Description:

pgpasslib 1.1.0

pgpasslib is a library for retrieving passwords from a PostgreSQL password
file, either from a location specified in the PGPASSFILE environment
variable or in the .pgpass file in the current user’s home directory.


Installation
pgpasslib may be installed via the Python package index with the tool of
your choice. I prefer pip:
pip install pgpasslib


Documentation
https://pgpasslib.readthedocs.org


Requirements
There are no requirements outside of the Python standard library.


Example
The following example will attempt to get the password for PostgreSQL running
on localhost:5432 to the postgres database as the postgres user.
import pgpasslib

password = pgpasslib.getpass('localhost', 5432, 'postgres', 'postgres')
if not password:
raise ValueError('Did not find a password in the .pgpass file')
