The Chronicles of Redict

Represent Python dictionaries in Redis.

Introduction

At the moment Redict is far, far from complete. It has basic functionality for reading/writing a dict to redis while keeping its structure in place. It works for dicts and lists inside dicts recursively.

For example:

{
    'key': 'value', 
    'dictionary': {
        'key1': 'value1',
        'key2': 'value2'
    },
    'list': [
        'item1',
        'item2'
    ]
})

will be represented in redis by:

 1) "key"
 2) "value"
 3) "dictionary:key1"
 4) "value1"
 5) "dictionary:key2"
 6) "value2"
 7) "list:0"
 8) "item1"
 9) "list:1"
10) "item2"
