[google-appengine] 1.6.0 : logging doesn't support non ascii char

2011-11-13 Thread Sylvain
I've reopened this issue : 
http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=573

If you try : 
logging.info(é)
or logging.info(ué)

the dev_server crashes.

It was working before 1.6.0 (and it works in production).
I use python2.5.

[google-appengine] Re : Keep it short: Who is forced to leave GAE?

2011-09-02 Thread Sylvain
I've 2 apps that have a big increase, so one will be shutdown and for the 
other I will try to optimize it more.

But now, I've stopped all my current projects.

With this new pricing, developments will be driven by the costs.
I like to optimize my apps to make them better or faster but optimize them 
just to make them cheaper is a waste of time.

[google-appengine] Re: Updated App Engine Pricing FAQ!

2011-06-28 Thread Sylvain
Hi Denis,

[...]Google wants a healthy eco-system but at the same time do want to have 
deal with real businesses, but not becoming almost-free hosting.[...]

I think you're right.

But in 2008, it was pay for what you use and not pay for what you use + 
$9 / month.
No monthly fee,... it was very important for me : just pay for what I need.

So, I still don't understand what do we have with these $9.

   - An app with 0.9 GB scales and costs $0.
   - An app with 1.1 GB scales and costs $9/month

And maybe more if we can't pay in $ but in € (this issue 1999, is still 
opened)
http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=1999

I understand that free quotas should be reduced and the price (data, 
fetch,...) have to increase in order to make GAE viable.

But $9/month is too high and should be per account and not per application.
(don't know if it exists but a dev with 10 paied apps will have to pay : 
9*12*10 = 1080€ / year)

Regards.

I still love GAE, not the price :)

[google-appengine] Re: Updated App Engine Pricing FAQ!

2011-06-25 Thread Sylvain
I'm still disapointed with the new pricing.

After this new FAQ, It seems that now, there will be only minor changes

Just because of the new $9/month, I will have to shutdown 2 apps.
I've developped these app for a community of players (to help them).

Currently, it costs me $12 / year (I only use small GB), with new pricing : 
more than $9 * 12  = $108 / year /app.
I can't monetize these apps and $216 / year  is too high to continue to 
help them...

Another thing in your example (*For example, if an on-demand instance is 
serving traffic for 5 min, is then down for 4 minutes and then serving 
traffic for 3 more minutes, you will pay for (5+4+3)+15 minutes, or $0.08 / 
60 * 27 = 3.6 cents.*).
Does it mean that if my app is up for 8 minutes, I will be charge for 27 ? 
It seems disproportionate ?

Sylvain

[google-appengine] New Bulkloader vs the deprecated Loader class

2011-06-12 Thread Sylvain
Hi,

I've tried to convert my old Loader class to the new Bulkloader.
I must admit, I've failed ;)

First, I've found that with the new Bulkloader, it's very easy to donwload 
datas.
Uploading, is another story... particularly if you want to execute post 
functions on entities.

Here is a list of thing that I didn't manage to do/understand, with the 
new bulkloader

   - how to add external modules (sys.path) else all files must be in the 
   same dir.
   - how to execute a method attached to a model
   - the new bulkloader doesn't check the model (required, type, 
   default)
   - db.ComputedProperty or even DateTimeProperty with auto_add_ are not 
   executed
   - in the examples 
   (http://bulkloadersample.appspot.com/showfile/bulkloader.yaml), it adds 
   import model, I thought it was the key to make it works. But no.. I 
   don't understand why I have to that, it changes nothing but it creates Kind 
   with name models.MyModel. Bad.
   - the create_bulkloader_config function prepares the config_file for the 
   download, to upload datas you have to add all transforms import else datas 
   like (geo, list,...) are imported as string.
   - post_import_function returns a dict not an entity. It's probably better 
   for performance but more complicated
   
Most of these are easier with the Loader class.

You can find on Stackoverflow or in this group about : import_template, 
export, post_import_function, post_export_function but nothing really 
usefull in the official documentation (examples ?).

To make it works, you have to spend more time to prepare the datas than with 
the old Loader class.

Currenlty I use the loader class and the transform.py from the new 
Bulkloader.

Any other experiences with the new bulkloader ?

