Unfortunately that does seem to be the way the code ends up looking. In fact,
one gotcha I've noticed is that obj.exists() will be False when
obj.has_siblings() is True. So, you'd probably want to swap your ifs around,
like:
obj = bucket.get("mykey")
if obj.has_siblings():
# do conflict resolution
elif obj.exists():
obj.set_data(data)
else:
obj = bucket.new("mykey", data=data)
obj.store() # Also note here that return_body=True by default, and even if you
specify return_body=False, the http transport actually ignores this! I have an
outstanding pull request on github which fixes this.
At the SF Riak Meetup a couple weeks ago, the Yammer guys complained about the
client library support for Scala / Java. And the Python library leaves much to
be desired too. It is on github, though, so we should all feel free to
contribute to it and make it better.
