It requires psycopg2 – this can be found via yum or apt…

#!/usr/bin/env python

import psycopg2

def main():

    connection = psycopg2.connect('host=server.domain.com dbname=database user=username password=password')

    mark = connection.cursor()

    query='SELECT * FROM tablename'

    mark.execute(query)

    record = mark.fetchall()

    for i in record:

        print i

    return

if __name__ == '__main__':

    main()

        searchHandle.close()

        results = search.split(‘\n’)

    else:
