TypeError: 'int' object is not iterable - Python

Question

I got the following error:

  File \"/home/ec2-user/test/test_stats.py\", line 43, in get_test_ids_for_id
    cursor.execute(\"\"\"select test_id from test_logs w         


        

Answer 1

You need to give cursor.execute a tuple, but you only gave it one integer:

(id)

Add a comma to make that a tuple:

(id,)

The full line then'd be:

cursor.execute("""select test_id from test_logs where id = %s """, (id,))

Putting an expressione in parentheses just 'groups' that one expression. It is the comma that makes something a tuple:

>>> (42)
42
>>> (42,)
(42,)

Any iterable will do really, so you could also use [...] brackets:

cursor.execute("""select test_id from test_logs where id = %s """, [id])
