Beaker is a web session and general caching library that includes WSGI middleware for use in web applications. . As a general caching library, Beaker can handle storing for various times any Python object that can be pickled with optional back-ends on a fine-grained basis. . Features: * Fast, robust performance * Multiple reader/single writer lock system to avoid duplicate simultaneous cache creation * Cache back-ends include dbm, file, memory, memcached, and database (using SQLAlchemy for multiple-db vendor support) * Signed cookies to prevent session hijacking/spoofing * Cookie-only sessions to remove the need for a database or file backend (ideal for clustered systems) * Extensible Container object to support new back-ends * Caches can be divided into namespaces (to represent templates, objects, etc.) then keyed for different copies * Create functions for automatic call-backs to create new cache copies after expiration * Fine-grained toggling of back-ends, keys, and expiration per Cache object |
