pydal-rqlite 0.1.0

Custom pyDAL adapter for rqlite (distributed SQLite)

rqlite for pyDAL

From the rqlite docs:

rqlite is an easy-to-use, lightweight, distributed relational database, which uses SQLite as its storage engine.

See their GitHub page for more info about deploying and managing an rqlite cluster, interacting with the cli or the HTTP API directly.

Example usage:

from pydal import DAL

# required to register rqlite://
import pydal_rqlite

db = DAL("rqlite://localhost", folder="database")
# or with basic auth/custom port/https:
# db = DAL("rqlite://user:pass@localhost:4001", folder="database", driver_args={'https': True})

db should now support the same features the sqlite3 driver for pyDAL does.

Limitations

As specified in the docs of pyrqlite (which is the driver behind this adapter):

Transactions are not supported

This is due to the fact rqlite does not really support transactions. db.commit() and db.rollback() will not raise an exception, but do nothing instead (pass).
