"""PostgreSQL is a powerful and robust open source database.  Before configuring
the PostgreSQL engine, you must install the dependency ``psychopg2``.
 
Example
=======
 
Below is an example configuration:
 
.. code:: yaml
 
   - name: my_database
     engine: postgresql
     database: my_database
     username: searxng
     password: password
     query_str: 'SELECT * from my_table WHERE my_column = %(query)s'
 
Implementations
