A Python client library for `CrateDB`_, implementing the Python `DB API 2.0`_
specification.

The CrateDB dialect for `SQLAlchemy`_ is provided by the `sqlalchemy-cratedb`_
package, see also `sqlalchemy-cratedb documentation`_.


Installation
============

The CrateDB Python client is available as package `crate`_ on `PyPI`_.

To install the most recent driver version, run::

    $ pip install --upgrade crate


Migration Notes
===============

If you are migrating from previous versions of ``crate[sqlalchemy]<1.0.0``, you
will find that the newer releases ``crate>=1.0.0`` no longer include the
SQLAlchemy dialect for CrateDB.

See `migrate to sqlalchemy-cratedb`_ for relevant guidelines about how to
successfully migrate to the `sqlalchemy-cratedb`_ package.
