to install this dialect run::
$ pip install -r ./requirements.txt
$ python ./setup.py install
To start using this dialect::
from sqlalchemy import create_engine
engine = create_engine('monetdb:///demo:', echo=True)
If you don't want to install this library (for example during development) add this folder to your PYTHONPATH and register this dialect with SQLAlchemy::
from sqlalchemy.dialects import registry
registry.register("monetdb", "sqlalchemy_monetdb", "MDBDialect")
to test run::
$ ./test_suite.py
note: you need to have nose and mock installed::
$ pip install nose mock
This is based on Matt Harrison's earlier MonetDB dialect for SA from here: http://www.sqlalchemy.org/trac/ticket/874#no1.
