[google-appengine] Re: Limit on image size very low

2009-12-08 Thread sserrano
In the mean time you can try http://code.google.com/p/appengine-storages/

Is a project Im developing and provides an Storage property that tries
to works like the django one. Now has two backends, S3 and datastore.
The datastore backend saves the file in 1mb chunks.

The code is still beta but functional enough for sites not under
production.

 The roadmap is meant to be a six month launch schedule. We don't work on
 projects in a serial process, more than likely work has more already begun
 if not already nearing completion for many of the items on the list. I can't
 give you a precise date for serving or storing large files yet, but we are
 trying a process in which we release beta SDKs so you can start developing
 against it before the official release.

[google-appengine] Re: Limit on image size very low

2009-11-17 Thread Bjoern
Sure, my only application of the imaging API is to reduce the size of
images that users upload, to display the small size on the web. It
wouldn't happen very often, either (resize once, display n times).

My only idea now is to maybe go through some other service that has an
API - a photosharing service, for example. It is getting unnecessarily
complicated, though.

I totally agree. The 1MB size limit for database entities could remain
for all I care. Just give me the chance to resize my users' 5MB images
to ~300k versions. Besides, the 10MB request size limit seems out of
place when seen beside the image api size limit.

 The latter - it throws an error if the image you try to manipulate is
 bigger than 1MB in memory.

  I haven't used the Image api.. but.. do you mean the limit of 1MB for

  If you're just trying to get a 1MB image into the datastore, you could break
  it up into 1mb chunks before sticking it in the datastore.
