How to start?

$ apt-get install python-setuptools
$ apt-get install python-pip

solve the projects dependencies.

run following command to install the project dependencies.

$ python setup.py install

or download flowing packages manually:

show me the config

memcache-cloud using different config for different enviroment such as production and development. here is how it works

• a file named env.py with content like ENV="ProductionConfig" specified the enviroment.

• memcache-cloud judging from a config named 'ENV' to load the according config from a file named config.py in the root directory of the project.

  ENV="Development"
  
  class Config(object):
      HOST='0.0.0.0'
      PORT=8818
  
  class ProductionConfig(Config):
      DEBUG=False
  
  class DevelopmentConfig(Config):
      PORT=3000
      DEBUG=True
  

setup a database for playing around

1. config database in env.py.

   class DevelopmentConfig(Config):
       PORT=3000
       DEBUG=True
       DB_URI="mysql+oursql://mc:mc@localhost/mc"
   

2.run the initdb.py

```
$ python initdb.py
```
