beanstalkc
==========

beanstalkc is a simple beanstalkd client library for Python. [beanstalkd][] is
a fast, distributed, in-memory workqueue service.

beanstalkc depends on [PyYAML][], but there are ways to avoid this dependency.
See Appendix A of the tutorial for details.

beanstalkc is pure Python, and is compatible with [eventlet][] and [gevent][].

[beanstalkd]: http://kr.github.com/beanstalkd/
[eventlet]: http://eventlet.net/
[gevent]: http://www.gevent.org/
[pyyaml]: http://pyyaml.org/

Usage
-----

Here is a short example, to illustrate the flavor of beanstalkc:

>>> import beanstalkc
>>> beanstalk = beanstalkc.Connection(host='localhost', port=11300)
>>> beanstalk.put('hey!')
1
>>> job = beanstalk.reserve()
>>> job.body
'hey!'
>>> job.delete()

For more information, see the tutorial (in `TUTORIAL.mkd`), which will explain
most everything.