Hi,

Currently, I use an old Tipfy module auth :
http://code.google.com/p/tipfy-ext-auth/source/browse/tipfy/ext/auth/model.py
and protorpc for the JSON message.
http://code.google.com/p/google-protorpc/

I've created a SessionMessage(session_id, user_id) that is sent in all
JSON request/response.

For the auth part : tipfy is probably the best choice because it can
use basic auth and FaceBook, Google,...

[google-appengine] Bulkloader upload non ascii data to the local dev server

2011-06-06 Thread Sylvain
Hi,

With the new bulkloader, I can download data from the production
server to CSV (utf-8).

Now If I delete all the production datas, I can upload my CSV.
All the datas are correct.

But If I want to upload this CSV to the local dev server then all
properties that contain non ascii char (é,è,ù,ç,) are blank.

There is no warning, no log,... it fails silently.
I've tried to use lambda x: x.encode('utf-8') or other unicode
transformations, but it doesn't work.

I think there is a bug and I will fill an issue but maybe there is
solution ?

[google-appengine] Re: Troubles with Backups

2011-06-05 Thread Sylvain
Did you first generate a bulkloader.yaml with create_bulkloader_config
command ?
appcfg.py create_bulkloader_config --filename=bulkloader.yaml (doesn't
work on dev)

Then you must use this bulkloader.yaml with the --config_file flag :
appcfg.py download_data --config_file=bulkloader.yaml --
filename=users.csv --kind=Permission --url=app-directory

For the remote api, did you use the th builtin handler ?
- remote_api: on

Then the --url should be --url=http://mysite.appspot.com/_ah/
remote_api
(/_ah)

else you can read more here.

OK,... I found the issue :)

First the doc is wrong here :
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/uploadingdata.html#Downloading_and_Uploading_All_Data

You MUST add a --config_file=.yaml.

Else there is no warning, it downloads the entities but in SQL 3
format.

At the end of the doc :
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/uploadingdata.html#Editing_the_Configuration_File

The --config_file is mentioned.

Maybe this doc should be rewrite a little.

[google-appengine] Re: FAQ for out of preview pricing changes

2011-05-20 Thread Sylvain
Even if I think that the monthly fee should be removed (or be a lot
cheaper), a fee per ACCOUNT is much better.

If a dev has 10 small app, it will cost : $9 * 12 * 10 = $1080 just
for the monthly fee.
Currently this dev paies only less than $50 (only for few GB for
example).


On 20 mai, 10:43, Tim meer...@gmail.com wrote:
 Here's a suggestion GAE guys - how about the $9 minimum is per ACCOUNT
 rather than per APP.

 Me - I've only got the one app, but for people who say I've got 8 apps, any
 one of which might just break the quota any month, but only by 50c or so
 then this would ease their burden a bit - $9 a month they can probably fund,
 whereas $70 a month sounds a bit steep. Of course, if they're using $70 of
 resources a month, then they pay that, but it eases the problem of small
 bursts on a bunch of rarely used apps, and it gets you a paying customer (it
 also encourages me, as a small user, to develop a couple more apps once I'm
 paying for the basic facility)

 Just a thought...

Now, how does it make any sense to pay minimum of $9 to be able to
cross the 5GB free limit? 
For me, it makes no sense.

I'm working with GAE since the beginning, and the mojo was pay for
what you use/need.
It's not only a question of $9, but they change the rules with no real
explanation.

I use 4.99GB it's free.
I use 5.0001 it costs $9

I still don't understand these $9, for what... why,

I can understand they need to increase the price, reduce the free

 For $10, you get 100 GB space on AWS. And for $10, you get ~59GB space on
 appengine. Now, how does it make any sense to pay minimum of $9 to be able
 to cross the 5GB free limit?

It's never that simple, and certainly isn't in this case.

That said, Google certainly doesn't owe anyone a free service layer,
  nor a
linear ramp-up to paid service.  And apps around the limit of the free
service tier are probably something to discourage since they actually
consume resources.  Still, I'm more likely to contribute

[google-appengine] Re: FAQ for out of preview pricing changes

2011-05-18 Thread Sylvain
Thank you for this FAQ,

But : [...] will still have to spend $9/month in order to scale but
you won’t pay an additional $9 for your first $9 worth of usage each
month.[...]

