What does this example program from the Google App Engine documentation mean when it references self? Where can i look up what methods (such as self.response...)?
from google.appengine.api import users
from google.appengine.ext import webapp
from google.appengine.ext.webapp.util import run_wsgi_app
class MainPage(webapp.RequestHandler):
def get(self):
user = users.get_current_user()
if user:
self.response.headers['Content-Type'] = 'text/plain'
self.response.out.write('Hello, ' + user.nickname())
else:
self.redirect(users.create_login_url(self.request.uri))
application = webapp.WSGIApplication(
[('/', MainPage)],
debug=True)
def main():
run_wsgi_app(application)
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
