[google-appengine] Bulk upload specifying a key name
Hi All, How do i specify a key name when using the bulk upload tool? I am currently using WWW:: Mechanize to upload my data one row at a time but would be nice if i can use the bulk loader as i don't want to reinvent the many options available in the tool.

[google-appengine] Re: Deleting index stuck
Yes, I have read them and had even tried the vacuum_indexes procedure. It did not work, as I had mentioned in my mail. Tried it again today and they got deleted at once from my indexes. By the way, the problem is not related to exploding indexes - there were 3 new indexes of 2 to 3 properties each, all properties were string/integer properties and the data to be indexed was less than 100. I just discovered that it *might* be because one of the index definition had a non-existing property name specified. I am not going to try it again with a wrong property name in the index, to confirm the reason for the "Error" :-). But, just in case any of you face a similar problem, see if this might be the reason.

[google-appengine] Identify user from an Android Device
Hey, Quick question: Is there an easy way to "append" a users Google account/ID to a call made to the App Engine so that a user does need to login? By default, a person using an Android phone is logged into their Google account at all times, so i'm assuming there may be a elegant way of "letting the App Engine know" who is communicating with it. Is this possible? Thanks --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.

Well, the block lists that would put the App Engine machines' IPs in if Google's TOS didn't forbid spamming have the "authority" to say that and watch a large portion of the world's email servers make the email function useless to the rest of us. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.

[google-appengine] Uneven response time between connection to server to first byte sent
I don't know if this is related to only the Python version or also to the Java version, but the response time from GAE servers (Python) is very uneven. Sometimes the time from connection with the server to the first byte sent is less than a second, but sometimes the response takes several seconds between connection with the server to the first byte being sent. It doesn't depend on the datastore or some other backend it seems since it happens for pages who don't use any (application-level) backend. And the response time can be very long even after a recent (previous minute or so) fast response. I have noticed this using ordinary web browsers, and also when using tools like: http://tools.pingdom.com/?url=http://www.blabline.com&treeview=0&column=objectID&order=1&type=0&save=false Is there some kind of performance bottleneck that sets in from time to time? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.

[google-appengine] Re: different urlfetch behaviour on development and production servers: URLs with the characters: ( or )
Hello, Although I'm not sure why urllib2 resulted in successful retrieval of URLs containing braces I have since come to discover that the issue here lies not with Google App Engine but rather at dbpedia. I have since come to realize that I misdiagnosed the issue and thought I'd update this thread indicating that. If anyone is interested, the root cause seems to be a redirect (303 see other) taking place where the url being redirected to is not encoded.A direct request to the redirect URL, with encoding, retrieves the intended document.

[google-appengine] Re: Shorthand to modify model-Objects?
You can write a function that does it
def updateAttr(obj, **kwds):
if obj is None: return
for k,v in kwds.iteritems():
setattr(obj,k,v)
..
me = MyEnt.all().filter("index =", index).get()
updateAttr(me, title = title, name=name, public=False)
