mysqlclient MacOS 使用报错 NameError: name ‘_mysql’ is not defined_django the above exception (dlopen(-优快云博客

在MacOS环境下，使用django链接mysql数据库时遇到'NameError: name '_mysql' is not defined'的问题。报错原因是系统找不到_mysql库。解决方法是通过find命令找到mysqlclient库的路径，并将其添加到dylib的动态库查找路径中，设置环境变量后重启服务即可正常连接。

背景

最近使用 django 作为一个服务的后台，在使用 mysqlclient 链接 mysql 数据库时发生一个奇怪的报错 NameError: name ‘_mysql’ is not defined

下面是具体报错信息

其中最关键的报错信息：Library not loaded: @rpath/libmysqlclient.21.dylib ，没有加载 libmysqlclient.21.dylib 这个库，通过 find 命令本机查找 libmysqlclient.21.dylib 位置（每个人电脑上 mysql 安装路径不同，根据具体情况具体分析）。
find / -name libmysqlclient.21.dylib
