• Profiles - Secure connection management via environment variables
• Environment Variables - Available configuration options
• Supported Backends - Choose the right backend for your workload

Quick start

Connect to the default embedded backend:

import xorq.api as xo

con = xo.connect()

Connect to a specific backend:

# DuckDB
duckdb_con = xo.duckdb.connect()

# PostgreSQL
pg_con = xo.postgres.connect_env()

# Pandas
pandas_con = xo.pandas.connect()
