[google-appengine] Re: Morphing PHP Stream Wrappers for App Engine
Yes, I want to store the rule data in configuration.php and then on
initialization instead of the hardcoded rules I'm testing with, the rules
can be dynamically generated and registered with the wrapper.
The only problem I have with that is Joomla won't save arrays of data by
default in configuration.php - so it means either a plugin to save the data
as an array, or limiting it to X number of rules
Indeed configuration.php might be the right place for it. A custom field
type could be useful, something that serializes a set rules to json.
I think I even have something in place. Let me know and I'll send it over
to your repo.

The json format could be like:
{
URL_ENCODED_LOCAL: URL_ENCODED_GS,
}
The question mark is whether the gs folders should be only checked or also
created (api needs to be used) upon saving.
I'm mainly trying to balance my tendency to add in lots and lots of
options with keeping things simple so I can get to a release/usable
point I mean, why spend weeks adding a bunch of options I don't need
if only 2 people are using it? There doesn't seem to be a lot of interest
in deploying Joomla to GAE - it's fun for me and it's a good brain teaser
to force my mind into a coding gear.
I completely agree here. I think more people will get involved once it's
fully functional, officially mentioned on the Joomla site and maybe posted
on some good blog like http://sitepoint.com
Many developers probably don't consider GAE yet as PHP support in GAE is
still experimental and there still seem to be many bugs around.
My gut feeling is that devs will be using it for really heavy workloads
since It really has a big potential as PaaS.
I've been testing Joomla on Azure recently and would be extremely convinced
to stick on it if not the fact MySQL is provided by a 3rd party company
with scaling limitations and very harsh limits on free tier for testing (20
MB database !?), bigger options get very expensive. I'm also not really
convinced by Windows environment though it's PaaS and I shouldn't care what
it is running on.

Re: [google-appengine] GAE Static files not working locally on windows
On my Windows system running GAE Python, I found that any absolute URLs were mapped to the equivalent absolute folder on my hard drive. For example href=/static/favicon.ico is mapped to c:\static\favicon.ico I worked around this by creating a symbolic link, by issuing the following command from an administrator command prompt mklink /d \static C:\path\to\my\gae\project\static Another alternative is to ensure that your application only ever uses relative URLs.

[google-appengine] Re: Processing payments using Paypal, python SDK
My advice would be to use Stripe.com for processing payments. You'll be
amazed at how easy it is to get started AND customers don't have to leave
your site!
(I'm not associated with Stripe in any way... just using it with App Engine
and can attest to its ease of use)
I may re-add PayPal at some point (in addition to Stripe) but it's a pita
to deal with the user leaving your site, processing the ipn notifications,
and then HOPING the user hits the button to return to your site when he's
finished on PayPal. With PayPal there's no guarantee the user will return
to your site (although it's fairly likely). I've also noticed that the
initial redirect to PayPal can take a while (for the page to load). Just
my experience... I'm sure there are others that really like it.
