[google-appengine] Can't remember the name of this startup
A couple of years ago someone presented a nice app hosted on App Engine that I'm trying to remember now. The developer was based on Japan, I think. The app was a web authoring tool for documentation, classes, presentations, manuals etc -- it was a simple elearning authoring tool. It had a js-based editor to create and organize pages, and select themes, and so on. I don't want a tool similar to the one I described; I want to remember what was the name of that site. Any takers? :) cheers, rodrigo -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google App Engine group.

Re: RE: [google-appengine] Re: Party like it's 1970? auto_now_add=True
Just FYI, DateProperty, TimeProperty and DatetimeProperty all store the same type in the datastore: a datetime representation. The difference is that the first two are stored incomplete (on DateProperty, time will be 00:00 00:00, on TimeProperty, date will be 1970-01-01), and that's what you see in the datastore. It's hard to justify using DateProperty or TimeProperty since the storage space used and underlying type are the same, so I end always using DatetimeProperty. -- rodrigo -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google App Engine group.

Wouldn't it make more sense to store the id (assuming not using key_name) of the entity. After all, if the Kind is known, one can easily generate the full key based on that. And with a reference property it actually stores the _entire_ key (very long!). Storing the key or the full path is the only way to retrieve *any* entity. Why? Because you can't generate a full key for an entity that has ancestors using only a key name or id. You need the full path of ancestor entities. The key is the full path encoded. For simple and common cases (entity with no ancestor), you can surely store simply the id or key name. But you have to keep in mind that this won't work for any possible entity (if you store an entity with ancestor, you can't retrieve it back). -- rodrigo -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google App Engine group.

ignore my previous post. here's a solution that does exactly what your

def get_key_name_from_reference_property(self, prop_name):
key = getattr(self.__class__, prop_name).get_value_for_datastore(self)
return db.Key(key).key_name()
then, you simply call it passing the ReferenceProperty name.
class MyModel(db.Model):
some_other_entity = db.ReferenceProperty()
entity = MyModel.get(...)
referenced_key_name =
entity.get_key_name_from_reference_property('some_other_entity')
that's it.

[google-appengine] Re: Entities disappearing from index
this happened again today. my user reported: i can find it and access it after a google search, but it is not listed in the page. he referred to another entity that disappeared from the index. when accessing the entity's page linked in google, the system uses the entity id, so that's ok. but when listing entities, it uses a query which should include the entity in the results, but the entity was not included. the sad conclusion is that indexes are still not reliable. :-( -- rodrigo --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google App Engine group.

[google-appengine] Entities disappearing from index
Hi, Last week two of my users complained about entities that disappeared. I searched for the records using a simple query with no composite index and found them, and confirmed that they were not returned by a composite index that should return them. The index was up and running, and as far as I know the entities disappeared randomly. I re-saved the same entities, and they appeared in the index again. I have no idea if other entities are missing from the index, because I only know if someone reports it, which is sad and a bit scary. Question is: in which cases can this happen? Which tricks can we use to check/ensure that an index is complete? thanks, rodrigo --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google App Engine group.

[google-appengine] Cursors for continuing results?
Hey guys. I saw this in the roadmap: Cursors for continuing results of Datastore queries past the 1000 entity limit. This made me think this would be *the* thing we need for a pagination api - not only we could resume a query from the 1000th result, but also from any result - so, we could easily get query bookmarks (the encoded cursor or something) to fetch other results. Anybody knows more about how they will work?

supposing you have a file 'my_file.txt' in your root app dir, you just do:

f.close()
for files inside directories, prepend it with the directory name:

