PersistentMemory 0.1.4

Package for persistent memory

PersistentMemory Library Documentation

Overview

PersistentMemory is a Python library for managing persistent data with optional encryption. It provides a simple interface for storing and retrieving data, with an added benefit of in-memory caching for improved read performance.

Installation

You can install the library using pip:

pip install PersistentMemory

Usage

Initialization

To use PersistentMemory, first import it and create an instance:

from persistentMemory.PersistentMemory import PersistentDictionary
pd = PersistentDictionary(appName='YourAppName', encryptionKey='YourEncryptionKey')

Storing Data

You can store data using the store_data method:

pd.your_key = your_data
pd.push('your_key', your_data)

Retrieving Data

Retrieve data using the retrieve_data method. This method will first check the in-memory cache before accessing the disk:

data = pd.your_key
data = pd.get('your_key')

Caching

Data read from disk is cached in memory, which speeds up subsequent read operations for the same data.

Features

• Data persistence on the filesystem.
• Data encryption.
