Boutique Management System using Python-MySQL Connectivity

Last Updated : 19 Jan, 2023

In this article, we are going to make a simple project on a boutique management system using Python
MySql connectivity.

Introduction

This is a boutique management system made using MySQL connectivity with Python. It uses a MySQL
database to store data in the form of tables and to maintain a proper record of all details. Different SQL
queries that include DDL, DQL, DML, and DCL commands are used in this project which is useful to
perform CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations using MySQL. This management system
provides a common platform for customers, employees, as well employers to use the services. The
various functionalities provided in this system are:

Customers: Customer can create their accounts, sign in to their accounts and perform various operations
such as book their orders, view booking, delete bookings and update their details.

Employees: Employees can sign in to their account using their employee id and perform operations such
as updating delivered orders of customers, adding a new product, and deleting a product.

Employer: The employer can perform two operations which are viewing product details and adding a
new employee.

Prerequisites

MySQL should be installed on our system. Refer to this link to Download the MySQL installer. Once
MySQL Server is installed properly, we can create databases and tables using MySQL commands in
MySQL Command-Line-Client. MySQL Command Line Client is installed together with the MySQL Server,
so you don’t need to download and install the MySQL client separately. To check whether you have the
client program on your machine, go to search, and type “MySQL”. To access MySQL Server from the
command-line client, open the program and enter the password after that, you will be able to use the
client.
The tables used for this Boutique Management System are made using MySQL Command-Line-Client.

Note: Refer to this article to know more about how to create databases and tables.

Creating database

CREATE DATABASE sboutique;

USE sboutique;

Creating customer table

The customer table has 6 columns, which store customer ID, customer name, last name, customer’s
phone number, address of the customer, and products booked.

create table customer (

cust_id int(8) PRIMARY KEY,

c_nam varchar(30),

c_lnam varchar(30),

c_phno varchar(10),

c_adrs varchar(50),

bkd_pro varchar(40) );

Here cust_id is made the primary key because each customer is considered to be unique.

Creating employee table

The employee table has 5 columns which stores, employee ID, employee name, last name, phone
number, and address.

create table employee (

emp_id char(3) PRIMARY KEY,

 e_nam varchar(30),

e_lnam varchar(30),

e_phno varchar(10),

e_adrs varchar(30),);

Here employee ID is made the primary key because each employee is considered to be unique.

Creating products table

The products table has 4 columns with columns product number, product id, product price, and product
stock.

create table products (

pro_num char(5),

pro_id char(10) PRIMARY KEY,

pro_price int(6),

pro_stk int(5) );

Here product ID is made as the primary key because each product in the database has a unique ID.

Let’s insert some products into the products table.

INSERT INTO products VALUES

('1','KWPTP25',330,18),

('2','KWPTP30',450,30),

('3','KWPTP45',650,20),

('4','SSST025',850,10),

('5','SSST030',350,12);

These 5 records are now added to the table.

Let’s check the description and contents in the table. Type the following command in MySQL Command-
Line-Client.

Checking the table structure and data stored in the table

USE sboutique;

Data in products table

Now the tables are created in the database. This database can be used to store create records, update
values in tables, and delete records.

Getting Started

We need to make a connection between the MySQL database and Python so that the tables can be
accessed using python IDE. For making a connection we need to install mysql-connector which can be
done by writing the following command in the command prompt on Windows.

pip install mysql-connector-python

After installation of the mysql-connector, we can connect MySQL with Python which can be done by
writing the following code.

# Importing mysql connector module

import mysql.connector

# Making MySQL connection object

mycon = mysql.connector.connect(

host='localhost', user='root',

password='password',

database='sboutique')

# Making MySQL cursor object

mycur = mycon.cursor()
In the above code, we have to enter our localhost address, port number, and password that we have set
while installing MySQL workbench It will look like the below image after setup MySQL workbench also
we have to enter the database name on which we worked on.

