It supports both simple connections and connection pooling, and includes MySQL replication protocol support for streaming binary log events asynchronously.\n\nThe package is a community-maintained fork built on top of pymysql and aiomysql, reusing their design while accelerating the core protocol handling. It has been tested against both MySQL and MariaDB. No runtime dependencies are required beyond Python itself, though installation requires a C++ compiler (pre-installed on Linux/macOS, must be manually set up on Windows).","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need async MySQL access and are willing to handle Cython compilation. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, and offers API compatibility with aiomysql while claiming performance gains. Install friction is moderate (compilation required, especially on Windows). Not recommended if you need Python versions below 3.10 or want to avoid build toolchain setup."},"id":"asyncmy2","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/asyncmy2","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/asyncmy2.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/asyncmy2/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-02","license_spdx":"Apache-2.0","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"asyncmy2","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"A fast asyncio MySQL driver"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":328516,"position":7555,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.2.21"}
