omen2 0.0.4

Database object & cache manager

Simple library that makes working with classes and databases more convenient in python.

omen2 will take a set of classes, and a database, and link them together with migration support.

omen2 allows the user to:

• serialize created objects to the db
• query the db and return objects, not rows
• query for related objects
• access/lock/update signleton objects across multiple threads
• roll back changes on exceptions
• create objects not-bound to the db, and later, bind them
• cache objects in use, flexible cache-control

omen2 is not fully flexible with regards to database structure:

• related tables must have primary keys
