This fork has been renamed to _simpledb-dev2_ so that it does not collide with the original project.It currently supports the "2007-11-07" SimpleDB API level but has been hacked to fake support for "2009-04-15"&mdash;this has not been tested much!## Project informationsimpledb-dev2 provides a local SimpleDB server, so you can develop offline, without requiring a SimpleDB account. It has been tested on Linux, macOS and Windows.This package currently implements:* The whole "2007-11-07" REST API* Correct HTTP error responses as per the technical documentation* A large suite of tests created from the examples provided in the technical documentationIt does not implement:* The SOAP API* Authentication&mdash;signature value checking* Timestamp format and expiration checking* HTTPSTo run the simpledb-dev2 server, you'll need a working Python 2.7 installation. You can install using [pip][pip] as follows:```pip install simpledb-dev2```This will install the package and its dependencies including [web.py][web-py]. Specify the `--user` option to the `pip` command line to install for the current user only.This will create a `simpledb-dev2` script/executable on your path. You can start the simpledb-dev2 web server as follows:```simpledb-dev2 serve```This will serve the SimpleDB API on the default port of 8080. To specify an alternative port, use the `--port` option:```simpledb-dev2 serve --port 1234```If the server doesn't start, or you have other problems, it's pretty easy to run the tests and see some examples of request/response:```simpledb-dev2 test```Remember, this is a development tool, and not meant for storing or querying large amounts of data&mdash;I do not know yet how big you can get before running into issues, but I suspect that with the current storage and querying design it is not that large :o) Now that I have a base, I may start trying to see how I can improve the performance&hellip;Although this conforms to the specifications in the technical documentation, simpledb-dev2 has not been tested with every possible SDB client library, and I am looking forward to people in the OSS community trying to find bugs and peculiarities&mdash;it is after all, a work in progress!_So enjoy developing your SimpleDB applications now, not later!_## Contributing1.
