Have python 3 support mysqldb's solution

preface

In the New Year I wish you all ES6, php PHP7, Java JAVA9, python python 3. Okay, so let's get to the main point of this article. You might be used to mysqldb in python2.x, but that component is no longer supported in python3.x. What if you also want python 3 to support mysqldb? Let's take a look.

why

MySQLdb is only suitable for python2.x. It is found that pip cannot be installed. Its replacement in py3 is: import pymysql

pip install pymysql
django+mysql

By default, Django still USES MySQLdb: to execute the bulletin: ImportError: No module named 'MySQLdb'

Solution:

In the site __init__.py Add to file

import pymysql
pymysql.install_as_MySQLdb()
