postgresql and pgAdmin4

[bgroper]

Hi forum
I'm a long time postgres user, and would really like to be able to use pgAdmin4 in FreeBSD.
(pgAdmin3 has become seriously outdated, and no longer supports recent version/s of postgres.)
Sadly, there's no package for pgadmin4, so I search for information and try to follow the pgAdmin4 section on this page.
https://wiki.freebsd.org/PostgreSQL/Setup
I've tried doing this using both FBSD versions 13.3 and 14.0.
- Install the packages, upgrade pip, create the virtualenv, activate, then pip install pgAdmin4.
Seems this process fails at the same point, with this message :

ERROR: Failed building wheel for psutil
Failed to build psutil
ERROR: Could not build wheels for psutil, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

I also tried to pip install psutil separately, which seems successful, then pip install pgadmin4
Sadly, same error as above.
Thanks for any tips or clues to do this the-right-way.

I found following installation guide: pgAdmin 4 on FreeBSD 14

In the howto pgadmin4 v8.1 is fetched, but it seems it is not available anymore. Try latest v8.5, or other supported versions.

Note: Getting pgadmin4 into ports is in progress, but dependency issues need to be resolved first (dependency port update and new ports required):

Thanks, when time permits, I'll give those installation notes a try.
I'm already on the cc list for Bug 261652.

There should be psutil version number in the error message. If you do not install the exact version specified, the install process will anyway try to install the version it requires.

This recipe ( far from ideal ) is still working. At least passes all tests and published.
