Psycopg is the most popular PostgreSQL database adapter for
|
||
|
the Python programming language. Its main features are the
|
||
|
complete implementation of the Python DB API 2.0 specification
|
||
|
and the thread safety (several threads can share the same
|
||
|
connection). It was designed for heavily multi-threaded
|
||
|
applications that create and destroy lots of cursors and make
|
||
|
a large number of concurrent INSERTs or UPDATEs.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Psycopg 2 is mostly implemented in C as a libpq wrapper,
|
||
|
resulting in being both efficient and secure. It features
|
||
|
client-side and server-side cursors, asynchronous
|
||
|
communication and notifications, COPY support. Many Python
|
||
|
types are supported out-of-the-box and adapted to matching
|
||
|
PostgreSQL data types; adaptation can be extended and
|
||
|
customized thanks to a flexible objects adaptation system.
|
||
|
Psycopg 2 is both Unicode and Python 3 friendly.
