Description

@SusanneBo

Driver version

redshift-connector==2.1.1

Redshift version

Redshift 1.0.77292

Client Operating System

Windows 11

Python version

Python 3.9.5

Table schema

select
GS_PE
SC_PE
SUM(SALDO_EUR)
from
Table

Problem description

  1. Expected behaviour:
    When we use functions such as sum() the query result should display the exact column name like we have defined in the SQL-Query
  2. Actual behaviour:
    When we use functions such as sum() the query result is missing the column name within the functions brackets
  3. Error message/stack trace:
    No error message for this issue.
  4. Any other details that can be helpful:

Result:

('gs_pe', 1043, None, None, None, None, None)
('sc_pe', 1043, None, None, None, None, None)
('sum', 1700, None, None, None, None, None)

Expected Result:

('gs_pe', 1043, None, None, None, None, None)
('sc_pe', 1043, None, None, None, None, None)
('sum(saldo_euro)', 1700, None, None, None, None, None)

Python Driver trace logs

Sorry, I have no privileges to create tables on the Redshift DB.

Reproduction code

with conn.cursor() as cur:
    cur.execute(sql)
    tuples_list = cur.fetchall()
    dataframe = pd.DataFrame(tuples_list, columns=[desc[0] for desc in cur.description], dtype="object")
    for field in cur.description:
        print(field)
