mac下安装mysql-python

mac下安装mysql-python，下载源码在: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysql-python/files/?source=navbar

解压后执行 python setup.py build

报出错误为:

sh: mysql_config: command not found
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 18, in <module>
    metadata, options = get_config()
  File "/Users/dongquan/Downloads/MySQL-python-1.2.4b4/setup_posix.py", line 43, in get_config
    libs = mysql_config("libs_r")
  File "/Users/dongquan/Downloads/MySQL-python-1.2.4b4/setup_posix.py", line 25, in mysql_config
    raise EnvironmentError("%s not found" % (mysql_config.path,))
EnvironmentError: mysql_config not found

解决的办法是，修改 安装目录下,site.cfg, 

约12行附近，增加 mysql_config = /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config 

用来指定mysql的安装位置

继续执行 python setup.py build,

然后安装，执行sudo python setup.py install，安装完毕

在命令行中测试import MySQLdb，会曝出错误
Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "MySQLdb/__init__.py", line 19, in <module>
    import _mysql
ImportError: dlopen(/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/MySQL_python-1.2.4b4-py2.7-macosx-10.8-intel.egg/_mysql.so, 2): Library not loaded: libmysqlclient.18.dylib
  Referenced from: /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/MySQL_python-1.2.4b4-py2.7-macosx-10.8-intel.egg/_mysql.so
  Reason: image not found

解决方法: 创建libmysqlclient.18.dylib的“快捷方式”
sudo ln -s /usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.18.dylib /usr/lib/

再次执行import MySQLdb，就没有错误了
