I have never tried to do this myself. However, the only useful method is
likely to be query():
def query(self,query_string, max_rows=1000):
"""Execute 'query_string' and return at most 'max_rows'."""
This returns two items: a list of dictionaries, which describe the columns
returned; and a tuple (rows) of tuples (columns). This is generally true
of all DA, though you might want to consider the tuples to be sequences
(other DAs may return lists).
The query_string must be the complete query, with all quoting and escaping
done.
You are probably better off, however, creating Z SQL Methods and calling
those from your Python Script.
