Connect to AWS RDS Postgres database with python

0 votes

 connected to it using pgAdmin4 with the following configs of a read-only user:

host_name = "my-rds-table-name.123456.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com"
user_name = "my_user_name"
password = "abc123def345"

I have verified that I can query against the table.

However, I cannot connect to it using python:

SQLAlchemy==1.2.16
psycopg2-binary==2.7.6.1
mysqlclient==1.4.1

With:

import psycopg2
engine = psycopg2.connect(
    database="my-rds-table-name",
    user="my_user_name",
    password="abc123def345",
    host="my-rds-table-name.123456.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com",
    port='5432'
)

Here my-rds-table-name is the database instance name, not the database name, the default database name is postgres

import psycopg2

engine= psycopg2.connect(

database="postgres",

user="my-user-name",

password="abc123def345",

host="my-rds-table-name.123456.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com
