py-couchdb
![Documentation Status](https://readthedocs.org/projects/pycouchdb/badge/?version=latest)
Modern pure python CouchDB Client.
Currently there are several libraries in python to connect to couchdb. Why one more?
It's very simple.
All seems not be maintained, all libraries used standard Python libraries for http requests, and are not compatible with python3.
Advantages of py-couchdb
- Use requests for http requests (much faster than the standard library)
- CouchDB 2.x and CouchDB 3.x compatible
- Also compatible with pypy.
Example:
>>> import pycouchdb
>>> server = pycouchdb.Server("http://admin:admin@localhost:5984/")
>>> server.info()['version']
'1.2.1'
