I have Scribus 1.5 built 19 May 2015, Build ID:
C-*-T-*-C1.12.18-Windows-64bit
I want to be able to call a Python script which connects to a PostgreSQL
database.
I tried this simple test script:
#
# tests ability to connect to postgresql from within Scribus Python
#
#
import sys
# environment checking
try:
import scribus
except ImportError:
print "This script only runs from within Scribus."
sys.exit(1)
import psycopg2 as dbapi2
db = dbapi2.connect (database="scribudb", user="xxx", password="xxx")
cur = db.cursor()
and, of course, got the error message:
ImportError: No module named psycopg2
I finding on the Scribus wiki at
http://wiki.scribus.net/canvas/Scripter/Databases
Python Database Module
There are various modules
<http://www.python.org/topics/database/modules.html> for database
access. Remember that the module
*must be [emphasis]* installed in/with the Python version which is
used/compiled in Scribus!
Is there a way to patch a module into the Python tree for Scribus?
Alternatively,
can I direct Scribus to use my Python 2.7 installed on my Windows box
wherein
I can install whatever modules?
