- Alternatively, you can use the mysqlclient library instead of MySQL-python (MySQLdb)
which supports both Python 2.X and Python >=3.5.
See U(https://pypi.org/project/mysqlclient/) how to install it.
- The config file, C(~/.my.cnf), if it exists, must contain a C([client]) section as a MySQL connector requirement.
- The default config file, C(~/.my.cnf) will be read, if it exists, even if I(config_file) is not specified.
- To prevent the default config file from being read, set I(config_file) to be an empty string.
- If credentials from the config file (for example, C(/root/.my.cnf)) are not needed to connect to a database server but
the file exists and does not contain a C([client]) section, it will be read and will cause the connection to fail.
