PostgreSQL database adapter for the Python programming language
88803695ac
The encoding can be set by PGCLIENTENCODING, which may be an alternative spelling. Bug reported by Peter Eisentraut. At this point the idea of considering one of the random spellings such as EUC_CN as somewhat "blessed" is debunked. So just store the cleaned-up version of the encoding in the mapping table. Note that the cleaned-up version was needed by the unicode adapter: this requirement has been surpassed as the connection now contains a copy of the Python codec name set whenever the client encoding is set. |

psycopg2 - Python-PostgreSQL Database Adapter
********************************************
psycopg2 is a PostgreSQL database adapter for the Python programming
language. psycopg2 was written with the aim of being very small and fast,
and stable as a rock.
psycopg2 is different from the other database adapter because it was
designed for heavily multi-threaded applications that create and destroy
lots of cursors and make a conspicuous number of concurrent INSERTs or
UPDATEs. psycopg2 also provide full asycronous operations and support
for coroutine libraries.
psycopg2 can compile and run on Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, MacOS X and
Windows architecture. It supports Python versions from 2.4 onwards and
PostgreSQL versions from 7.4 onwards.
psycopg2 is free software ("free as in freedom" but I like beer too.)
It is licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License, version 3 or
later plus an exception to allow OpenSSL (libpq) linking; see LICENSE for
more details.
