pyhlld

pyhlld provides a Python client library to interface with hlld servers.

Features

• Provides a simple API for using hlld
• Command pipelining to reduce latency

Install

Download and install from source:

python setup.py install

Example

Using pyhlld is very simple:

from pyhlld import HlldClient

# Create a client to a local hlld server, default port
client = HlldClient("localhost")

# Get or create the foobar set
foobar = client.create_set("foobar")

# Set a key and check the size
foobar.add("Test Key!")
assert int(foobar.info()["size"]) == 1

Using pipelining is straightforward as well:

from pyhlld import HlldClient

# Create a client to a local hlld server, default port
client = HlldClient("localhost")

# Get or create the pipe set
pipe = client.create_set("pipe").pipeline()

# Chain multiple add commands
results = pipe.add("foo").add("bar").add("baz").execute()
assert results[0]
assert results[1]
assert results[2]
