Is there a project that can log errors in requests to Django on Google App Engine to the datastore (like django-db-log or django.crashlog)?
Thanks!

A:
- Check out Native Django on GAE. It's a non-relational port of Django to Google's App Engine.
- Another project, google-app-engine-django, looks like an intermediate "helper" to get you going, without the full port.

@Wraith - Thanks for the suggestion. I'd rather avoid mediators just for this logging mechanism - it adds an awful lot of complexity and room for errors for one very specific use. But I appreciate the suggestion!

I've created a project Django-GAE-log to solve this issue. Thoughts and input are welcome!

You may want to take a look at the approach my ereporter module takes (see other answer): By registering a Python logging handler, you can capture all calls to logging.exception and process them as you wish.

@Nick Johnson: Great tip! Interestingly enough I was just perusing your blog for something on cursors+pagination. :) Thanks!

A:
Use the built-in google.appengine.ext.ereporter module:
A logging handler that records information about unique exceptions.
'Unique' in this case is defined as a given (exception class, location) tuple. Unique exceptions are logged to the datastore with an example stacktrace and an approximate count of occurrences, grouped by day and application version.
A cron handler, in google.appengine.ext.ereporter.report_generator, constructs and emails a report based on the previous day's exceptions.
