moecache is a pure python client for memcached. Its binary protocol and shading strategy are compatible with EnyimMemcached (a C# memcached client), so that you are can read/write an EnyimMemcached-managed memcached deployment in Python.

The project is forked from memcache_client, a minimal and robust python memcached client from Mixpanel, Inc.

The API looks very similar to the other memcached clients:

import moecache

with moecache.Client([("127.0.0.1", 11211), ("127.0.0.1", 11213)],
                     timeout=1, connect_timeout=5) as mc:
    mc.set("some_key", "Some value")
    value = mc.get("some_key")
    mc.delete("another_key")
