Configure MapStore from Python Client

[Onur Sencan]

Hi,

While looking for the possibilities to use the Hazelcast in my new project, I cannot find a solution to configure DB to retrieve values if it is not existed in IMDG server and store the values. I have encountered examples only in Java with creating a child class of MapStore but not able to access hazelcast.config.MapStoreConfig or com.hazelcast.core.MapStore 

I can read/write through the serialization wrappers, but I don't think it would be the practical solution in this architecture.  

In short, I wonder if is it possible to configure MapStore from python client and if it is not what is the solution to use a DB (in my case MongoDB) to read, load, restore data.

Thanks in advance,

(Sorry for if it is a duplicate post)

Hi Onur,

It is not possible to configure the MapStore from Python client right now. MapStore can be configured through dynamic configuration or user code deployment from the clients but neither of these features are implemented for the Python client yet. 

For the time being, you can configure and start your Hazelcast member with your MapStore configuration as shown in the reference manual and code samples and use that map as it is from the Python client
