An asynchronous Python driver for the Mongo database, based on Twisted.
The txmongo package is an alternative to the original pymongo
shipped with the Mongo database.
Because the original pymongo package has it's own connection pool and
blocking low-level socket operations, it is hard to fully implement
network servers using the Twisted framework.
Instead of deferring database operations to threads, now it's possible
to do it asynchronously, as easy as using the original API.
You need setuptools
in order to get txmongo installed.
Just run python setup.py install
There are some examples in the examples/ directory.
