title: How to use Python kazoo library?
body: <p>I am planning to use Python kazoo library for Zookeeper. It's all about Python question here not zookeeper at all I guess meaning how to use Python kazoo properly..</p>
  
  <p>I am totally new to python so I have no idea how to get going and how to use kazoo to connect with zookeeper.</p>
  
  <p>This is the document I was reading to start using kazoo for Zookeeper.</p>
  
  <p><a href="http://kazoo.readthedocs.org/en/latest/install.html">http://kazoo.readthedocs.org/en/latest/install.html</a></p>
  
  <p>In that wiki, they have asked to install kazoo. And they are using some pip command for that?</p>
  
  <p>What does pip do here? And I am currently using windows so I have cygwin installed and python installed as well. I am using Python 2.7.3</p>
  
  <pre><code>host@D-SJC-00542612 ~
  $ python
  Python 2.7.3 (default, Dec 18 2012, 13:50:09)
  [GCC 4.5.3] on cygwin
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now what I did is - I copied this command exactly as it is from the above website - <code>pip install kazoo</code> and ran it on my cygwin command prompt.</p>
  
  <pre><code>host@D-SJC-00542612 ~
  $ pip install kazoo

  <p>Does it got installed properly? Now I can start writing code in python to connect with zookeeper?</p>
  
  <p>Sorry for asking all these dumb questions as I don't have any background with python so learning little bit here..</p>
  
  <p>It's all about Python question here not zookeeper at all I guess..</p>