[google-appengine] Re: How to translate an application running on GAE?
Now, anwering some other questions.
- I suppose that the .po / .mo files that open source projects
traditionally use can not be used in the App Engine world?
Yes, you can use those files with gettext functions. You'll probably
need to wrap those functions and write some utilities to make it
easier to use - but you don't need to do that because there are
excellent libraries that have done it - Babel is the most known in the
python world (I actually don't know any other).
- Would you have various template files for each languages (like a
contact.en.html, contact.fr.html, contact.nl.html, etc.) and use the
appropriate file depending on the language that has been detected from
the browser header?
No! You would use one template, and have the strings wrapped by a
translation function. The convention is to use a function name _.
Like:
{{ _(This is my string - I'll translate it later, and if not it'll be
in English forever.) }}
There are issues you'll find, like how to handle singular/plural and
string replacements, but existing solutions cover that.
- Would you use a single template file, but pass it the strings one by
one that you would retrieve from the datastore (ouch, just writing
this solution hurts!)
Absolutelly no. The strings are stored in a .po file, which you
compile into a .mo file. This if you go for the widely used gettext.
Note: if you execute the following command from inside the GAE dev
server folder:
find | xargs -i grep -iH i18n \{\}
you will see that a lot of files contain the string i18n, and that all
are related to django. Does that mean that we could use standard
Django internationalization techniques, or is it just that Google
forgot to remove those files?
I tried to use Django's i18n. Unfortunately Django is too tied to
itself and that library is not reusable outside of Django. Fortunately
later I found a standalone, reusable, well written one: Babel. It
works very well.

There's no difference. Both key_name's and id's are used internally to
build a Key from path, which is then used to get the entity. So, when
you do Model.get_by_id(1) or Model.get_by_key_name('a'), you're
actually doing Model.get(Key.from_path('Model', 1)) or
Model.get(Key.from_path('Model', 'a')) - essentially the same thing.

[google-appengine] When will we trust indexes?
Hi all, I'm facing an alarming, critical, impeditive issue migrating an app with a medium sized database to app engine. Serving indexes return disordered results, or return no results when they should return something. Working indexes stop to work properly, making the app run as if entities that are there are not. This obviously will potentially break all my data, in a way that I can't even know if it is broken - a disaster, or a maintenance nightmare. We deal with lots of restrictions and limits, and that's all fine for me. But how can we deal with datastore when it starts to return nothing for results that exist (and are supposed to be indexed), or return results in an order that makes no sense (again, indexed ones)? Inaccurate, broken indexes should never be serving. When can we expect this to be fixed?

[google-appengine] Efficient paging using __key__ instead of a dedicated unique property [part 2]
Hi guys,
I rewrote the pagination class originated from Ryan's idea [1]. In
case you missed it, it supports efficient paging in any query, on any
schema, purely in user land, without requiring extra properties or
other schema changes. This means that no extra property is required
for an index, and that you can have efficient pagination for any
existing Model.
The class wraps db.Query to build bookmarkable queries and resume from
query bookmarks. A quick example of how to use it:
# Get the encoded bookmark from request.
bookmark = request.GET['bookmark']
# Build a paginated query.
query = PagerQuery(ModelClass).filter('foo ', 'bar') \
.filter('baz =', 'ding') \
.order('foo')
# Fetch results for the current page and bookmarks for previous and next
# pages.
prev, results, next = query.fetch(10, bookmark)
# If 'prev' and/or 'next' are returned, use them to create links to the
# previous and/or next pages.
http://localhost:8080/?bookmark={{ prev }}
http://localhost:8080/?bookmark={{ next }}
And here is the code:
http://bitbucket.org/moraes/appengine/src/4f7036301b52/pager.py
let me know of any issues. :-)

[google-appengine] Re: Shorthand to modify model-Objects?
I use a 'populate' method in a base model class. Slightly different
from the previously posted function because it'll only update values
of existing properties.
def populate(self, **kargs):
properties = self.properties()
for key, value in kargs.iteritems():
if key in properties:
setattr(self, key, value)
I use it mostly to update an entity using data from a form. For example:
entity = MyModel.get_by_key_name('my_key_name')
entity.populate(**processed_form_data)
entity.put()

