Bigdict

Project description

bigdict implements a persisted, out-of-memory dict for Python.

The usage API strives to be as close as possible to the built-in dict, with a small number of extras.

The “engine”, or “back-end”, is currently lmdb. However, lmdb is not the point; the point is rather a “persisted, out-of-memory dict”. Criteria used in choosing the engine:

  • It must be embedded, as opposed to client/server.

  • It must be a mature project with a reliable Python binding.

In addition,

  • It must use more files for storage as the data size grows, hence keeping file sizes controllable, as opposed to a single file growing unbounded.

If the chosen backend does not meet this requirement, it’s the responsibility of bigdict to implement that.

Installation:

$ pip install bigdict
