Brizzled: Making XML-RPC calls from a Google App Engine application. Google App Engine (GAE) is a useful platform on which to develop Python-based web applications.

Brizzled: Making XML-RPC calls from a Google App Engine application

But a GAE application runs in a sandbox that prevents it from opening a socket, which makes the standard Python xmlrpclib module inoperable. Getting started with the Google App Engine. – Identity Interface. Some Background Most of my experience has been doing .net development. For the last few years I have done client development: WPF, Silverlight, and Windows Forms. Prior to that I was doing mostly asp.net development. I recently started getting my feet wet in Android development and one of the first steps in any platform is to get comfortable with the parts of the applications and how they talk to each other.

Sharding Counters - Google App Engine - Google Code. App Engine System Status. CloudStatus® Powered by Hyperic. Is Google App Engine the wrong product ... Earlier this year I was approached about writing a book on cloud computing topics by an editor for one of the big computer book publishers.

Is Google App Engine the wrong product ...

Given that between my day job and having an infant I barely have time to keep this blog updated, I had to turn down the offer. However I did spend some time taking a second look at various cloud computing platforms like Amazon Web Services and Google App Engine then trying to put myself into the mindset of a potential customer as a way to figure out the target audience for the book. Below are the two categories of people I surmised would be interested in spending their hard earned cash on a book about cloud computing platforms Enterprise developers looking to cut costs of running their own IT infrastructure by porting existing apps or writing new apps. Web developers looking to build new applications who are interested in leveraging a high performance infrastructure without having to build their own. So how about Web developers? Werkzeug - Python WSGI framework.

Python Examples. On these pages, I have collected a bit of information about the Python programming language, along with a bunch of examples.

Python Examples

These might be useful if you want to see some of the features without actually learning the language itself. You don't have to read through all of this in order. Just pick the pages which look most interesting to you. The topics are fairly independent from each other and don't require any existing knowledge about Python. Note: Some of the examples might require at least Python 2.3.

Small code examples This page contains a few small code snippets, to give you an impression how the programming language looks like. Lambda functions Several useful concepts of Python have been borrowed from functional languages. Dynamic typing In Python, everything has a well-defined type, and these types can be handled completely at runtime in a dynamic and self-inspective fashion.

Package Index : setuptools 0.6c9. Installation Instructions The recommended way to bootstrap setuptools on any system is to download ez_setup.py and run it using the target Python environment.

Package Index : setuptools 0.6c9

Different operating systems have different recommended techniques to accomplish this basic routine, so below are some examples to get you started. Setuptools requires Python 2.6 or later. To install setuptools on Python 2.4 or Python 2.5, use the bootstrap script for Setuptools 1.x. The link provided to ez_setup.py is a bookmark to bootstrap script for the latest known stable release. Windows (Powershell 3 or later) For best results, uninstall previous versions FIRST (see Uninstalling). Using Windows 8 (which includes PowerShell 3) or earlier versions of Windows with PowerShell 3 installed, it’s possible to install with one simple Powershell command. App Engine Remote API calls.
