postgresql-wheel

A Python wheel for Linux containing a complete, self-contained, locally installable PostgreSQL database server.

All servers run as the Python process user in a local path, so this wheel does not require root or sudo privledges. Databases can be initialized in any directory.

Servers can be setup and torn down in test fixtures with no additional outside dependencies.

Currently this wheel only works for most flavors of Linux.

Postgres is compiled in the same “manylinux” environments provided by the cibuildwheel tool using Github Actions and directly archived into the wheel’s “package_data”.

The wheel can be installed with pip:

$ pip install postgresql-wheel
