How To Install Flask-mysql For Python3?

I tried to install flask-mysql from pip3 to python3, but it throws exception. Here is log. Running setup.py (path:/tmp/pip-build-j2hw4zsz/MySQL-python/setup.py) egg_info for packag

Solution 1:

Flask-MySQL uses MySQL-Python, which doesn't support Python 3, and there has been an open issue about it for over a year. Use Flask-MySQLdb instead, which uses MySQLclient.

pip install flask-mysqldb

Or use SQLAlchemy, a much more powerful interface for working with databases.

pip install flask-sqlalchemy mysqlclient
