Hello everyone, my name is Daniele, Italian developer living in London, and I have been the main psycopg2 maintainer for the past 10 years.
I have recently started working on its successor: psycopg3. The project is based on the experience I have gathered in these years about the technical matters of the Python/Postgres interoperation, as well as about the use cases and pain points of the people using the library. Psycopg tries to address the problems that are not easy to solve in a codebase which has its root before 2000, and embraces the state of the art of a Python library in 2020, from static typing to asyncio support. I started dabbling with the idea back in March (https://www.varrazzo.com/blog/2020/03/06/thinking-psycopg3/), when I stopped working for the company I had been working for the previous 12 years, and I thought that the moment was mature to put my experience into a new library. I worked on the project only part-time for a few months, and recently I've decided to work on it full time. I am looking for sponsors to help me to make the project sustainable and allow me to finish its development in a short time. If you work for a company using Python and PostgreSQL and would like to contribute, and make use of, the most advanced Postgres driver for Python, please consider to give your support. More information about the project is available at <https://www.psycopg.org/psycopg3/>. For any information please don't hesitate to get in touch. Wishing you a good day -- Daniele _______________________________________________ python-uk mailing list python-uk@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-uk
