It provides a session-based API that handles connection pooling internally, URI-based connection configuration, and automatic type support for UUIDs and Unicode. The package also includes a Tornado integration for asynchronous query execution in web applications.\n\nThe package was last released on 2021-11-16 and is no longer maintained. While it remains in production/stable status according to its classifiers, the lack of updates means it has not been tested against recent Python or PostgreSQL versions and will not receive bug fixes or security updates.","worth_installing":"No, not for new projects. The package is abandoned (last release 2021-11-16) and will not receive maintenance, security updates, or compatibility fixes. For new PostgreSQL work, use actively maintained alternatives.
