Saving

If a PYNDatabase object is initialized with a dictionary, it will update the original dictionary object as changes are made. Otherwise, you must call PYNDatabase.save() (unless autosave is set to True). The save method also has a file flag, which allows for easily saving to another file. The file type can be changed between pickled (default) and plaintext by setting the filetype paramater of the main class.class (see Pickling).

Command usage:

PYNDatabase.save()

Examples:

Basic usage:

from pyndb import PYNDatabase
db = PYNDatabse('filename.pyndb')
db.set('hello', 'world')
db.save() # <--

Saving an existing dictionary to file using the file flag

from pyndb import PYNDatabase
dictionary_obj = {'hello': 'world'}
db = PYNDatabse(dictionary_obj)
db.set('hello', 'world')
db.save(file='filename.pyndb') # <--
