Is there something like mongodb/couchdb that does the sqlite philiosophy of an in-process database that's just saved out to a file?

I need to convert a python program to store some data in a database and I'd rather not deal with SQL.

I mean I could always build a small wrapper around an SQLite database I stuff JSON into

but I'd rather not have to

@foone Would rocksDB work for what you want?
