Project description

## Walrus

![](http://media.charlesleifer.com/blog/photos/walrus-logo-0.png)

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. Rather than ask you to learn a new library, walrus subclasses and extends the popular redis-py client, allowing it to be used as a drop-in replacement. In addition to all the features in redis-py, walrus adds support for some newer commands, including full support for streams and consumer groups.

walrus consists of:

### 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.io/), and [vedis](http://vedis.symisc.net). Check the [documentation](https://walrus.readthedocs.io/en/latest/alt-backends.html) for more details.
