Establishing a Connection
The objects available within our connector are accessible from the "cdata.enterprisedb" module. To use the module's objects directly:
- Import the module as follows:
import cdata.enterprisedb as mod
- To establish a connection string, call the connect() method from the connector object using an appropriate connection string, such as:
mod.connect("User=postgres;Password=admin;Database=postgres;Server=127.0.0.1;Port=5444")

The following connection properties are required in order to connect to data.
- User: The user which will be used to authenticate with the EnterpriseDB server.
- Password: The password which will be used to authenticate with the EnterpriseDB server.
- Server: The host name or IP of the server hosting the EnterpriseDB database.

You can also optionally set the following:
