pylibmc is a Python wrapper around the accompanying C Python extension _pylibmc, which is a wrapper around libmemcached from TangentOrg.

You have to install libmemcached separately, and have your compiler and linker find the include files and libraries.

With libmemcached installed and this package set up, the following basic usage example should work:

>>> import pylibmc
>>> mc = pylibmc.Client(["127.0.0.1:11211"])
>>> mc.set("foo", "Hello world!")
True
>>> mc.get("foo")
'Hello world!'

The API is pretty much python-memcached. Some parts of libmemcached aren’t exposed yet. I think.

Behaviors

libmemcached has ways of telling it how to behave. You’ll have to refer to its documentation on what the different behaviors do.

To change behaviors, quite simply:

>>> mc.behaviors["hash"] = "fnv1a_32"

New in version 0.4

Renamed the C module to _pylibmc, and added lots of libmemcached constants to it, as well as implemented behaviors.
