Installing mysql in PyCharm community edition

Question

I wasn't able to find this question asked before and this is driving me crazy. If this question is a duplicate, I'd appreciate it if someone could point me to an answer.

I tried to install mysql (using pip install mysql ) in the PyCharm terminal using Python 3.6. This is the error I get. I already updated pip to the latest version.

Command "C:\\Users\\David\\PycharmProjects\\cryptocurrency2\\cryptocurrencytrading\\Scripts\\python.exe -u -c "import setuptools, tokenize; file ='C:\\Users\\David\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\pip-install-alqyprfu\\mysqlclient\\setup.py';f=getattr(tokenize, 'open', open)( f ile );code=f.read().replace('\\r\\n', '\\n');f.close();exec(compile(code, file , 'exec'))" install --record C:\\Users\\David\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\pip-record-gcaxj074\\install-record.txt --single-version-externally-managed --compile --install-headers C:\\Users\\David\\PycharmProjects\\cryptocurrency2\\cryptocurrencytrading\\include\\site\\python3.6\\mysqlclient" failed with error code 1 in C:\\Users\\David\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\pip-install-alqyprfu\\mysqlclient\\ You are using pip version 10.0.1, however version 18.1 is available. You should consider upgrading via the 'python -m pip install --upgrade pip' command.

Answer 1

You can install python packages in PyCharm without pip by using their package manager. Please refer to their official docs about installing packages here

or you can also always use your OS cmd to install the packages explicitly.

I'd suggest you should update your pip version by :

python -m pip install --upgrade pip

Hope this Helps!

Answer 2

尝试使用python -m pip install --upgrade pip ur pip版本太低
