  Description     : a resque clone in python

Pyres - a Resque clone

Resque is a great implementation of a job queue by the people at
github. It's written in ruby, which is great, but I primarily work in
python. So I took on the task of porting over the code to python and
PyRes was the result

Project Goals

Because of some differences between ruby and python, there are a
couple of places where I chose speed over correctness. The goal will
be to eventually take the application and make it more pythonic
without sacrificing the awesome functionality found in resque. At the
same time, I hope to stay within the bounds of the original api and
web interface.
