============
Installation
============

At the command line::

    $ pip install oslo.db

You will also need to install at least one SQL backend::

    $ pip install psycopg2

Or::

    $ pip install PyMySQL

Or::

    $ pip install pysqlite


Using with PostgreSQL
---------------------

If you are using PostgreSQL make sure to install the PostgreSQL client
development package for your distro. On Ubuntu this is done as follows::

    $ sudo apt-get install libpq-dev
    $ pip install psycopg2

The installation of psycopg2 will fail if libpq-dev is not installed first.
Note that even in a virtual environment the libpq-dev will be installed
system wide.
