ephemeral-postgres

ephemeral-postgres is a python package for easily setting up, testing, and finally tearing down postgres instances. It can be easily integrated in most test suites but has been primarily used with pytest.

pip install ephemeral-postgres

Example

import ephemeral_postgres
import psycopg2

with ephemeral_postgres.postgres() as uri:
    con = psycopg2.connect(uri)
    cur = con.cursor()
    cur.execute('select * from pg_database')
    for row in cur.fetchall():
        print(row)
