I am using deferred library with GAE. In order to do that I have to define a 'fix_path' module and import the 'fix_path' in the module deferred.defer.
What I need to do in order deferred to work with web2py? Regards, --Constantine http://code.google.com/appengine/articles/deferred.html Handling import path manipulation Some applications, or the frameworks they use, rely on manipulating the Python import path in order to make all the libraries they need available. While this is a perfectly legitimate technique, the deferred library has no way of knowing what path manipulations you've engaged in, so if the task you're deferring relies on modules that aren't on the import path by default, you need to give it a helping hand. Failing to do this can result in your tasks failing to run - or worse, only failing intermittently. Fortunately, handling this is easy. Make sure your code that changes the import path is in a module all of its own, such as 'fix_path.py'. Such a module might look like this: import os import sys sys.path.append(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'lib')) Then, import the 'fix_path' module along with your usual imports, anywhere you rely on the modified path, such as in the module you defined the functions you're calling with deferred.defer in.
