Error during install of `pymssql` on Mac -- FreeTDS

I have reviewed numerous questions on this topic but all seem either out of date or unhelpful. I am attempting to set up pymssql using pip3. I have python version 3.7 and freetds version 1.1.26. When I run pip3 install pymssql here is the lengthy error I encounter. At first glance I thought it could be an issue with the freetds version (see here) and I also tried installing directly from the github repo: pip3 install git+https://github.com/pymssql/pymssql but the wheel failed to build.

UPDATE: it appears the pymssql project may be active again. The original discontinuation announcement is here: https://github.com/pymssql/pymssql/issues/668

Unfortunately, the pymssql project has been discontinued: https://github.com/pymssql/pymssql

I would recommend using pyodbc if you need to connect to SQL Server. Here's the quick version, and it looks like you've already done the FreeTDS installation.

brew install freetds
python3 -m venv pyodbc_venv
source pyodbc_venv/bin/activate
pip install pyodbc

Then, be explicit in your connection, as this solved most problems:

conn = pyodbc.connect('DRIVER={FreeTDS};SERVER=yourserver.yourcompany.com;PORT=1433;DATABASE=yourdb;UID=user;PWD=password;TDS_Version=7.3')

Full docs for pyodbc are here: https://github.com/mkleehammer/pyodbc/wiki

Good luck!
