Installation

At the command line:

$ pip install oslo.db

Or, if you have virtualenvwrapper installed:

$ mkvirtualenv
$ pip install oslo.db

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

$ pip install MySQL-python

Or:

$ pip install pysqlite

Using with MySQL

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

$ sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev
$ pip install MySQL-python

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