But there are actually over 500 stored instances for both of these models. What could be causing this problem? ...

Hello guys, I'm using appengine to develop an application. Ideally I would like to define a new kind (called Recipe) like this: class Recipe(db.Model): ingredients = db.ListProperty(type) quantities = db.ListProperty(int) However it seems that you cannot use "type" as the class value in ListProperty. I was thinking of instead ...

Hi, I'm thinking of building a multi-player game using GAE. When player A makes a move, I'd like to record the details and then let player B know about the move. I thought that I might get some open-source XMPP library in my client and notify presence to my app if that is possible? I wouldn't want to force the player to sign-up to a se...

I've prototyped an iPhone app that uses (internally) sqLite as its data base. The intent was to ultimately have it communicate with a server via PHP, which would use mySQL as the backend database. I just discovered Google App Engine, however, but know very little about it. I think it'd be nice to use the Python interface to write to...

This task then should take care of one page and depending on some checks, put another instance of itself on the queue for the next page. Now a simple taskqueue.add(url='/path/to_self', params=control...

I know that when your Google App Engine (GAE) app has 0 instances running (because it has been idle for a bit), and a user requests a page, the user has to wait for the instance to boot up and do all of the instantiation which can cause the user to wait a significant amount of time. My question is about the situation when your GAE app a...
