pg0 - PostgreSQL for Python
Zero-config PostgreSQL with pgvector. No installation, no Docker, no configuration.
Install
pip install pg0-embedded
Usage
from pg0 import Pg0
# Basic usage
with Pg0() as pg:
print(pg.uri) # postgresql://postgres:postgres@127.0.0.1:5432/postgres
pg.execute("CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS vector")
pg.execute("SELECT version()")
# Custom configuration
pg = Pg0(
name="myapp",
port=5433,
username="myuser",
password="mypass",
database="mydb",
config={"shared_buffers": "512MB"}
)
pg.start()
pg.stop()
API
Pg0 Class
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
start() |

stop() |
Stop PostgreSQL |
drop() |

Module Functions
import pg0
pg0.start(name="default", port=5432, ...) # Start instance
pg0.stop(name="default") # Stop instance
pg0.drop(name="default") # Delete instance
pg0.info(name="default") # Get instance info
pg0.list_instances() # List all instances
Getting Connection URI
from pg0 import Pg0
pg = Pg0()
pg.start()
# Using the uri property
print(pg.uri) # postgresql://postgres:postgres@127.0.0.1:5432/postgres
# Or using info()
info = pg.info()
print(info.uri) # postgresql://postgres:postgres@127.0.0.1:5432/postgres
print(info.port) # 5432
print(info.username) # postgres
print(info.database) # postgres
Runtime paths
Set PG0_EXECUTABLE to the absolute path of an existing pg0 executable to use
it instead of the binary bundled in the wheel. An invalid override raises
Pg0NotFoundError; it never silently falls back to the bundled binary.
The CLI also accepts PG0_HOME for writable instance state and
PG0_INSTALLATION_DIR for extracted PostgreSQL and pgvector files. Both must
be absolute paths and are inherited by SDK subprocesses. The installation root
contains a version subdirectory, for example 18.1.0/bin/postgres.exe.
--data-dir / Pg0(data_dir=...) continues to override an instance's data path.
See runtime directories
for provisioning and permission requirements.
