Did you install required prerequisites for mysqlclient?

macOS (Homebrew)

Install MySQL and mysqlclient:

Assume you are activating Python 3 venv

$ brew install mysql

$ pip install mysqlclient

If you don't want to install MySQL server, you can use mysql-client instead:

Assume you are activating Python 3 venv

$ brew install mysql-client

$ echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/mysql-client/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile

$ export PATH="/usr/local/opt/mysql-client/bin:$PATH"

$ pip install mysqlclient