So with this change : an app thats use 1GB above the free quota will
pay $9/month (and not $9,15) ?
Currently, this app cost $0.15/month

It's x60 than now more than $100 / year...

This drastic change is not fair.
I think that many small apps that don't fit within the free quotas
will be shutdown.

Regards

Sylvain

 For instance, for a B4 (approx 2.4GHz) instance: consuming 10

 We are only planning on having one size of Frontend Instance.

 Q: So, is a Frontend Instance going to be a B4?

 Even if the CPU is not currently working due to waiting for responses, the
 instance is still resident and considered “in use” so, essentially, it still
 costs Google money.

 Q: Does this mean, the Instance is exclusive and not shared between
 applications? That the CPU will be left idle rather than used by another
 application? And the unused memory be left free rather than allowing other
 apps to use it?

 Q: Is there ever a possibility to have different pricing for active instance
 hours versus idle instance hours?

 Still unhappy about the $9/month pricing. And happy that we'll have python
 2.7 with multi threading support by end of this year.

 Thanks,

  Hello All!

  As you've likely heard, when Google App Engine leaves Preview in the second
  half of 2011, the pricing model will change.  Prices are listed here:
 http://www.google.com/enterprise/appengine/appengine_pricing.html.  But
  that leaves a lot of questions unanswered, this FAQ is intended to help
  answer some of the frequently asked questions about the new model.  We are
  interested in hearing additional thoughts and comments you have based on
  this.  Once it is relatively stable I'll add it to our official docs.  If
  you find there is something you want to know but it is not yet answered,
  just ask and I'll try to answer it as clearly as possible.  We've made some
  changes based on the feedback we've gotten (from this group in particular),
  they are bolded below but not updated on the external pages yet.  There are
  still blanks to fill in and I will be sending that information to this group
  first in order as it is available.  Finally, thank you for your questions

  *Definitions*
  *Instance*: A small virtual environment to run your code with a reserved
  amount of CPU and Memory.
  *Frontend Instance*: An Instance running your code and scaling dynamically
  based on the incoming requests but limited in how long a request can run.
  *Backend Instance*: An Instance running your code with limited scaling
  based on your settings and potentially starting and stopping based on your
  actions.
  *Scheduler*: Part of the App Engine infrastructure that determines which
  Instance should serve a request including whether or not a new Instance is
  needed.

  *Serving Infrastructure*
  Q: What’s an Instance?
  A: When App Engine starts running your code it creates a small virtual
  environment to run your code with a reserved amount of CPU and Memory.  For
  example if you are running a Java app, we will start a new JVM for you and
  load your code into it.

  Q: Is an App Engine Instance similar to a VM from infrastructure providers?
  A: Yes and no, they both have a set amount of CPU and Memory allocated to
  them, but GAE instances don’t have the overhead of operating systems or
  other applications running, so a much larger percentage of the CPU and
  memory is considered “usable.” They also operate against high-level APIs and
  not down through layers of code to virtual device drivers, so it’s more
  efficient, and allows all the services to be fully managed.

  Q: How does GAE determine the number of Frontend Instances to run?
  A: For each new request, the Scheduler decides whether there is an
  available Instance for the request, the request should wait, or a new
  Instance should be created to service the request.  It looks at the number
  of Instances, the throughput of the Instances, and the number of requests
  waiting.  Based on that it predicts how long it will take before it can
  serve the request (aka the Pending Latency).  If it predicts the delay will
  be over 1 second, a new Instance is created.  If it looks like an Instance
  is no longer needed, it will take that Instance down.

  Q: Should I assume I will be charged for the number of Instances currently
  being shown in the Admin console

[google-appengine] Re: What do you want to see answered in Greg's pricing FAQ?

2011-05-16 Thread Sylvain
Hi,

With the actual prices, a very small paid app that only need 1GB above
the free quota costs : $0.15 / month.
With the new prices : $9 (monthly fee) + $0.15 = $9.15.

Old price $2 / year - new price $110/year  (+ $108)
So it increases the price by x55.

For these app, the increase is very high.
What will you answer for them ?

Regards.

 Greg mentioned he was putting together an FAQ so let's help him out!

