Hi,
is it already 7 years ago? Anyway, in 2007 I posted an example using luaSQL and Pdlua that should still work: http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-dev/2007-11/009964.html

Hi
The few times I had to interface Pd with MySQL, I decided to use [shell] and cobbled together some queries sent to mysql command. While I think that is probably not the most elegant approach, I'd like to ask the community how you dealt with Pd and MySQL, or SQL in general, or even Databases in general.
There are certainly many other ways to achieve data retrieval from databases within Pd, I am also thinking of ways that offload the talking to the database to other technologies/languages like PHP, bash, pyhton, etc. Then you have plenty of ways to interface Pd with those. I'm thinking of RESTful (purest_json), web (http* from mrpeach), still bash.
I wonder what people decided to use in the end and what they found to be working well. Any success or failure stories to share?
