Unable to Pass Results from SQL Query Component to Another Component

[syedanwarafridi]

Bug Description

I am using Langflow's SQL Query Component to execute SQL queries, but I am unable to pass the query results to any other components in my workflow. After initializing and executing the SQL Query Component, I am not able to connect or forward its results to another component for further processing.

Reproduction

Initialize and configure the SQL Query Component with the necessary SQL query.

Execute the SQL query to retrieve data from the database.

Attempt to connect the output of the SQL Query Component to another component (e.g., Data, Agent, or any other).

The connection does not pass the results to the next component, and the results are not processed further.

Expected behavior

After executing the SQL query, the query results should be passed to another component seamlessly. For example, if I connect the output of the SQL Query Component to a Data component, the data should flow through without any issues.

I found a similar unsolved discussion regarding issues with the SQL Query Component in Langflow ^[1].

To pass the results from Langflow's SQL Query Component to another component, you can use the SQLExecutorComponent class. This component is designed to execute SQL queries and return the results, which can then be passed to other components in your workflow. Here's a brief overview of how you can achieve this:

1. Use the SQLExecutorComponent to execute your SQL query. Configure it with options like database_url, include_columns, passthrough, and add_error to customize the execution and error handling.

2. Once the query is executed, the result is returned as a Text object. You can then pass this result to another component for further processing.

Example usage:

from langflow.custom import CustomComponent

class SQLExecutorComponent(CustomComponent):
    # Component configuration and methods as defined in the new context

# Instantiate the SQLExecutorComponent
sql_executor = SQLExecutorComponent()

# Execute the query and get the result
result = sql_executor.build(
    query="SELECT * FROM your_table",
    database_url="your_database_url",
    include_columns=True
)

# Pass the result to another component
class ProcessSQLResultComponent(CustomComponent):
    def process(self, sql_result: Text):
        # Implement your processing logic here
        processed_result = f"Processed: {sql_result}"
        return processed_result

# Instantiate and use the processing component
processor = ProcessSQLResultComponent()
processed_result = processor.process(result)

This approach should help you integrate the SQL query results into your workflow for further processing ^[2][3].

You need to change the output type of the SQL Query Component. Now for some reason it is Text, that's why it can't be connected to Data for example. It also can't be connected to Agent, because it expects Message type. The easiest fix would be to change the output type of SQL Query Component to Message. For that, you need to open code of the component with button <> and change the output of method build to be -> Message instead of -> Text. You would also need to add this import from langflow.field_typing import Text, Message

Can we connect MySql Database with SQL Query?
