摘自Mark Lutz的《Programming Python》:

curs.execute("Select * FROM people LIMIT 0")
colnames = [desc[0] for desc in curs.description]

你可以做的另一件事是创建一个游标，你可以通过它们的名字引用你的列(这是一个需要，导致我在第一个地方到这个页面):

import psycopg2
from psycopg2.extras import RealDictCursor

ps_conn = psycopg2.connect(...)
ps_cursor = psql_conn.cursor(cursor_factory=RealDictCursor)

ps_cursor.execute('select 1 as col_a, 2 as col_b')
my_record = ps_cursor.fetchone()
print (my_record['col_a'],my_record['col_b'])

>> 1, 2

我注意到你必须在查询后使用cursor.fetchone()来获取cursor.description中的列列表(即在[desc[0] for desc in curs.description])

如果你想获得一个已经关联列标头的pandas数据帧，试试这个:

import psycopg2, pandas

con=psycopg2.connect(
    dbname=DBNAME, 
    host=HOST, 
    port=PORT, 
    user=USER, 
    password=PASSWORD
)

sql = """
select * from x
"""

d = pandas.read_sql_query(sql,con)

con.close()

print(type(d))

print(pandas.DataFrame.head(d))

    # then we use bracket access to get the FIRST value.

    # access columns by numeric index as well - which is really nice.
    cursor.execute('SHOW work_mem')

    # Call fetchone - which will fetch the first row returned from the
    # database.
