我正在使用virtualenv，我需要安装“psycopg2”。
我做了以下几点:
pip install http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/p/psycopg2/psycopg2-2.4.tar.gz#md5=24f4368e2cfdc1a2b03282ddda814160
我有以下信息:

我的问题是，我只需要这样做来让psycopg2工作?
python setup.py build_ext --pg-config /path/to/pg_config build ...
我已经为此奋斗了几天，终于弄清楚如何在Windows的virtualenv中运行“pip install psycopg2”命令(运行Cygwin)。
我碰到了“pg_config可执行文件未找到”错误，但我已经在Windows中下载并安装了postgres。它也安装在Cygwin;在Cygwin中运行"which pg_config"会给出"/usr/bin/pg_config"，并且运行"pg_config"会给出正常的输出——然而安装在Cygwin中的版本是:
VERSION = PostgreSQL 8.2.11
这不适用于当前版本的psycopg2，该版本似乎至少需要9.1。当我将“c:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.2\bin”添加到我的Windows路径中时，Cygwin pip安装程序能够找到正确的PostgreSQL版本，并且我能够成功地使用pip安装模块。(这可能比使用Cygwin版本的PostgreSQL更好，因为原生版本会运行得更快)。
MacOS系统安装
Following are the steps, which worked for me and my team members while installing psycopg2 on Mac OS Big Sur and which we have extensively tested for Big Sur. Before starting make sure you have the Xcode command-line tool installed. If not, then install it from the Apple Developer site. The below steps assume you have homebrew installed. If you have not installed homebrew then install it. Last but not the least, it also assumes you already have PostgreSQL installed in your system, if not then install it. Different people have different preferences but the default installation method on the official PostgreSQL site via Enterprise DB installer is the best method for the majority of people.
Put up the linkage to pg_config file in your .zshrc file by: export PATH="$PATH:/Library/PostgreSQL/12/bin:$PATH". This way you are having linkage with the pg_config file in the /Library/PostgreSQL/12/bin folder. So if your PostgreSQL installation is via other means, like Postgres.app or Postgres installation via homebrew, then you need to have in your .zshrc file the link to pg_config file from the bin folder of that PostgreSQL installation as psycopg2 relies on that.
Install OpenSSL via Homebrew using the command brew install openssl. The reason for this is that libpq, the library which is the basis of psycopg2, uses openssl - psycopg2 doesn't use it directly. After installing put the following commands in your .zshrc file:
export PATH="/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1/bin:$PATH"
export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1/lib"
export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1/include"
By doing this you are creating necessary linkages in your directory. These commands are suggested by brew while you install openssl and have been directly picked up from there.
Now comes the most important step, which is to install libpq using the command brew install libpq. This installs libpq library. As per the documentation
libpq是C应用程序程序员到PostgreSQL的接口。libpq是一组库函数，允许客户端程序将查询传递给PostgreSQL后端服务器，并接收这些查询的结果。
使用brew Link libpq链接libpq，如果这不起作用，那么使用命令:brew Link libpq——force。
还要在.zshrc文件中放入以下export PATH="/usr/local/opt/libpq/bin:$PATH"。这将为libpq库创建所有必要的链接。
现在重新启动终端或使用以下命令源~/.zshrc。
即使在conda环境中工作，这也可以工作。
注意:pip install psycopg2-binary应该避免，因为根据psycopg2库的开发人员的说法
不鼓励在生产环境中使用-binary包，因为过去它们在多线程环境中被证明是不可靠的。这可能已经在最近的版本中修复，但我从来没有设法重现失败。
