        Overview
        --------
        
        ``jaraco.modb`` is a small, pure-Python library for persisting Python
        objects to `MongoDB <http://www.mongodb.org/>`_.
        
        ``jaraco.modb`` is written by Jason R. Coombs.  It is licensed under an
        `MIT-style permissive license
        <http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php>`_.
        
        You can install it with ``easy_install jaraco.modb`` or grab the source
        code from the `mercurial repository
        <http://bitbucket.org/jaraco/jaraco.modb>`_.
        
        Usage
        -----
        
        ``jaraco.modb`` facilitates using `jsonpickle` to produce MongoDB-friendly
        representations of pickleable Python objects for easy storage in a MongoDB
        database.
        
        The jsonpickle module requires initialization to use the backends supplied
        by jaraco.modb, so the application must first call `init()`::
        
            import jaraco.modb
            jaraco.modb.init()
        
        Thereafter, one can simply encode and decode Python objects to MongoDB
        BSON-friendly representations::
        
            class MyObject(object):
                def __init__(self, val):
                    self.val = val
        
            import pymongo
            mongo_collection = pymongo.Connection().mydb.mycollection
            val = MyObject(3)
            # save the object to the DB
            id = mongo_collection.save(jaraco.modb.encode(val))
            # retrieve the object from the DB
            new_val = jaraco.modb.decode(mongo_collection.find_one(id))
            assert isinstance(new_val, MyObject)
            assert new_val.val == 3
