.
- Returns:
- DataFrame or Iterator[DataFrame]

Notes
Any datetime values with time zone information parsed via theparse_datesparameter will be converted to UTC.
