Written from scratch, implementing the MySQL wire protocol?

By the way, after having implemented a pure PostgreSQL client in Python, I tried to do the same with MySQL; but protocol design is very bad, compared to PostgreSQL, so I gave up; it does not make sense to waste time with MySQL, IMHO

My goal is to store into a database table the username/password for a directory. Then, to have a htaccess like popup show when someone will reach that directory.

Right now I can do it easy with a htpasswd file, in nginx. But I think it is much more convenient to have a web interface where you can manage the users, etc.

You can write a web interface for htpasswd file, too. And if you have a lot of users, maybe a more efficient solution is to use a dbm database.
