django1.7, python3.4 and MySQL

[Larry Martell]

So it seems MySQLdb doesn't support python3, and I see this on the django site:

mysqlclient is a fork of MySQLdb which notably supports Python 3 and
can be used as a drop-in replacement for MySQLdb. At the time of this
writing, this is the recommended choice for using MySQL with Django.

mysqlclient

Django requires mysqlclient 1.3.3 or later. Note that Python 3.2 is
not supported. Except for the Python 3.3+ support, mysqlclient should
mostly behave the same as MySQLDB.

So does this mean that mysqlclient does support python3.4?

And how can I download a debian package for that?

We are working with mysql's own python client, which you can download and find at http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/python/.

You should probably use a virtual environment instead of installing it into the debian system and using it as default.

We use vagrant. I was hoping to use mysqlclient, thinking it would be
more or less a drop in replacement for MySQLdb.

Yes, mysql-python-connector works fine with python3.4.2.

I'm using it and no problems until now.

Yes, I know that. I am looking for mysqlclient

[Tim Graham]

mysqlclient is available here: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/mysqlclient

I just fixed the missing links in Django's database documentation -- sorry for the confusion.

[Larry Martell]

Thanks.

Hi eduardo,

Have you tried the following?

pip install mysqlclient

Usually, you should use the package name, you don't need to specify the
specific wheel you want to install.

Cheers,
Alasdair
