Thanks for this. I've just started using it in my application it works just fine and is quite simple and easy to use!

I just stumbled across the documentation of Lock in redis.py: https://github.com/andymccurdy/redis-py#locks (after already getting started with python-redis-lock, but that's my problem) and wondering what the advantages of python-redis-lock might be.

Maybe something about this topic could be added to the documentation?

Ah, sorry, it's in the readme...
