Pushes the objects into Redis and makes them searchable.

The idea is that you don't just have a simple key (id) value store.
The key will hold the join information in it, as the Redis keys command
lets you search keys using wildcards.

So we generate keys, by looking at the Model information, you have to mark
certain attributes as keys. Then the key is generated for each instance and
the object dict is pushed into redis.

I've tried to provide, filter, get, etc. Similar to what the django resultset
might have. The Model definition is not very refined. So more work is needed
on that.

class Vehicle(RedisModel):
    binnumber = models.CharField(max_length=250, default='', db_index=True, unique=True)
    make = models.ForeignKey(Manufacturer)
    model = models.CharField(max_length=250, default='', db_index=True, null=True, blank=True)
    color = models.CharField(max_length=250, default='', db_index=True, null=True, blank=True)
    madeon = models.DateTimeField(db_index=True)
    plant = models.ForeignKey(Plant)

    _redis_base = 'Vehicle'
    _redis_fields = ('binnumber','model','color','madeon')
    _redis_fields = ( RedisKeyAttribute(name='binnumber',key='B'),
                      RedisKeyAttribute(name='model',key='M'),
                      RedisKeyAttribute(name='color',key='C'),
                      RedisKeyAttribute(name='madeon',key='D', lambda v: v.madeon.strftime('%d:M:%m:Y:%Y:h:%H:m:%M')),
                      RedisKeyAttribute(name='plant',key='P', lambda v: v.plant.key),
                      RedisKeyAttribute(name='make',key='N', lambda v: v.make.key))


Now you should be able to do things like

To load everything
Vehicle.redis.clear()
for vehicle in Vehicle.objects.all():
    vehicle.cache()

Now....

Vehicle.redis.all()
