MySQLdb library cannot find image

Question

I am trying to use MySQLdb library.

I have install the library using pip install mysqlclient

When running: import MySQLdb as db I have the following error:

import MySQLdb as db
  File "/Users/Solal/anaconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/MySQLdb/__init__.py", line 19, in <module>
    from . import _mysql
ImportError: dlopen(/Users/Solal/anaconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/MySQLdb/_mysql.cpython-37m-darwin.so, 2): Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.21.dylib
  Referenced from: /Users/Solal/anaconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/MySQLdb/_mysql.cpython-37m-darwin.so
  Reason: image not found

That's all the files I have in my MySQLdb repo:

constants
__pycache__
converters.py
_exceptions.py
cursors.py
_mysql.cpython-37m-darwin.so
release.py
compat.py
times.py
connections.py

Also I have no folder mysql in /usr/local/opt

I have found online a fix as follow: sudo ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/mysql/5.7.10/lib/libmysqlclient.dylib /usr/local/lib/libmysqlclient.18.dylib

However I have nothing in my /usr/local/Cellar/ folder

我仅通过运行就成功使其工作：

brew install mysql
