Can’t install mysql-python (newer versions) in Windows

by

I solved it myself.

I use the wheel installer from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#mysql-python.

There are two wheel packages there. The amd64 one refuses to install on my platform (Windows) but the other one works just fine. I mean the file with this name:

MySQL_python-1.2.5-cp27-none-win32.whl

Then install it by running this below command in the same folder with the wheel package.

pip install MySQL_python-1.2.5-cp27-none-win32.whl

Python 3.7

Use mysqlclient‑1.3.13‑cp37‑cp37m‑win32.whl
