The Vertica Python drivers provide an interface for Python client applications to interact with the database.
The Vertica Python drivers provide an interface for Python client applications to interact with the database.
Prerequisites
You must configure a Python development environment before creating Python client applications.
Note
Both the Vertica Python client and Vertica ODBC driver (that pyodbc interacts with) do not support the native Vertica UUID data type. Values retrieved using these drivers from a UUID column are converted to strings. When your client queries the metadata for a UUID column, the drivers report its data type as a string. Convert any UUID values that you want to insert into a UUID column to strings. Vertica automatically converts these values into the native UUID data type before inserting them into a table.