 If you're going to answer this just put in your question into a single line,
 let's not try and answer them here or give opinions, there's plenty of other
 threads for that. I do understand that Google doesn't have answers to some
 these.

 Here's my list:

 1) What is the time granularity of the instance pricing?  ie if I have an
 instance up for 5 minutes, what am I charged, $0.08 / 60*5?
 2) Will I be able to tune the scheduler myself, ie set it to performance or
 low cost,  Will I be able to limit the min or max number of instances
 created (with the obvious impact on user experience)?
 3) Python concurrency, will this require any code changes, do you have any
 estimates based on your testing of the number of well behaved requests per
 second a single instance will be able to handle for a given framework?
 4) Database charges, when can you give us more details over what Max gave in
 the other thread, are you charging for deletes, what do you expect the ratio
 to be between the new pricing metric and the Datastore API calls metric we
 have today?
 5) Will you be charging differently for instances that use different amounts
 of memory, since this seems to be the cost that you're going after that
 isn't charged for in the current model.

 Thanks,
 Kenneth

[google-appengine] Re: Is App Engine suddenly becoming more expensive???

2011-05-10 Thread Sylvain
For very small app $9/month is a big jump.

Example : for one of my apps, I pay $1/month and with the new price
$10/month
= +900%

GAE was : pay for what you use, it is no more the case...


On May 10, 7:29 pm, Ugorji ugo...@gmail.com wrote:
 Did App Engine suddenly start costing a minimum of $45 per month?

 http://googleappengine.blogspot.com/2011/05/year-ahead-for-google-app...

 Summary: pay-as-you-go is 8 cents per hour an instance is running, or 5
 cents per hour if you pre-reserve. This translates to $58 per month for
 pay-as-you-go or $36 per month for pre-reserved. Add the $9/app/month fee
 for any serious apps with billing enabled (required for using blobstore,
 etc), and it translates to $45 (if pre-reserved) or $67 (pay-as-you-go). And
 this is for an app with only one instance always running.

 Compared to what we've been used to, this seems like a major increase in
 price. Maybe someone can shed some light on this - I hope it's not as bad as
 it looks to me.

 (P.S. Pricing for High Replication Datastore is a welcome change - thanks
 Google. You've also made it easier to pick HRD, as there'd no pricing
 advantage for M/S anymore).

2011-05-10 Thread Sylvain
I've many small app for personal uses or friends where I only need
more storage : 2 GB.

For this app where the free version is not enough but for little use,
$9 is important.

Before : it costed about $100€ for 10 apps / year.
Now : 100 (storage) + $9 * 12 (month) * 10 (app) = $1180.

If you have 1 real app, it's ok.
For many small app, $9 is very important.

Maybe if $9 was per account not per app it would ok else, AppEngine is
not the good solution.
There are so many cheaper solution.

 Hope some body else who is more familiar with the above libraries can

 Yes in your PC - follow the instructions of the library for that so
 you ca test it with the local server.
 Also include the whole library on your project files so it will be
 uploaded in GAE.

Sure you can after installing the library and including the files in
your application provided this library does not depend on anything but
python.
Also since data passing mechanism for google visualization api is
quite easy to implement in python you can avoid the burden of one more
import and write your own interface.
For an example of using visualization api from gae you can take a look
at:  http://www.geognos.com/geo/en/cc/no.html#Economy
Unfortunately i did not have the time to document the code but feel
free to examine the page source code and the relative javascript
files.

Happy coding;)

[google-appengine] Re: Downloading source code from Google App Engine

For this last point, I've added a request :
http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=831
Add a flag to appcfg.py to zip/upload the sources

Currently, I use something like this.

 Method 2:

 memcache.set(cache_key, db.model_to_protobuf(entity))

 Hi there

 Just got off the phone with my bank after spending 10 minutes
 reactivating my credit card after my first AppEngine credit card
 charge for $0.01 USD. Banks tend to view these charges as potentially
 fraudulent.

 I understand the need to charge for AppEngine, but charging $0.01 a
 week hardly seems worthwhile.

 Perhaps the system could aggregate charges to a reasonable amount -
 say $5, and then charge the card?

 Alternatively, allow me to prepay a certain amount, so then I can
 forget about it for a few months.

