Psycopg 3.1 released

Hello,

After several months of development, we are proud to release Psycopg 3.1!

Psycopg 3.1 is a gradual improvement on Psycopg 3.0, introducing new exciting features, redefining what can be done on the boundary between Python and PostgreSQL.

Psycopg 3.0 released

Hello,

I am extremely excited to announce the first stable release of Psycopg 3!

Psycopg 3.0 beta 1 released!

We are immensely proud to release on PyPI the first beta package of Psycopg 3!

This is a relatively small release compared to previous major releases. However the creation of the packages took a lot of effort. The previously used CI system now has reduced support for free software projects - it was decided that package building should be moved to GitHub Actions.

Packaging has also become more complex because of the evolution of the Python packaging standards and the need to support multiple architectures (Intel, ARM, PPC...).

Maintaining a project such as Psycopg requires a lot of effort. For this reason, we are extremely grateful to all our sponsors who are enabling the maintenance and development of Psycopg. Thank you very much!

Psycopg 2.8.6 released

Psycopg 2.8.6 has been released.

Psycopg 2.8.5 released

Psycopg 2.8.5 has been released.

This release adds support for AIX and brings a few bug fixes.

Psycopg 2.8.4 released

Psycopg 2.8.4 has been released.

The release brings a few assorted bugfixes and adds support for Python 3.8 and PostgreSQL 12.

Psycopg 2.8.3 released

We have released Psycopg 2.8.3, which includes a slight change to the logical replication.

Choosing the right frequency to send replication feedback messages from the client to the server was previously the developer's responsibility, with too many feedback messages being a waste of bandwidth and server resources, too few slowing down WAL cleanup and possibly preventing a server graceful shutdown.

Psycopg 2.8.1, 2.8.2 released

Hello,

We have just released Psycopg 2.8.2; a few days ago Psycopg 2.8.1 was released.

Some of the bugs addressed are ordinary teething problem with the 2.8 release, but an important change landed with 2.8.2: binary packages now ship with OpenSSL 1.1 instead of 1.0. This should fix concurrency problems on connection experienced both on Windows and Linux. Many thanks to Matthew Brett and Jason Erickson for this improvement!

Psycopg 2.8 released

After about two years from the previous major release, psycopg 2.8 is finally here!

Among the highlights, PostgreSQL errors are now mapped to Python exceptions for a more idiomatic way to handle them. Several additions allow a better insight of the connection status and query results.

Behind the scene, asynchronous communication and concurrency received several improvements, and dropping support for older versions of Python gave the chance to refactor and modernise the codebase (with the especial help from Jon Dufresne who ruthlessly butchered our code into a streamlined pulp).

Thank you very much to everyone contributing so far. Happy hacking!

Psycopg 2.7.5 released

psycopg2 version 2.7.5 has been released, fixing a few bugs found in the last months:

Psycopg 2.7.4 released

We have released Psycopg version 2.7.4, bringing a few bug fixes... and working out the problem with Wheel packages.

Psycopg 2.7.3.2 released

Following the release of PostgreSQL 10 we have released new binary packages as Psycopg 2.7.3.2. There are no code changes from Psycopg 2.7.3, but the new binary packages ship with the PostgreSQL 10 client library, enabling the use of new features such as multiple hosts in connection string, read-only mode, SCRAM-SHA-256 authentication.

Psycopg 2.7.3.1 released

We have released psycopg2 release 2.7.3.1 as a new build of psycopg 2.7.3. The new build only affects the wheel packages and contains no change in the code.

The release 2.7.3.1 fixes psycopg2-wheels bug #2 which was in turn caused by auditwheel bug #80, resulting in incompatibility with glibc 2.26. The problem only affects Linux wheels users, it doesn't affect Windows, OSX, or user installing psycopg2 from source.

Psycopg 2.7.3 released

A quick release to fix a regression found in psycopg 2.7.2:

Restored default timestamptz[] typecasting to Python datetime. Regression introduced in Psycopg 2.7.2 (ticket #578).

Psycopg 2.7.2 released

Releasing psycopg2 version 2.7.2: a release fixing a host of bugs found in the last 3-4 months.

Psycopg 2.7.1 released

A quick bugfix release to solve some teething problems with some of the changes introduced in 2.7:

Ignore None arguments passed to connect() and make_dsn() (ticket #517).
OpenSSL upgraded from major version 0.9.8 to 1.0.2 in the Linux wheel packages (ticket #518).
Fixed build with libpq versions < 9.3 (ticket #520).

Psycopg 2.7 released

Finally here! Thank you very much for waiting so long: we have finally released Psycopg 2.7!

Buzzwords:

Faster! Helps generating SQL for repeatedly executed statements and faster Unicode decoding.
Safer! Helps generating dynamic SQL statements with variable table and field names.
Easier! Use the binary package to avoid the need of C compiler, pg_config, libpq required on the clients.
Replication! Support for PostgreSQL physical and logical replication.
Plays-better-with-pgbouncer-at-transaction-pooling-level! This.

Psycopg 2.4 released

Hi *,

this is probably one of the best psycopg releases ever. Daniele, Jason and all the others that sent patches did an impressive work to have psycopg build and work flawlessy on all the supported platforms (well.. we can probably do a little bit better on MacOS but everything else is almost perfect). So here it is (followed by NEWS excerpt, as always):

Have fun,

Psycopg 2.3.0 released

Hi *,

lately my involvement on psycopg has been quite small (work and other projects are taking their toll) but thanks to Daniele (with some help from Jan) here is a new psycopg2 release. The number of changes is big (an excerpt from the NEWS file is at the end, as always) so we decided to bump up the version to 2.3.0 and to test, and test... and test.
