Cormoran

Cormoran is a fast and lightweight Python persistence framework. Its main goal is to provide a fast and easy abstraction layer on top of various database banckends.

Installation

You can install the latest stable release from PyPI using pip or easy_install as follows

$ pip install cormoran

Also you can install and use the latest development code from GitHub using pip.

$ pip install -e git+git://github.com/jaimegildesagredo/cormoran.git

Usage

This is a simple Cormoran usage example. The commented code comes from a sample ToDo application using Cormoran. You can get the entire source code here: https://github.com/jaimegildesagredo/todo

from cormoran import * # Imports the framework

store = Store(connect('sqlite:///:memory:')) # Connects to a in-memory SQLite database

# Defines the model
class Task(Persistent):
    summary = StringField()
    done = BooleanField(default=False)

# Adds a new item and commits
store.add(Task(summary='foo'))
store.commit()

Testing

To run the test suite you need to install some dependencies. For this I recommend you to use a Python virtualenv.

$ cd cormoran
$ virtualenv env
$ source env/bin/activate
$ pip install nose pydoubles pyhamcrest

And now you can run the tests using nose.

$ nosetests
