I have a list and a tuple ( from sqlite query) and what to check if the items in list are not in the db tuple. If not add to newJobs list
x
links = ["example.com", "mysite.com"]
newJobs = []
dbgetLink = cursor.execute("SELECT link from jobs")
Output of dbgetLink:
('company.com',)
('mysite.com',)
this works but it checks if db is in links list.
But I want it the reverse way if the links list items are in db.
for i in links:
for row in dbgetLink:
if row[0] not in links:
print("False, not in list.", row[0])
newJobs.append(row[0])

You can try a list comprehension:
newJobs = [x for x in myList if not x in list(myTuple)]
myList
is your list and myTuple
is your tuple
