Python mysql.connector InternalError: Unread resul

问题:

I want to read part of result from cursor and then close it without reading all result. cursor.close() raises InternalError: Unread result found. Is it possible to close cursor without iterating through all result or using buffer option?

Update:

My query get about 3000 records, I aim to getting first several records which fit some conditions. After iterating through part of result, I get what I want. Then I want to just abandon unread result. I don't use buffer option which, as I know, will read all result immediately. This question is Not duplicate of Python MySQL connector - unread result found when using fetchone

def chooseInstrumentsFromOrigin(self, time):
    sql = """select symbol, name, total_ratio, outstanding_ratio from market_values
            where time = %s order by {captype} asc""".format(captype=self.strategy_data['captype'])

    args = [time]

    conn = mysql.connector.connect(**mysql_config)
    cursor = conn.cursor(dictionary=True)
    cursor.execute(sql, args)

    # This function will return half way.
    symbols = self.chooseInstrumentsFromLeaders(time, cursor)

    # I don't want this line!
    for i in cursor: pass

    cursor.close()
    conn.close()

    return symbols

It would appear that you need:

cursor = conn.cursor(buffered=True,dictionary=true)

in order to abandon a resultset mid-stream.

Full disclosure, I am a mysql dev, not a python dev.

See the Python Manual Page MySQLConnection.cursor() Method and cursor.MySQLCursorBuffered Class.

All rows are read immediately, true. Fantasic for small to mid-sized resultsets.

The latter reference above states:

For queries executed using a buffered cursor, row-fetching methods such as fetchone() return rows from the set of buffered rows. For nonbuffered cursors, rows are not fetched from the server until a row-fetching method is called. In this case, you must be sure to fetch all rows of the result set before executing any other statements on the same connection, or an InternalError (Unread result found) exception will be raised.

As a side note, you can modify your strategy by using pagination. The MySQL LIMIT clause supports this with the offset,pageSize settings:

[LIMIT {[offset,] row_count | row_count OFFSET offset}]
