## Walrus


Lightweight Python utilities for working with [Redis](http://redis.io).

The purpose of [walrus](https://github.com/coleifer/walrus) is to make working with Redis in Python a little easier by wrapping rich objects in Pythonic containers. walrus consists of:

• Wrappers for the Redis object types:

  • [Hash](https://walrus.readthedocs.io/en/latest/containers.html#hashes)

  • [List](https://walrus.readthedocs.io/en/latest/containers.html#lists)

  • [Set](https://walrus.readthedocs.io/en/latest/containers.html#sets)

  • [Sorted Set](https://walrus.readthedocs.io/en/latest/containers.html#sorted-sets-zset)

  • [HyperLogLog](https://walrus.readthedocs.io/en/latest/containers.html#hyperloglog)

  • [Array](https://walrus.readthedocs.io/en/latest/containers.html#arrays) (custom type)

• A simple [Cache](https://walrus.readthedocs.io/en/latest/cache.html) implementation that exposes several decorators for caching function and method calls.

• Lightweight data [Model](https://walrus.readthedocs.io/en/latest/models.html) objects that support persisting structured information and performing complex queries using secondary indexes.

### Models

Persistent structures implemented on top of Hashes. Supports secondary indexes to allow filtering on equality, inequality, ranges, less/greater-than, and a basic full-text search index. The full-text search features a boolean search query parser, porter stemmer, stop-word filtering, and optional double-metaphone implementation.

### Found a bug?


Please open a [github issue](https://github.com/coleifer/walrus/issues/new) and I will try my best to fix it!

### Alternative Backends

Walrus also can integrate with the Redis-like databases [rlite](https://github.com/seppo0010/rlite), [ledis](http://ledisdb.com/), and [vedis](http://vedis.symisc.net). Check the [documentation](https://walrus.readthedocs.io/en/latest/alt-backends.html) for more details.
