Thus for y = f(x), y will be stored +in cache[x] (e.g. {x:y}). + +klepto provides both standard and “safe” caching, +where “safe” caches are slower but can recover from +hashing errors. klepto is intended to be used for +distributed and parallel computing, where several of the +keymaps serialize the stored objects. Caches and archives +are intended to be read/write accessible from +different threads and processes. klepto enables a user to +decorate a function, save the results to a file or database +archive, close the interpreter, start a new session, and +reload the function and it’s cache. + +optional requirements: + +h5py, >=2.8.0 +pandas, >=0.17.0 +sqlalchemy, >=1.4.0 +jsonpickle, >=0.9.6 +cloudpickle, >=0.5.2 + |
