Psycopg2 Changelog

What's new in Psycopg2 2.5.4

Feb 2, 2015
  • Added jsonb support for PostgreSQL 9.4 (ticket #226).
  • Fixed segfault if COPY statements are passed to execute() instead of using the proper methods (ticket #219).
  • Force conversion of pool arguments to integer to avoid potentially unbounded pools (ticket #220).
  • Cursors WITH HOLD don't begin a new transaction upon move/fetch/close (ticket #228).
  • Cursors WITH HOLD can be used in autocommit (ticket #229).
  • callproc() doesn't silently ignore an argument without a length.
  • Fixed memory leak with large objects (ticket #256).
  • The internal _psycopg.so module can be imported stand-alone (to allow modules juggling such as the one described in ticket #201).

New in Psycopg2 2.5.2 (Jan 8, 2014)

  • Fixed segfault pickling the exception raised on connection error (ticket #170).
  • Meaningful connection errors report a meaningful message, thanks to Alexey Borzenkov (ticket #173).

New in Psycopg2 2.4.2 (Jun 14, 2011)

  • This version introduces the management of all session parameters through the new set_session() method and fixes some bugs related to multi-threading and green tasks.
  • It executes fewer queries at connection time, making it just a little bit faster.
