Anyway, I am trying to retrieve data from Data.fs and store it in a representation easier to work, such as JSON. To do it, I need to know which objects I should get from Plone's Data.fs. I already got the Products.CMFPlone.Por...

Here are my object models (stripped to show just the essentials): class Submission(Models.model) favorite_of = models.ManyToManyField(User, related_name="favorite_sub...

The task is to access/connect-to Pyro objects on computer A (Pyro's name servers are broadcasting both tcp and udp packets on port 9090), from computer B which is across the internets. I made a set of tunnels connecting A & B with autossh on 7766 & 9090 (the ports Pyro uses out of the box) which didn't seem to do the trick. My next thoug...
Suppose I have class Foo(db.Model): bar = db.ReferenceProperty(Bar) foo = Foo.all().get() Is there a way for me to do foo.bar without a query being made to Datastore? The docs say that foo.bar will be an instance of Key, so I would expect to be able to do foo.bar.id() and be able to get the id of the Bar that's associated with foo...

What type of language it is and is there a need to le...
I'm a new Python programmer who is making the leap from 2.6.4 to 3.1.1. Everything has gone fine until I tried to use the 'else if' statement. The interpreter gives me a syntax error after the 'if' in 'else if' for a reason I can't seem to figure out. def function(a): if a == '1': print ('1a') else if a == '2' pr...

I've heard how browsers can receive gzipped pages from the server. Can they also gzip form data that they send to the server? And if it's possible, how would I decompress this data on the server? I'm using AppEngine's webapp module, but a general explanation / pointers to tutorials would be sufficient. I've done some googling to no avai...
Folks, I have a problem. I am a writing a script in python which consists of several modules. Some of the modules are dependent on other modules, hence they should be run only after the dependent modules are successfully run.
