Project mention: Show HN: An asynchronous database connection manager for Python | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-10-01
Hello HN! I made this library because there doesn't seem to be one good way to manage database connections in Python. Functions provided by SQLAlchemy and database drivers are either very bare-bone or outdated ux (dx?) wise.
I used to really love databases[1], but its code is a mess[2], adding new backends is difficult and now it's archived. I wanted to have a similarly simple API and ability to create force rollback connections for tests so you don't have to call your DB clean-up callbacks in each test that uses a database connection, everything will be done in a transaction that will then be cancelled.

If you like the “use Postgres until it breaks” approach, there’s a middle ground between hand-rolling and running Kafka/Redis/Rabbit: PGQueuer.
PGQueuer is a small Python library that turns Postgres into a durable job queue using the same primitives discussed here — `FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED` for safe concurrent dequeue and `LISTEN/NOTIFY` to wake workers without tight polling. It’s for background jobs (not a Kafka replacement), and it shines when your app already depends on Postgres.
Nice-to-haves without extra infra: per-entrypoint concurrency limits, retries/backoff, scheduling (cron-like), graceful shutdown, simple CLI install/migrations. If/when you truly outgrow it, you can move to Kafka with a clearer picture of your needs.

Disclosure: I maintain PGQueuer.

uv works great in a container, you can tell it to skip creating a venv and use the system's version of Python.
Both of my Docker Compose start app examples for https://github.com/nickjj/docker-flask-example and https://github.com/nickjj/docker-django-example use uv.
The biggest win is speed. Dependencies get installed ~10x faster than with pip, at least on my machine.

raglite
