This package started out as a fork of fiorix/mongo-async-python-driver. However, to implement the more difficult features of a MongoDB driver such as failover, it was nearly completely rewritten.

The primary features of this rewrite include:

• reconfiguration of protocol connections upon master change.
• failover to new master upon AutoReconnect failure.
• depend on pymongo to avoid in tree pymongo driver to avoid drift.
• Use python bson driver rather than in tree version.
• tries to be careful about building and parsing protocol strings to improve throughput.
• use namedtuple for message structures.

The collection, database, and other higher level structures were left unchanged.

You can use setuptools to install this txmongo fork.

sudo python setup.py install

Packing for debian exists in debian/, you can build yourself a package (remember to update debian/changelog) if you make changes.

dpkg-buildpackage -b

Then look for the package in your home directory.

rpmbuild -bb python-txmongo.spec

You might need to download Source0 from the .spec and place it in rpmbuild/SOURCES first.

If this fork provides the features you need, feel free to add to it. I'll try to be responsive to merge requests.
