Обсуждение: interfaces for python

I'd like to know if anyone has recommendations for which Python DB-API
2.0
interface to use with PostGreSQL-7.4.5.

The database and tools to interact with it will be hosted on a MacOS
10.3.x machine.
The db schema represents a small production studio environment with
only a handful
of users.  db connection will be intermittent.

pyPgSQL?
PyGreSQL?

Anything I should consider?

Thanks in advance!
Scott

    I'd advise psycopg as the fastest one (by a factor of 10x on large
selects).

I will recommend pygresql, as the only thing don't like about it is its
funny name :-)

It's fast and quite feature complete, and have been used for big
projects like Zope.

I second this recommendation.

Thanks for the responses!

I have selected psycopg based on:

    - your recommendations (though massively parallel connections
        aren't currently likely in my environment

    - my success in building the target (with kudos & props to their
        install documentation)

    - my ability to pronounce its name ;)

Now back to the schema ...

Thanks
Scott

Also because this interface is not affected by the "idle in transaction", indeed as the
last JDBC interface version this interface delay the transaction open at the first
statement. I think that the new postgres rpm shall insert this interface instead the
PyGres one.

I've been using psycopg for a few years and it works very well. I agree
with the other posters.

I would also add that a quick look at SQLObject is worthwhile for a
python programmer. Very handy.

I have no affiliation with the product but I am a fan. Been using it as
my CGI interface until Zope sorts out whether it wants to use DTML or
TAL for its web interface.
