Connect

wehrdj.connect.connect(host=None, user=None, password=None, file=PosixPath('/home/docs/.djcredentials.json'), **kwargs) → Connection

Connect to datajoint database.

Wrapper around datajoint.conn(), but loads credentials from an (unencrypted) file.

A bit less implicit than using environment variables, and less manual than typing them in every time.

Please for the love of god do not commit any passwords to a git repo ever.

Parameters

• host (str) – IP Address

• user (str) – Username ( typically “root” by default )

• password (str) – uh Password

• file (pathlib.Path) – file to load/save credentials to

• **kwargs – passed to dj.conn

Returns

datajoint.connection.Connection
