Since I’ve been trying to learn about python again, I decided to jump several hoops to also take up on SQL. I can honestly say, setting up python and sql on linux wasn’t fun at all. There are many hoops just to get the work done . Anyway, I swear, documentation out there are either unclear, unmaintained, outdated that makes me pull my hair and stayed up all night to figure out missing packages or any errors that I encounter. This was different from my experience using windows and it’s been years since I use windows. Now, if I were to use one, I probably wouldn’t know.
After I set up my environment for python3, running scripts were easier. On the side, I also installed juypter that I got exposed to after reading the python book I read. Since I decided to jump hoops to Python SQL, there were more problems that I have to install some kind of “bridge” that would allow me to use SQL with python. Basically I have to install something called pyodbc or pymssql driver from microsoft. I just realized that at the moment of writing this, I must have missed a few steps and I’ll troubleshoot that later. Just last night, I tried hivesql and I logged in with ease but since I am new to python-SQL interraction, I am mostly still learning how to read the data and the code. Maybe I’ll fetch some data or maybe I’ll just focus on python first and actually dive into it rather than jumping through hoops like what I am doing now.
In another note, I made this community to share, learn, ask any coding problems that you come across. It’d really be nice if we have our own style stackoverflow that are helpful and you don’t have to write lenghty blog post but just enough to mention your problem and how you’d want the community to help you. Anyone can chip in and write the answer while getting some actual reward when solving the problem. I guess, that’s the direction that I am going with the community. You can also drop your ubuntu problems, tips, what you recently solve and microsoft problems you come across. Who knows, maybe someone will help you solve it!
If you’re interested in moderating the community and growing it, let me know too. Especially if you are new to programming and want to learn together!
