xapiand 0.1.2

Python client for Xapiand

Python Xapiand Client

Official low-level client for Xapiand. Its goal is to provide common ground for all Xapiand-related code in Python; because of this it tries to be opinion-free and very extendable.

Installation

Install the xapiand package with pip:

pip install xapiand

Example use

Simple use-case:

>>> from datetime import datetime
>>> from xapiand import Xapiand

# by default we connect to localhost:8880
>>> client = Xapiand()

# datetimes will be serialized
>>> client.index(index="my-index", id=42, body={"any": "data", "timestamp": datetime.now()})
{'#docid': 42, '#shard': 2 '_id': 42, '_version': 1, 'any': 'data', 'timestamp': '2019-07-18T09:04:54.182665'}

# and deserialized
>>> client.get(index="my-index", id=42)
{'#docid': 42, '#shard': 2 '_id': 42, '_version': 1, 'any': 'data', 'timestamp': '2019-07-18T09:04:54.182665'}

Features

The client's features include:

• translating basic Python data types to and from msgpack
• configurable automatic discovery of cluster nodes
• persistent connections
• load balancing (with pluggable selection strategy) across all available nodes
• failed connection penalization (time based - failed connections won't be retried until a timeout is reached)
• thread safety
• pluggable architecture
