You can:

```auto
$ pip install asyncio-foundationdb

```

The repository is [over the rainbow](https://github.com/amirouche/asyncio-foundationdb).

It’s tested with CPython 3.5 and CPython 3.6, it should work with PyPy3 6.0.0

ChangeLog:

- 2018/09/19: v0.2.1:
  - Continous Integration, drop `async_generator` in `Transaction.get_range`
  - Coverage at 68%

- 2018/09/22: v0.3.1
  - Rename asyncio-foundationdb, the package is still named `found`
  - Fix bug where is was not possible to use `@transactional` with methods
  - Add sparky layer
  - bring back `api_version`, now you have to call it with the version of the API (currently `510`)
  - Rely on official bindings to provide `tuple` and `Subspace` as of right now depends on 5.1
  - Disable tests with CPython 3.7 because [fdb doesn’t support it](https://travis-ci.org/amirouche/found/jobs/431912201)
  - Coverage is at 80%

- 2018/09/26: v0.4.0
  - sparky: reduce disk usage
  - fix critical bug where `get_range` returned nothing in some cases
  - remove `Transaction.range` shorthand
  - add `Database.get`, `Database.set` and `Database.get_range`
  - add all atomic operations on `Transaction`

Feedback and feature request very welcomely.

I restarted work on this. I revamped the API and the branch called `rework` is 20% faster than `master` (using CPython 3.9, there is no advantage in performance for PyPy at least in terms of wall clock time)

Now is a good time if you want to contribute.
