PySyncObj is a python library that provides ability to sync your data between multiple servers.

• It use raft protocol for leader election and log replication.
• It supports log compaction. It use fork for copy-on-write while serializing data on disk.
• It supports in-memory and on-disk serialization. You can use in-memory mode for small data and on-disk for big one.
• No additional libraries required (you need only python2.6 or python2.7)
• Configurable event loop - it can works in separate thread with it's own event loop - or you can call onTick function inside your own one.
• Convenient interface - you can easily transform arbitrary class into a replicated one (see example below).

pip install pysyncobj

Consider you have a class that implements counter:

class MyCounter(object):
	def __init__(self):
		self.__counter = 0

	def incCounter(self):
		self.__counter += 1

	def getCounter(self):
		return self.__counter

So, to transform your class into a replicated one:

• Inherit it from SyncObj
• Initialize SyncObj with a self address and a list of partner addresses. Eg. if you have serverA, serverB and serverC and want to use 4321 port, you should use self address serverA:4321 with partners [serverB:4321, serverC:4321] for your application, running at serverA; self address serverB:4321 with partners [serverA:4321, serverC:4321] for your application at serverB; self address serverC:4321 with partners [serverA:4321, serverB:4321] for app at serverC.
• Mark all your methods that modifies your class fields with @replicated decorator. So your final class will looks like:

class MyCounter(SyncObj):
	def __init__(self):
		super(MyCounter, self).__init__('serverA:4321', ['serverB:4321', 'serverC:4321'])
		self.__counter = 0

	@replicated
	def incCounter(self):
		self.__counter += 1

	def getCounter(self):
		return self.__counter

And thats all! Now you can call incCounter on serverA, and check counter value on serverB - they will be synchronized. You can look at examples and syncobj_ut.py for more use-cases.
