JSON Object storage backed by Git & Elastic Search
Project description
Adventures in an declarative object-y thing backed by Git and using Elasticsearch as a query backend.
Usage
from elasticgit import EG
from elasticgit.models import Model, IntegerField, TextField
workspace = EG.workspace('/Users/sdehaan/Desktop/test-repo/')
workspace.setup('Simon de Haan', 'simon@praekeltfoundation.org')
"""
# The model looks like this
class Person(Model):
age = IntegerField('The Age')
name = TextField('The Name')
"""
from elasticgit.tests.base import TestPerson as Person
person1 = Person({'age': 10, 'name': 'Foo'})
workspace.save(person1, 'Saving Person 1')
person2 = Person({'age': 20, 'name': 'Bar'})
workspace.save(person2, 'Saving Person 2')
person3 = Person({'age': 30, 'name': 'Baz'})
workspace.save(person3, 'Saving Person 3')Data is now persisted in a git repository and is queryable via elasticsearch:
>>> from elasticgit import EG
>>> from elasticgit.tests.base import TestPerson as Person
>>> workspace = EG.workspace('/Users/sdehaan/Desktop/test-repo/')
>>> for person in workspace.S(Person).filter(age__gte=20):
... print person.name, person.age
...

We’ve followed the example of Apache Avro when it comes to schema evolution. Avro compatible schemas can be generated from the command line.
Model definitions can be rebuilt from Avro JSON schema files.
A sample model file:
class TestFallbackPerson(Model):
age = IntegerField('The Age')
name = TextField('The name', fallbacks=[
SingleFieldFallback('nick'),
SingleFieldFallback('obsolete'),
])
nick = TextField('The nickname', required=False)
obsolete = TextField('Some obsolete field', required=False)Generating the Avro spec file
$ python -m elasticgit.tools dump-schema \
> elasticgit.tests.base.TestFallbackPerson > avro.json
$ python -m elasticgit.tools load-schema avro.json > models.pyThe generated model file:
# NOTE:
#
# This is an automatically generated Elasticgit Model definition
# from an Avro schema. Do not manually edit this file unless you
# absolutely know what you are doing.
#
# timestamp: 2014-10-14T18:51:23.916194
# namespace: elasticgit.tests.base
# type: record
# name: TestFallbackPerson
#
from elasticgit import models
class TestFallbackPerson(models.Model):
name = models.TextField(u"""The name""", fallbacks=[models.SingleFieldFallback('nick'),models.SingleFieldFallback('obsolete'),])
age = models.IntegerField(u"""The Age""")
obsolete = models.TextField(u"""Some obsolete field""")
_version = models.ModelVersionField(u"""Model Version Identifier""")
nick = models.TextField(u"""The nickname""")
uuid = models.TextField(u"""Unique Identifier""")We’re using ConfModel’s fallbacks feature and encode this in Avro’s Schema as aliases. This allows you to fall back to older names for fields:
>>> TestFallbackPerson({'obsolete': 'oldest name', 'age': 10}).name
'oldest name'
>>> TestFallbackPerson({'nick': 'older name', 'age': 10}).name
'older name'
>>> TestFallbackPerson({'name': 'current name', 'age': 10}).name
'current name'Release history Release notifications | RSS feed
