Because you're only getting the first row of the query result, even though the cursor that contains the result (should be server side in this case) does have more rows.

I have created a function to search a Postgresql database but it only pulls up the first row of the database no matter what value I search for. Why would it only pull up the first row of the database? I am using Psycopg2 2.6 and Python 3.5.

def search(title=None, isbn=None, year=0): '''Search the database rows''' conn = psycopg2.connect("dbname='books'") cur = conn.cursor() cur.execute("SELECT books.title, books.isbn, books.year FROM books WHERE books.title = title OR books.isbn = books.isbn OR books.year = year") rows = cur.fetchone()
