elephant_parsel

wrapper for PostgreSQL queries with transaction and connection pooling support

This project is about making psycopg2 easier to use.

supported versions

Debian >=10, psycopg2 >=2.7, python >=3.7

installation

install using pipenv:

pipenv install elephant_parsel

basic usage

from elephant_parsel.postgres_db import PostgresDB, PostgresDBException
import logging
db = PostgresDB(connection_config=dict(
    host='db.example.com',
    port=5432,
    dbname='the_database_name',
    user='the_username',
    password='****',
    minconn=1,
    maxconn=4
  ), logger=logging.getLogger(), connect=True, register_hstore=False)

server_version_string = db.query_one('select version()', None, column='version')

The connection_config is used as kwargs for the psycopg2.ThreadedConnectionPool, so it should support all libpq connection variables: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/libpq-connect.html#LIBPQ-PARAMKEYWORDS