 The other issue is that my credit card is in Australia Dollars. I'm
 probably going to get some sort of foreign currency conversion fee now
 every time $0.01 is charged. That will probably be many many multiples
 of the actual charge.

[google-appengine] PDF vulnerability and allowed mail extensions

Hello,

Now, PDF is probably the most vulnerable file type and the Most
Common File Type in Targeted Attacks

http://www.f-secure.com/weblog/archives/1676.html

It seems that all recent and major attacks use this file.

So, I wonder why it is still allowed in the mail service and why MS
Office/OpenOffice (and particularly 2007/2010 type: .docx, .xlsx,... )
are not allowed.

During this Chat Room :
http://groups.google.com/group/google-appengine/browse_frm/thread/1641cfeaf301e7a5/bbbd057b8cdca36e
I've asked this question

But now, it seems that PDF should be removed from the white list or
office files should be added.
else it's not very logical.

 in elseif statements against arrays. The original message is posted to
 2 tables in MySQL: one with entire message, and another with exploded
 array words. This second table is queried for most common words and
 echoed in a datatable.

 Both of these forms must be in same app.

 My app also uses geo location and css/js libraries.

 I'm confused about Django templates; I did not see any CSS/JS

 The attraction of GAE seems to be doing everything in one interface/

I've never seen many reports about virus inside these docs.

A virus in a link is scan once and generally an attachment is scanned

 --SUMMARY---
 - Q: Why am I seeing  0.1% rate of datastore operations time out and
 is anything being done to reduce this? A: A certain level of datastore
 timeouts is expected (generally between 0.1% and 0.2% of all datastore
 operations) but, we are actively working on ways to improve datastore
 reliability. If you are seeing a much higher rate, be sure to inspect
 your data model for write contention which often manifests as
 datastore timeouts. [9:02-9:07]

 - Q: What is the recommended approach to datastore capacity planning
 ahead of a large bulk upload? A: Entities are stored as protocol
 buffers (http://code.google.com/p/protobuf/) -- if you familiarize
 yourself with the protobuf specification, you can determine the space
 needed to store each entity, minus the datastore overhead, fairly
 easily. An article is coming out soon which explains how entities and
 indexes are stored in much more detail. [9:04-9:05]

 - Q: Can a high level of read operations result in datastore
 contention? A: Datastore contention is usually the result of too many
 attempted concurrent writes to the same datastore entity or entity
 group. Before implementing your data model, consider the expected read/
 write access patterns and design your data model accordingly, sharding
 entities that you expect to update more than once per second (http://
 code.google.com/appengine/articles/scaling/contention.html). While
 concurrent writes generally result in contention, concurrent reads
 generally result in better performance due to caching. [9:08-9:09,
 9:11-9:13, 9:18]

 - Q: Are there any plans to support more file extensions for
 attachments to outgoing email, e.g. .doc, .docx, etc.? A: There are no
 immediate plans to support these extensions due to the prevalence of
 viruses contained in files of these types. In the meantime, you can
 include links to the files or share them via Google Docs. [9:14, 9:16,
 9:19-9:20]

 - Q: What is the recommended approach to paging large data sets in App
 Engine? A: The offset approach is *not* recommended because it won't
 work for result sets larger than 1,000. Until datastore cursors are
 available, the recommended approaches are summarized 
 inhttp://code.google.com/appengine/articles/paging.html. [9:21-9:23]

 - Q: How can one avoid exploding indexes when using list properties?
 A: In general, you should avoid referencing more than one list

 contain a large number of elements. Index rows have to be added for

 I am using a development server on my machine.

 I want to redirect anything like:

 This does not seem to work:

 class Goto(webapp.RequestHandler):
    def get(self, url):

      self.redirect(googUrl, permanent=True)

 application = webapp.WSGIApplication(

                                     (r'/(.*)',Goto)],

 If i type in address bar:http://localhost:8080/abcd

 then I should be redirected towww.google.com

 but right now I get redirect tohttp://localhost:8080/www.google.com

 how can i solve it?

Don't understand why uploadify can't work ?

It's a client side tech (js, swf). So you can do what you want server
side.
I don't know uploadify but I think the 'folder' attributes is just an
attribute for the server side script.
Then you can store the file where you want.

So it should work easily.
You have to rewrite check.php and uploadify.php to pyhton + gae.

