Python bindings for JLog

Python bindings for JLog

This package contains Python bindings for JLog. JLog is a pure C, very simple durable message queue with multiple subscribers and publishers (both thread and multi-process safe).

Building and installation

To build and install this Python package, you will first need to build and install JLog itself. After you have done this, follow these steps:

First, edit the include_dirs and library_dirs fields of the :file:`setup.cfg` file in this directory to point to the directories that contain the library and header file for your JLog installation.

Second, run this command:

python setup.py install

If you want to develop this package, instead of this last command do:

python setup.py build_ext --inplace
python setupegg.py develop

This will build the C extension inplace and then put this directory on your sys.path. With this setup you only have to run python setup.py build_ext --inplace each time you change the .pyx files.

Performance

Roughly 175,000 writes per second, and 700,000 reads per second.
