pip3 install mysql-python 在 Mac 上失败

Question

There are a lot of similar question but all of them has different solution. And none of them work for me.

I'm trying to install Mysql connector for Django project but it gives below error.

First I have installed latest version of Django. Then install mysql with below code

brew install mysql - Worked fine.

Then this is the code which I'm trying install connector.

pip3 mysql-python . Was using easy_install mysql-python before but both of them are not working.

Python Version: 3.8.0

Django Version: 2.2.7

MySql Version: 8.0.18

pip3 mysql-python gives this error:

Answer 1

You're installing the wrong lib, you should be using mysqlclient .

pip install mysqlclient

I have a django project on my Mac using it.

Edit

You should be using virtualenv when installing pip packages.

Answer 2

This command worked for me

pip3 install mysqlclient==1.4.2.post1
