Snowflake

import dot_connect

con = dot_connect.snowflake.connect()
print(con.cursor().execute("SELECT 1;").fetchall())

MySQL

import dot_connect

con = dot_connect.mysql.connect()
cursor = con.cursor()
cursor.execute("SELECT 1")
result = cursor.fetchall()
print(result)

PostgreSQL

import dot_connect

con = dot_connect.postgres.connect()
cursor = con.cursor()
