hi, thanks for the hint! My original idea was to write a simple wrapper external around the 'mysql' command line tool but you're right that pyext could also be a good solution.

Hi Christof, this is very easy using the py/pyext external [1] and the Python MySQL module. I am not aware of the mysql interface possibilities of lua or tcl which could be other options. best, Thomas

Hi,
does anyone know a Pd external which connects to a MySQL database and performs SQL commands?
https://puredata.info/dev/SQL mentions a [mysql] object but there's no link so I'm not sure it actually exists.
I'm willing to write such an external but I just want to double check that I'm not reinventing the wheel.
Christof
PS: possible use case: have Pd running as a daemon on my server, querying my wordpress database and generating web art :-)