[google-appengine] Re: Advantages to storing images of common size in separate tables?

2009-09-19 Thread Sylvain

It can depend on the size of the picts (max AVATARS entity size = 1
MB).
So if the pictures are big, you should split the Model.

Else and I think avatar are really small ? Then I'll use your AVATARS
(db.Model) and for speed, I'll put the entity into memcache with no
timeout. Easier.

Regards.

 If you only need some of these images some of the time

 I would actually create a AvatarImage class
 which has a blob property, image sizes, formats etc

 And an  AvatarImageReference class

 E.g  (note code is not exact, there are typos etc... but you will get
 the point)

 class AvatarImageReference
     avatar = ReferenceProperty(Avatar,collection_name=images)
     image = ReferencePropery(AvatarImage)
     image_type = StringProperty   # put small, medium, large in this

 And your avatar class as below minus any references to images

 You can then get a  all image references defined for the avatar with

 myavatar.images

 fetch each image with

 for i in myavatar.images:
     i.image

 or filter images on size etc.. by looking at image type

 That way you wont fetch an image unless you really need it

  Obviously the later is nice and simple, but I'm concerned that when I

  more system resources if I only need one of the three images?

  Hi, I'm new with python and I having problems to implement the typical

  I wan't to make a decorator of the most common memcache pattern so I
  don't have to implement the logic everytime. My intention is having a
  function that receives the key to get and a callback with the
  datastore gets, in case the memcache key expires, it's evicted or
  whatever.

  This is what I have now:

  class MC():
    �...@staticmethod
     def get( key, get_data_callback ):
         data_set = memcache.get( key )
         if data_set == None:
             data_set = get_data_callback()
             memcache.set( key, data_set )
         return data_set

  I'm having problems with the callback when some params are required.
  For instance:

  class DB():
    �...@staticmethod
     def get_user( id ):
           return User().all().filter('id =', id').fetch(1)

  def get_user( id ):
     return MC.get( key, lambda id: DB.get_user( id ) )

  The error I get when I call 'get_user(1)' is something like:

  TypeError: lambda() takes exactly 1 argument (0 given)

  Though it works in this case:

  def get_user_one():
      return User().all().filter('id = 1').fetch(1)

  It seems to be something with the params, they are lost, could it be
  solved with closures? other approach?

 I'll try it from a different network connection when I go home
 tonight.  Maybe this has something to do with it.

 Any ideas?  My app went from pretty snappy to pretty slow overnight.

[google-appengine] Re: How can you access App.yaml data?

2009-08-28 Thread Sylvain

I think it is not possible, app.yaml is not uploaded in the same
directory than your app.

Maybe you can duplicated this file app.yaml - settings.yaml, then it
will be uploaded in the same dir and you could use the yaml lib to
read it.

Regards

 Is it possible to access the data in your app.yaml file from your app?
 (Not the file, but is the data loaded into the code anywhere).
 For example, I am looking to access the handlers with the login
 property set to required so that I do not have to repeat some sort of
 variable in the code because this is inconvenient to maintain. I need
 to force someone to actually register with the site once signed in
 with a google account but login:required would still let them view the
 page without registering so I need to access the urls.

[google-appengine] Re: synthentic keys - performance implications?

do not forget to add a prefix to the key_name (ie : 'k:',...)

  Currently, one must put() in order to have obj.key() be valid. In some
  flows, I find my self having to put() object twice for this reason.

  If I make a synthetic key, it appears that I can avoid this:

  class Joker(db.Model):
   unused = db.StringProperty()
   def __init__(self):
     m = hashlib.sha1()
     m.update(str(time.time()))
     name = base64.b64encode(m.digest())
     logging.debug(name=+name)
     db.Model.__init__(self, key_name=name)

  1) GOOG folks - are there any performance downsides to taking this
  approach?

 Not really, no.



  2) If no, are there any other environmental factors that might be
  fodder for the hash (user, etc)?

 I would recommend using uuid.uuid4().hex instead of a straight SHA1 sum.
 UUIDs are guaranteed to be unique.

 I would also recommend defining a class method called something like
 'create' that generates the key name and calls __init__. There are
 subtle-use cases around __init__ and reconstructing entities from the
 datastore, and it's difficult to get right - much more straightforward to
 define a class method to construct new entities.

