<hr class="docutils" id="index-0" />
<p>A “shelf” is a persistent, dictionary-like object. The difference with “dbm”
databases is that the values (not the keys!) in a shelf can be essentially
arbitrary Python objects — anything that the <a class="reference internal" href="pickle.html#module-pickle" title="pickle: Convert Python objects to streams of bytes and back."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">pickle</span></code></a> module can handle.
This includes most class instances, recursive data types, and objects containing
lots of shared sub-objects. The keys are ordinary strings.</p>
<dl class="function">
<dt id="shelve.open">

<dd><p>Open a persistent dictionary. The filename specified is the base filename for
the underlying database. As a side-effect, an extension may be added to the
filename and more than one file may be created. By default, the underlying
database file is opened for reading and writing. The optional <em>flag</em> parameter
has the same interpretation as the <em>flag</em> parameter of <a class="reference internal" href="dbm.html#dbm.open" title="dbm.open"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">dbm.open()</span></code></a>.</p>
<p>By default, version 3 pickles are used to serialize values. The version of the
pickle protocol can be specified with the <em>protocol</em> parameter.</p>
<p>Because of Python semantics, a shelf cannot know when a mutable
persistent-dictionary entry is modified. By default modified objects are
written <em>only</em> when assigned to the shelf (see <a class="reference internal" href="#shelve-example"><span class="std std-ref">Example</span></a>). If the
optional <em>writeback</em> parameter is set to <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">True</span></code>, all entries accessed are also
cached in memory, and written back on <a class="reference internal" href="#shelve.Shelf.sync" title="shelve.Shelf.sync"><code class="xref py py-meth docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">sync()</span></code></a> and
<a class="reference internal" href="#shelve.Shelf.close" title="shelve.Shelf.close"><code class="xref py py-meth docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">close()</span></code></a>; this can make it handier to mutate mutable entries in
the persistent dictionary, but, if many entries are accessed, it can consume
vast amounts of memory for the cache, and it can make the close operation
very slow since all accessed entries are written back (there is no way to
determine which accessed entries are mutable, nor which ones were actually
mutated).</p>
<div class="admonition note">
<p class="admonition-title">Note</p>
<p>Do not rely on the shelf being closed automatically; always call

<p class="admonition-title">Warning</p>
<p>Because the <a class="reference internal" href="#module-shelve" title="shelve: Python object persistence."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">shelve</span></code></a> module is backed by <a class="reference internal" href="pickle.html#module-pickle" title="pickle: Convert Python objects to streams of bytes and back."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">pickle</span></code></a>, it is insecure
to load a shelf from an untrusted source. Like with pickle, loading a shelf
can execute arbitrary code.</p>
</div>
<p>Shelf objects support all methods supported by dictionaries. This eases the
transition from dictionary based scripts to those requiring persistent storage.</p>
<p>Two additional methods are supported:</p>

<dd><p>Write back all entries in the cache if the shelf was opened with <em>writeback</em>
set to <a class="reference internal" href="constants.html#True" title="True"><code class="xref py py-const docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">True</span></code></a>. Also empty the cache and synchronize the persistent
dictionary on disk, if feasible. This is called automatically when the shelf
is closed with <a class="reference internal" href="#shelve.Shelf.close" title="shelve.Shelf.close"><code class="xref py py-meth docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">close()</span></code></a>.</p>

this means that (the pickled representation of) the objects stored in the

<li><p>The <a class="reference internal" href="#module-shelve" title="shelve: Python object persistence."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">shelve</span></code></a> module does not support <em>concurrent</em> read/write access to
shelved objects. (Multiple simultaneous read accesses are safe.) When a
program has a shelf open for writing, no other program should have it open for
reading or writing. Unix file locking can be used to solve this, but this
differs across Unix versions and requires knowledge about the database
implementation used.</p></li>
