An asynchronous Python driver for the Mongo database, based on Twisted.
The txmongo package is an alternative to the original pymongo
shipped with the Mongo database.
Because the original pymongo package has it's own connection pool and
blocking low-level socket operations, it is hard to fully implement
network servers using the Twisted framework.
Instead of deferring database operations to threads, now it's possible
to do it asynchronously, as easy as using the original API.
You need setuptools
in order to get txmongo installed.
Just run python setup.py install
Generate them with make docs. You will need epydoc installed. There are some examples in the examples/ directory.
Run make env to create clean hacking environment with virtualenv. Run make to torture your code with tests and code style tools.