Thank you for this explanation !

Another point, if I've only 1 task in the queue and my bucket_size =
10.
This task may be never be triggered if there is no new task ?
The system is waiting for 9 new tasks ?

On 26 juin, 01:15, Jeff S (Google) j...@google.com wrote:
 Hi Sylvain,

 Great question! The bucket sized is intended to allow you to regulate bursts
 of incoming task executions. For example, if you set the bucket size to 1,
 only one task in the queue can be started at a time. If the task queues
 quota bucket is empty, no new tasks for the queue will be started.

 This differs slightly from rate (as noted in the docs):

 http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/config/queue.html#Queue_...

 A high rate with a small bucket size means that new tasks will be executed
 quickly when the queue is empty, but only a small number of tasks will be
 started at once. So you could intentionally cause the queue to grow longer
 when lots of new tasks are being added to spread out your task execution
 more evenly.

 Cheers,

 Jeff

 The bucket size is the maximum number of tasks that will be started at
 once, not the minimum.  If the number of tasks is less than the bucket
 size, you should expect the tasks to all get run when your rate calls
 for them to run.

 Since I don't need the A object contents, would it be more efficient

 In my handler I print path:

 However regex matching does not seems to be working my handler never
 gets invoked and I am getting 404.

 If I remove /.* part from URL matching expression, my handler is

 I am testing with dev_appserver.py

 What I am doing wrong?

[google-appengine] Re: necessary libs for parsing json?

2009-06-15 Thread Sylvain

simplejson is included with django (and so with GAE) or you can use
any other pure python libraries :

[google-appengine] Re: Performance: Datastore writes vs. logging writes

2009-06-14 Thread Sylvain

DB
Or you can store it in memcache (not safe but fast)
Or you can use both : save in Memchache then use a job that checks it
and store in DB.
Or Google Analytics ;)

It depends if you need to log a _LOT_ or not and if this info is
_VERY_ important or only FI.

Regards.

  We want to collect usage statistics with our app.

  Which option is more suitable, performance-wise:
  1. Track user actions in the App Engine Log, i.e. write a log entry
  each time. Evaluate the logs for usage statistics.
  2. Track user actions in a table in the Datastore. Write an entry for
  each user action. Evaluate this table for usage statistics.

  I would guess, that log writes are much faster than Datastore writes.
  What are your experiences and suggestions?

[google-appengine] Re: Shared Counter Returns String

2009-06-09 Thread Sylvain

I've already ask for this and the answer (in this group) from a
Googler is now you can use both :

memcache.add(name, str(total), 60)
or
memcache.add(name, total, 60)

On 8 juin, 21:09, Wooble geoffsp...@gmail.com wrote:
 It's a requirement of memcached; the incr command in the underlying

 an integer.

 I believe memcache stores everything as a string, although the library
 has some magic in it to allow you to store any datatype it can pickle.

  Upon using this I noticed that it would return an int the first time and a

  I change the line below and works as expected now.

      # memcache.add(name, str(total), 60)
      memcache.add(name, total, 60)

  Am I missing something here? Is there a reason str(total) would be preferred
  over total?

Another thing is that filename with ; is buggy.
Try to send a file like my;file.jpg -- it returns my.

I think it's a bug in a python module that checks the headers.

   To get the filename of an uploaded file ( via the Content-Disposition

   self.request.params[form element name with file].filename

   I suppose this may have been obvious to some, but using
   self.request.get() always returns the String value of the form

   cgi.FieldStorage object ( which holds the filename ) from you.

   Hope this helps.

[google-appengine] Re: ReferenceProperty with key_name ?

2009-06-07 Thread Sylvain

db.key is assigned if you set a the key_name attribute.
So I understand your question

my_entity = my_model(key_name = 'abc')
my_entity.put()
my_entity.key().name returns the key_name i.e. : abc

On 7 juin, 09:29, Tom Wu service.g2...@gmail.com wrote:
 Hi All,

 Since the db.key is auto generate by system. We can't assign the value of
 db.key.

 If ReferenceProperty can reference with key_name, it will make easier for us
 to backup and restore the Reference model.

 Just a idea for me, Any suggestion will be appreciated.
