• Nested class based data models (schemas).

• Schema migrations, with custom and backwards migration support.
• Three tiered data storage: Redis > Solr > Riak (configurable)
  • Redis based caching of GET requests.

See Tests section.

• Do not use Protocol Buffers in development, it doesn't give proper descriptions for server side errors.

Tests needs a locally running Riak instance at port 8098.

Create a bucket type named models and activate it with following commands:

./riak-admin bucket-type create models ./riak-admin bucket-type activate models

You need to define the following environmental variable to run tests.

PYOKO_SETTINGS='tests.settings'

to create schemas run command:

python manage.py update_schema --bucket <model_name>,<model_name>,...

py.test command runs all the tests from tests directory.
