You will need to create a Folder entity It will need to know it's children, and you will need to support some form of url traversability to walk the folder heirarchy.
I am doing that with zope3 components on gae Django doesn't normally do url traversing, but has a regex match to method Do you really need a folder heirarchy, have you gone down that path because you are just trying to replicate a filesystem, with out really needing those semantics ? If you really want this sort of functionality you might want to look at repoze.bfg it is just been made useable under gae (and is zope 3 based though much simpler) and does support inherintly the notion of url traversal over an object model/graph Rgds T On May 6, 6:34 am, Shedokan <shedok...@gmail.com> wrote: > I am porting my WebOS(Shedokan OS) to python from php so I can use it > og GAE and I came to the stage where I need to read and write files. > > And after a lot of searching I found out that I cannot create files or > write to files. > here is my code: > > from google.appengine.ext import db > > class File(db.Model): > filename = db.StringProperty(multiline=False) > filedata = db.BlobProperty > date = db.DateTimeProperty(auto_now_add=True) > > def createFile(fileName, content): > if fileName=='' or content=='': > return > file = File() > file.filedata = content > file.filename = fileName > file.put() > > def getFile(fileName): > > if fileName=='': > return > return db.GqlQuery('SELECT * FROM File WHERE filename= :1',fileName) > > any way to make this work with a folder structure? > > also I want to note that I started learning python just about 3 days > ago, so I think I'm a begginer. > > thanks. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