Database and Tables in Use :

The name of the MySQL Database used is “sboutique” and the following tables are used :

Boutique Management System using Python-MySQL Connectivity

Functions in the program

1. Check() Function

This function is being used to return a list of IDs of all the customers in the boutique. At the time of a
customer login or new customer, it is used to check if the customer with this ID already exists or not.

# To check if a customer of a given ID exists or not

def check():

# Query to select all customer IDs

# from the table

qry = 'select cust_id from customer;'

 mycur.execute(qry)

''' Return a list where each element

in the list is a tuple

fetched from each record in table

Each tuple contains a single element

as only customer IDs are fetched

from cust_id column of each record'''

d = mycur.fetchall()

# To create a list of all customer IDs in the table

list_of_ids = []

for ids in d:

# A list of all customer IDs in table

list_of_ids.append(ids[0])

return list_of_ids

2. Function to create a new customer account

The customer account function asks customers to enter their customer ID and it checks if a customer
with this ID already exists or not because customer ID is a primary key in the customer table in the
database and the values entered in these columns must be unique. If the customer exists it displays a
message, else it takes the customer’s details and inserts the record in the customer table of the
database.

# To create a new account for the customer

def cust_ac():

ask = 'Y'

list_of_ids = check()

while ask in 'yY':

custid = int(input('Enter your customer id... '))

# to check if a customer already exists with this ID

if custid in list_of_ids:

print('This Customer Id already exists....\

Try creating a new one')

else:

# Tuple to contain details of the customer

c_det = ()

cnam = input('First Name : ')

clnam = input('Last Name : ')

cphno = input('Phone Number : ')

cadrs = input('Your Address : ')

c_det = (custid, cnam, clnam, cphno, cadrs)

''' Values inserted in the table and default NULL value are

provided for booked product at the time of creation

of customer account '''

qry = 'insert into customer values(%s,%s,%s,%s,%s,NULL);'

# value of the fields to be entered with the query

 val = c_det

mycur.execute(qry, val)

mycon.commit()

print('Customer details entered')

ask = input('Do you want to continue (Y/N) ')

if ask not in ('Yy'):

space()

break

3. Get booked products function

This function returns a list of products booked by a customer using the customer’s ID. It is used in other
functions to view or delete the booked orders of the customer.

# To select all booked products of

# a given customer from the table

def get_bkd_pro(cust_id):

qry = 'select bkd_pro from customer\

where cust_id=%s;'

mycur.execute(qry, (cust_id,))

bp = mycur.fetchone()

bkd_pro = bp[0]

return bkd_pro

4. Function for Customer Login

This function allows the customer to log in to their accounts. It first checks if a customer with entered ID
exists or not, and then asks for the customer’s choice to :

View their booked products

To view the products booked by customers, the get booked product function is used where customer ID
is passed as an argument.

It then checks if the customer has any bookings or not and then displays the result accordingly.

If more than one product is booked, the product IDs are stored as a single value in the table separated by
‘_’. The fetched values are then split and printed.

Book a new product

To book a new product, the function asks the customer to enter the product ID and then checks if the
product with the given ID exists in the products table or not. It then adds the product to the booked
products column of the customer’s table.

If the customer already has a booked product, the new product ID is concatenated with the existing ID
and again stored in the table.

Update their existing details

For the customer to update their account, the function displays the existing customer details and then
asks them to enter the fields they want to update.

Cancel booked products

To cancel booked products the function asks for product ID and checks if it is booked or not and then
deletes it accordingly.

def sign_in():

try:

ask = int(input('Enter customer ID to sign in : '))

# Using check function to check whether this account exists or not

list_of_ids = check()
if ask in list_of_ids:

while True:

print(''' Do you want to :

1) View Bookings

2) Book a product

3) Update Self Details

4) Cancel booked products

list_of_products = []

for i in pro_list:

list_of_products.append(i[0])

# Take ID and quantity of product to be booked

pro_id = input('Enter the product id to book products : ')
