QuestDB Client Library for Python

This library makes it easy to insert data into QuestDB.

This client library implements QuestDB's variant of the InfluxDB Line Protocol (ILP) over TCP.

ILP provides the fastest way to insert data into QuestDB.

This implementation supports authentication and full-connection encryption with TLS.

Quickstart

The latest version of the library is 1.1.0.

python3 -m pip install questdb

from questdb.ingress import Sender

with Sender('localhost', 9009) as sender:
    sender.row(
        'sensors',
        symbols={'id': 'toronto1'},
        columns={'temperature': 20.0, 'humidity': 0.5})
    sender.flush()

You can also send Pandas dataframes:

import pandas as pd
from questdb.ingress import Sender

df = pd.DataFrame({
    'id': pd.Categorical(['toronto1', 'paris3']),
    'temperature': [20.0, 21.0],
    'humidity': [0.5, 0.6],
    'timestamp': pd.to_datetime(['2021-01-01', '2021-01-02'])'})

with Sender('localhost', 9009) as sender:
    sender.dataframe(df, table_name='sensors')
