Is there a reason why you can't call a different request handler
method based on the request URL's _method parameter. For example, this
seems like it would work:
class MyRequestHandler(webapp.RequestHandler):
def post(self):
if self.request.get('_method') == 'PUT':
self.put()
else:
# Continue with an actual POST.
def put(self):
# Idempotent PUT logic.
Happy coding,
Jeff
