See example below.
import pyfatcache
conn = pyfatcache.get_conn() # for specific server use get_conn(host=XXXX, port=YYYY)
conn.delete("a")
print "expect (None, None) / get %s" % (str(conn.get("a")),)
conn.set("a", "a", flags=1)
print "expect ('a', 1) / get %s" % (str(conn.get("a")),)
conn.set("a", dict(name="pyfatcache"))
print "expect ({'name': 'pyfatcache'}, 0) / get %s" % (str(conn.get("a")),)
conn.set("a", None)
print "expect (None, 0) / get %s" % (str(conn.get("a")),)
conn.close()In fact, you can run the example above via command line:
python -m pyfatcache

The library does not do much, as this is all that I need currently. If you need other features, please feel free to raise issues or, even better, implement them yourselves and submit pull requests, which are always welcome :-)
