在使用 pip install psycopg2 命令安装时，报了以下错误。

    pg_config is required to build psycopg2 from source.  Please add the directory
    containing pg_config to the $PATH or specify the full executable path with the
    option:
    
        python setup.py build_ext --pg-config /path/to/pg_config build ...
    
    or with the pg_config option in 'setup.cfg'.
    
    If you prefer to avoid building psycopg2 from source, please install the PyPI
    'psycopg2-binary' package instead.
    
    For further information please check the 'doc/src/install.rst' file (also at
    <http://initd.org/psycopg/docs/install.html>).

在查阅了许多中文文档后，不是说安装二进制版 psycopg-binary ，就是要求在本地安装postgresql数据库，就很麻烦，且很扯。

在查看了官方文档之后，文章明确提到了 psycopg-binary 和 psycopg 的区别，以及安装需要的依赖包。

psycopg vs psycopg-binary

psycopg-binary软件包旨在让初学者开始使用Python和PostgreSQL，而无需满足构建要求。

如果您是依赖于psycopg2的已发布包的维护者，则不应将psycopg2二进制文件用作模块依赖项。对于生产使用，建议您使用源分发。

依赖项

• gcc
• python3-devel
• libpq-dev（pg_config在这个包里）

所以针对找不到pg_config，应该首先安装 libpq-dev ，而不是曲线救国去安装 psycopg-binary

ubuntu



 

apt install libpq-dev

centos



 

yum install libpq-devel.x86_64

macOS



 

最后再安装

pip install psycopg2

python安装postgresql驱动

使用 psycopg2 连接 postgresql

下载 psycopg2

wget http://initd.org/psycopg/tarballs/PSYCOPG-2-7/psycopg2-2.7.1.tar.gz

解压安装，或者是使用pip 安装

pip install psycopg2-2.7.1.tar.gz

报错:

Please add the directory containing pg_config to the PATH

or specify the full executable path with the option:

or with the pg_config option in ‘setup.cfg‘.

解决：

yum install postgresql-devel*
