An implementation of the psycopg2 module using cffi.

Project description

An implementation of the psycopg2 module using cffi. The module is currently compatible with Psycopg 2.4.4.

In order to satisfy cffi==0.4 requirement, you currently need to install cffi from source:

pip install -e hg+https://bitbucket.org/cffi/cffi#egg=cffi

After that you can install psycopg2cffi from pypi:

pip install psycopg2cffi

Or from source:

python setup.py develop

To use this package with Django or SQLAlchemy create somewhere in your python path (e.g. the site-packages of your virtual env) a psycopg2.py file with the following:

from psycopg2cffi import compat
compat.register()

This will map psycopg2cffi to psycopg2.

This module is only tested with python 2.6+ and PyPy trunk (will be 2.0 release, right now you can get a nighlty build for Linux or OS X from http://buildbot.pypy.org/nightly/trunk/).

This is a port of (Michael van Tellingen port https://github.com/mvantellingen/psycopg2-ctypes of Alex Gaynor’s rpython port (https://bitbucket.org/alex_gaynor/pypy-postgresql/overview) of psycopg2 to python + ctypes) to cffi.

To run tests, install pytest and run them with:

py.test psycopg2cffi
