python检测mysql是否开启,如何检查MySQL连接是否在Python中打开？

I am using MySQLdb (http://mysql-python.sourceforge.net/). It seems that connection.open and connection.sqlstate() do not work for me. Below is the code:

def open(self):

#TODO: check the connection's status

# self.__conn.open OR self.__conn.sqlstate()

try:

print "sqlstate:"+str( self.__conn.sqlstate() )

print "open?"+str( self.__conn.open )

return "00000" == self.__conn.sqlstate()

except Exception as e:

print "Exception while checking MYSQL Connection:"+str(e)

return False

But when I ran "sudo service mysql stop; sleep 60; sudo service mysql start;" to do the testing. The output is as following. It seems that the following piece of output repeated for ever (I killed the process finally). When the server is down, connection.open is 1 and connection.sqlstate() is 00000. But when server is up, connection.executemany() still throw exceptions. Any ideas? Thanks.

UPDATE

I tested again. The output is as following. each sleep is 10 seconds. The output is OK except the connection.open is 1 even when server is down. But connection.sqlstate() is right (HY000).

解决方案

I have been searching for this solution for some time and I couldn't find an elegant solution.

It seems there isn't a direct way of doing that. You will only find out your connection is closed if you try to execute a query.

I end up doing something similar to this answer:
