[google-appengine] Re: 3 feature requests
The Django sitemaps framework does not work on GAE.

Validation rules like serverside reg ex defining allowed phonenumber etc. and related layout details e.g. a red box around any form parameter not passing validation are related details to which I look for a lean solution. The advantage of customizing instead of the framework is more control over details and the disadvantage is that there's no autogeneration of markup as with the framework.

[google-appengine] Re: Model field value choices - can the list be generated dynamically?
Hi Alex/David, Alternatively, you can override the __unicode__ method of your model: class SizeOption(db.Model): code = db.StringProperty(required = True) html = db.StringProperty(required = True, multiline = True) def __unicode__(self): return self.code You can use a custom ModelChoiceField and override its Nice one! The alternative is to define a __str__ method on your SizeOption class, since that is what is used to render the options in the default label_from_instance implementation. your suggestions to override methods worked a treat. Overriding at the Model level suits me very well as it gives me flexibility. One final question (I hope): what is the difference in overriding the __unicode__ and __str__ methods?

[google-appengine] Re: How-to display feeds in App Engine pages
Google search digs up lots of tutorials, tips and tricks - feed parsing and display is pretty popular. Here's a tutorial that gently guides you through getting started by building a feed parser that uses Django templates.

[google-appengine] Iterating through XML with django templates
Hi,
I have run into difficulties when trying to access certain parts of
Picasa's XML from django templates. For example, a list of tags for a
photograph can be found under a media:keywords tag. However, when I
try to parse something like {{ photo.media:group.media:keywords }} in
a template, I am getting an error. I suspect that a : symbol is
treated the same as . and the parser is trying to split a tag's name
in two.
Has anyone came accross the same problem?
Martin

[google-appengine] Re: how best to represent a directed graph w/ 25K nodes? (for path planning)
There are 312 487 500 potential paths (25K choose 2) and edge weights are variable-- the cost function is determined by user-configurable multipliers. So precomputing all paths in advance isn't feasible, unless I'm misunderstanding what you mean.

[google-appengine] Re: how best to represent a directed graph w/ 25K nodes? (for path planning)
So if I shard my graph into 3 parts, my main class can store them as class variables and they'll persist across requests? That would be great. But will I run into quota problems holding 3M data in memory? (Assuming low overhead otherwise, and only 100ish requests per day) Also, if I did it that way, is there a good way to export the sharded graph data to BigTable for backup/inspection purposes? I guess I could schedule a cron job that hits webapp periodically to trigger export of x items, where x is however many you're allowed to write at a time. Seems inelegant though. thanks Amar On Dec 27, 5:56 pm, Robin B robi...@gmail.com wrote: Using Djikstra's shortest path algorithm, you can compute the shortest paths between all nodes in the same runtime as computing the path between any 2 nodes, so storing then querying the precomputed paths would be a good approach as mentioned above. Since there are no files in AppEngine, my first thought was to create a model for thegraphand then write a batch importer that puts all the nodes/edges into BigTable. AppEngine actually does have read-only access to the filesystem, so you could break a 3MB file into 3x1MB files, upload them along with your application files via 'appcfg', then read the files from disk at launch, cache the data in memcache or, for even faster access, in a dict global stored in local RAM which is preserved between requests.
