Hi Nick, If you're happy to use a Python local client, you can do the following:
- Create a Python app.yaml with the same app_id as your Java app, but a different major version. - Install the remote_api mapping in the app.yaml - Deploy the Python app to App Engine - When you initialize remote_api with ConfigureRemoteDatastore, pass the parameter server="majorversion.latest.myapp.appspot.com" (substituting majorversion and latest as appropriate). You can now access your Java app's datastore via Python Remote API. -Nick Johnson On Tue, Aug 4, 2009 at 3:19 AM, Nick_Zaillian<nzaill...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Just to clarify: I wouldn't mind working in Python on the local end of > things if that were necessary (because that would just mean rewriting > one or two routines).
