psycopg2 VS Docker Compose

You can practice both by using https://www.psycopg.org from your Python code to communicate with your database. When I wanted to practice some SQL, that's what I did (we use psycopg at work, so that's what I practiced with, making a dream journal thingy for myself that was better than just noting stuff in a notepad because I could then look up e.g. what other stuff was correlated with Y, how many times I dreamed of X, etc. etc.)

But seems like it should work with Django 3, which you have specified https://github.com/psycopg/psycopg2/issues/1293

If you're using Postgres for your SQL, look at the "copy' method of the psycopg module (see https://www.psycopg.org/articles/2020/11/15/psycopg3-copy/) . It's much faster than INSERTs in my experience (YMMV).

Back when I used Psycopg2, there was no -binary package, so you'd get libpq set up similarly to pg-native. Docs say:

> The binary package is a practical choice for development and testing but in production it is advised to use the package built from sources.

I dunno, this seems worse to me.

Just go to the more easily readable docs here. I’m sorry, but the linked article is terrible.

psycopg2-binary. See https://github.com/psycopg/psycopg2/issues/1286.

psycopg2-binary, PostgreSQL Database adapter for python.

... # psycopg2==2.9.3 # https://github.com/psycopg/psycopg2 ...

I sometimes do this in testing. For example, consider the library used to communicate with a Postgres database, psycopg.

“Compose simplifies the control of your entire application stack, making it easy to manage services, networks, and volumes in a single, comprehensible YAML configuration file. Then, with a single command, you create and start all the services from your configuration file.” - Docker documentation

curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com -o get-docker.sh sudo sh get-docker.sh # Install docker compose sudo curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.29.2/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose # Apply executable permissions to the binary sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose # Run Project docker-compose up -d

Docker,

This foundation now opens the door to even more powerful concepts. You can explore more advanced concepts such as container networking, streamlining the management of complex applications with Docker Compose, and how to make your application data persistent using volumes.

In many projects that are containerized, especially in cases where development is also done locally with docker-compose, teams often have two Dockerfiles, 1 for Development, the other for Production. If you happen to have multiple environments like pre-prod, staging and so on, some teams could have different Dockerfiles for these environments.

sudo curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/latest/download/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

You can also use Docker Compose to deploy the cluster, without having to write all the previous commands.

[ec2-user]$ sudo yum update -y [ec2-user]$ sudo yum install -y docker [ec2-user]$ sudo service docker start [ec2-user]$ sudo curl -L https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/latest/download/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m) -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose [ec2-user]$ sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose [ec2-user]$ docker --version Docker version 20.10.23, build 7155243 [ec2-user]$ docker-compose --version Docker Compose version v2.18.1