[google-appengine] Re: Role Based Access Control in GAE?
Hello pbr, I implemented a ACL system a couple of days ago, ported from a system I use in php. The idea is similar to what you described - access rules are defined for an user or can be grouped in roles. Users can have one or more roles, and individual access rules can override or extend these roles. Here's a quick paste: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/110555/ This is just a storage system and interface to check permissions. You need to tie it to the objects you want to restrict access (handlers and/or models) using decorators or other methods. Let me know if it helps or if you have ideas to improve it. -- rodrigo On Mar 29, 1:16 am, wrote: 1) I have a simple application that can be accessed by multiple users 2) The users are combined into groups (overlapping is possible) 3) Privileges (read/write/delete) are assigned to groups 4) Groups are then assigned to view/edit data I have started to build out this functionality by creating Users, Groups, Privileges models and then setting up pseudo-foreign key relationships to them.

you don't need a transaction for that. actually, it seems that you got

what you need is to add a link so that users can login and then, after

in your app:
template_values = {}
template_values['login_url'] = users.get_login_url()

Firstly, Do these mappings also support regular expression mappings?
They *are* regular expressions. That's how those expressions are evaluated.
Secondly, How can I use dynamic mappings (like instead of
http://example.com/article?id=20 -- http://example.com/article/20)?
('/article/([\d]+)', Article)
With the above rule, the matched values are passed to the handler, in
order. So in Article you'll have the method get(self, article_id),
which receives the article id from the matched rule.
[and is there any advantage to doing query strings in this fashion?]
Well, sometimes query strings are more convenient, but in many times
you would want to certify that only url's with minimally valid
parameters (in the above example, an integer) will match. With ?id=20,
you'll have to check if an id is passed in the handler method, *after*
the dispatch process. It's also a matter of aesthetics and, most
important, how your handlers are organized.

It simply passes all values captured by the regexp. Your handler

hey, from the I/O Session [1] i can see how to create pagination based on indexes that doesn't rely on database offsets. but the example is plain simple and I am intrigued in how to do some more complex pagination in a app-engine way. in the I/O Session example, you fetch 1 extra record to know if you have a next page, and based on that and the current page's pagination data, you can create previous or next links. now, what if we want to create a pager with links to a range of pages (the common pager we use everywhere: previous 1 2 3 4 next )? to know how many items we have to paginate we can set a sharded counter (using the awesome class from our fellows here :), but how to fetch the data related to the requested page in a consistent way? or, better, how to keep the index consistent? let's say i'm displaying 20 items per page, so have the links: * page 2: /my-page?start=20 * page 3: /my-page?start=40 * etc. now, if I delete items 23, 24 and 25, my page 2 will have 17 items instead of 20. to avoid this, I'd have to rebuild the index when items are removed, which is undesired. do you have other ideas? i'd want to keep it efficient and relativelly simple, and maybe i'm just trying to do what i should not try to do. what do you think? -- rodrigo [1] http://sites.google.com/site/io/building-scalable-web-applications-with-google-app-engine --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google App Engine group.

Because the ancestor relationship also establishes a one-to-many relationship, should I remove CommentOnFoo's foo property (ReferenceProperty to Foo)? I think it's redundant. since you define Foo as parent of CommentOnFoo, it'd be redundant indeed to have it as a property. regarding performance, the docs says: Entity groups do not have a significant impact on the speed of queries., but improve the performance of creating and updating data.

[google-appengine] localization recipe
hey. anyone has a recipe to implement localization in webapp? i created gettext files using django-admin.py makemessages / compilemessages. now i was looking at django utils/translation but the infrastructure to display locale strings seems too specific and with tons of dependencies, and I am not using django. do we have a more simple solution? -- rodrigo --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google App Engine group.

Obviously there are some issues. you'll have some issues using a django app as it is because it initializes stuff that won't work inside app engine. AppEngineHelperForDjango tries to make it smooth by removing/overriding those unsupported stuff. you can very well import just the django modules for form generation/validation and use them; they are independent enough to be used without the whole django, afaik. -- rodrigo --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google App Engine group.

I think this is a common concern. I don't want my app offline because I'm exceeding limits. Instead, I'd like to pay to be allowed to exceed limits - and it is on Google plans to give us this option (from the roadmap: Billing: developers can pay for more resource usage).
