[Package Request] - mysqlclient #533

Open tickerBerkin opened 8 months ago

tickerBerkin commented 8 months ago

What package is missing from Amazon Linux 2023? Please describe and include package name. [python3-]mysqlclient - MySQL/mariaDB database connector for Python

Is this an update to existing package or new package request? New package request

Is this package available in Amazon Linux 2? If it is available via external sources such as EPEL, please specify. Not sure if available in AL2 URL : https://github.com/PyMySQL/mysqlclient

Any additional information you'd like to include. (use-cases, etc) I realise that this can by built by PIP, but this needs gcc and Python3 / Mariadb -devel environment

Can't believe MySQL server and client is not provided yet, being so fundamental to so many use cases involving deploying and managing MySQL services, including those provided by AWS RDS. It is discouraging to go this way seeing that MySQL request here dates from a year ago.

My request was for the interface from python to mysql/mariadb. mariadb (a mysql replacement) is available.

OK, I see. You probably know, but if it helps: That's easier to overcome installing it from PyPi through requirements, with the advantage of managing versions at project/virtual environment level.
