A document-oriented database written purely in Python.

Project description

Blitz is a document-oriented database toolkit for Python that is backend-agnostic.

It comes with a flat-file database for JSON documents and provides MongoDB-like querying capabilities.

Key Features

  • Document-based, object-oriented interface.

  • Powerful and rich querying language.

  • Deep document indexes on arbitrary fields.

  • Compressed storage of documents.

  • Support for multiple backends (e.g. file-based storage, MongoDB).

  • Support for database transactions (currently only for the file-based backend).

Documentation

An extensive documentation, including tutorials and installation instructions is available on ReadTheDocs.

Source Code

The source code is available on GitHub.
