python-memcached

Introduction

This is a Python based API (implemented in 100% python) for communicating with the memcached distributed memory object cache daemon.

This code is based off the code written by Evan Martin of Danga. Sean Reifschneider of tummy.com, ltd. has taken over maintenance of the code.

Alternatives

Gijsbert de Haan has implemented a python extension wrapping the C libmemcached. While faster and closer matching of the features available from the daemon, it also requires building against both the Python C API and the libmemcached API.

Requirements

Python: a current version (2.0+) to work. You can get source (and binaries for selected systems) from www.python.org.
