django-pylibmc 0.2

Django cache backend using pylibmc

================================
pylibmc cache backend for Django
================================

This package provides a memcached cache backend for Django using
`pylibmc http://github.com/lericson/pylibmc`_. You want to use pylibmc because
it's fast.


Requirements
------------

django-pylibmc requires Django 1.2. It was written and tested on Python 2.6.


Installation
------------


Get it from `pypi <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-pylibmc>`_::

pip install django-pylibmc

or `github <http://github.com/jbalogh/django-pylibmc>`_::

pip install -e git://github.com/jbalogh/django-pylibmc.git#egg=django-pylibmc


Caveats
-------

This package breaks away from the current handling of ``timeout=0`` in Django.
Django converts 0 into the default timeout, while django-pylibmc leaves it as
0. memcached takes 0 to mean "infinite timeout." You can still pass ``None``
to get the default timeout.
