A file-based value store for bytes and strings.

Project description

Keeper is a filesystem-based, content-addressable value store for Python 3.

Installation

$ pip install keeper

Using Keeper

Pass a directory path to a Keeper instance:

from keeper import Keeper

with Keeper("/some/directory/") as k:
    ...

Add string or bytes objects, and get a key in return:

key = self.keeper.add("The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog")

Use the key to retrieve the string:

value = keeper[key].as_string()

Add another string with some metadata:

key = keeper.add(text, mime="text/plain", filename="foo.txt", author="Joe Bloggs")

Retrieve metadata:

print(keeper[key].meta.mime)

Add a stream you can write to:

with keeper.add_stream() as stream:
     stream.write(b'A large number of bytes')

After the stream has closed, retrieve the key:

key = stream.key

Deployment

To build and deploy a package to PyPI:

$ bumpversion patch
$ python setup.py sdist bdist_wheel
