PsqlPy#
Async PostgreSQL adapter using psqlpy, a Rust-backed PostgreSQL driver with native connection pooling.
Configuration#
- class sqlspec.adapters.psqlpy.PsqlpyConfig[source]#
Bases:
AsyncDatabaseConfig[Any,ConnectionPool,PsqlpyDriver]Configuration for Psqlpy asynchronous database connections.
- driver_type#
alias of
PsqlpyDriver
- __init__(*, connection_config=None, connection_instance=None, migration_config=None, statement_config=None, driver_features=None, bind_key=None, extension_config=None, **kwargs)[source]#
Initialize Psqlpy configuration.
Extracts the 'on_connection_create' hook from driver_features before storing them. Initializes a set to track initialized connection IDs because psqlpy connections do not support weak references.
- Parameters:
connection_config¶ (
PsqlpyPoolParams|dict[str, typing.Any] |None) -- Connection and pool configuration parameters.connection_instance¶ (
Any|None) -- Existing connection pool instance to use.migration_config¶ (
dict[str, typing.Any] |None) -- Migration configuration.statement_config¶ (
StatementConfig|None) -- SQL statement configuration.driver_features¶ (
PsqlpyDriverFeatures|dict[str, typing.Any] |None) -- Driver feature configuration (TypedDict or dict).bind_key¶ (
str|None) -- Optional unique identifier for this configuration.extension_config¶ (
dict[str,dict[str,Any] |LitestarConfig|FastAPIConfig|StarletteConfig|SanicConfig|FlaskConfig|ADKConfig|EventsConfig|OpenTelemetryConfig|PrometheusConfig] |None) -- Extension-specific configuration.
- async create_connection()[source]#
Create a single async connection (not from pool).
- Return type:
- Returns:
A psqlpy Connection instance.
- provide_session(*_args, statement_config=None, **_kwargs)[source]#
Provide an async driver session context manager.
- async provide_pool(*args, **kwargs)[source]#
Provide async pool instance.
- Return type:
- Returns:
The async connection pool.
Connection Parameters#
Pool Parameters#
- class sqlspec.adapters.psqlpy.PsqlpyPoolParams[source]#
Bases:
PsqlpyConnectionParamsPsqlpy pool parameters.
Driver Features#
- class sqlspec.adapters.psqlpy.PsqlpyDriverFeatures[source]#
Bases:
TypedDictPsqlpy driver feature flags.
- enable_cast_detection: Enable cast-aware parameter processing.
Defaults to True. When enabled, SQL casts in prepared statements guide psqlpy parameter coercion for JSON, UUID, and timestamp-like values.
- enable_pgvector: Enable pgvector extension detection for vector similarity search.
Defaults to True when the pgvector Python package is installed. Detects the PostgreSQL vector extension and promotes the dialect to "pgvector". It does not register psqlpy type handlers; use psqlpy.extra_types.PgVector or explicit SQL casts for vector values.
- enable_paradedb: Enable ParadeDB (pg_search) extension detection.
When enabled and the pg_search extension is detected, the SQL dialect switches to "paradedb" which supports search operators (@@@, &&&, etc.) and inherits all pgvector distance operators. Defaults to True. Independent of enable_pgvector.
- enable_pg_textsearch: Enable pg_textsearch extension detection for BM25 search.
When enabled and the pg_textsearch extension is detected, the SQL dialect switches to "pg_textsearch" which supports the BM25 <@> relevance ranking operator. Defaults to True.
json_serializer: Custom JSON serializer applied to the statement configuration. json_deserializer: Custom JSON deserializer retained alongside the serializer for parity with asyncpg. on_connection_create: Async callback executed when a connection is acquired from pool.
Receives the raw psqlpy connection for low-level driver configuration. Called exactly once per physical connection using WeakSet tracking.
- enable_events: Enable database event channel support.
Defaults to True when extension_config["events"] is configured. Provides pub/sub capabilities via LISTEN/NOTIFY or table-backed fallback. Requires extension_config["events"] for migration setup when using poll_queue or notify_queue.
- events_backend: Event channel backend selection.
Options: "notify", "notify_queue", "poll_queue" - "notify": Transient PostgreSQL LISTEN/NOTIFY with no replay or retry - "notify_queue": Durable queue plus a PostgreSQL notification wakeup hint - "poll_queue": Durable queue discovered by polling Defaults to "notify".
Extension Dialects#
PsqlPy supports the pgvector, pg_textsearch, and ParadeDB dialects for vector similarity search and full-text search operators. See the Dialects reference for operator details.
driver_features={"enable_pgvector": True} enables extension detection and
promotes the runtime dialect to pgvector when the PostgreSQL vector
extension is installed. It does not register automatic psqlpy vector type
handlers; pass psqlpy.extra_types.PgVector values or use explicit SQL casts
for vector parameters.

Dense vector parameters#
Parameters explicitly cast to VECTOR accept lists, tuples, and objects
with tolist(). SQLSpec wraps these values with psqlpy's native PgVector;
already-wrapped values pass through. This conversion does not require the
Python pgvector package and does not apply the dense-vector encoder to
HALFVEC or SPARSEVEC.
