IDs aren't even unique within a kind; they're unique within a kind and entity group. The reason they're not sequential is that an instance is allocated a large block of IDs, and unused ones aren't assigned to later instances

a plugin is just a bunch of files as is accurately described in the docs and these files go in certain places in your application's folders in order to be used as is also accurately described in the docs.

Try this: SELECT * FROM PreparedTransaction WHERE __key__=KEY('agdwYXllbGV4cjkLEhNQcmVwYXJlZFRyYW5zYWN0aW9uIiAwMDAwMGNjMjMwYzg2MTFjZTFhOWZjZDJkZDEzMWMyNww') This is documented here: http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/datastore/gqlreference.html

1) Show the plugins.groovy and routes.groovy files in the WEB-INF folder in the Gaelyk project diagram. They are currently absent from the diagram. 2 Put a star or some other icon next to the mandatory plugins folder and the 2 mandatory plugin files (plugins.groovy and the plugin descriptor file) in the diagram. This will help show that one just needs to mix in in these files with the rest of their own project's files.

If you use the RemoteDatastore you have complete control in Java of   what you key is. http://code.google.com/p/remote-datastore/ e.g. this code puts an entity with the id set in your remote datastore   from your local machine:      RemoteDatastore.install();      RemoteDatastore.divert("http://myVersion.latest.myApp.appspot.com/remote-datastore ", "myApp", "myVersion");      DatastoreService service =   DatastoreServiceFactory.getDatastoreService();      Key key = KeyFactory.createKey("MyKindName, 35);      Entity entity1 = new Entity(key);      entity1.setProperty("property1", "hello");      datastore.put(Arrays.asList(entity1, entity2);

You can do this now using the RemoteDatastore Java utility http://code.google.com/p/remote-datastore/ For example, this code runs on your desktop and creates a single   entity in your live datastore:     // divert datastore operations to live application     RemoteDatastore.install();     RemoteDatastore.divert("http://myVersion.latest.myApp.appspot.com/remote-datastore ", "myApp", "myVersion");     // create an entity with a numeric key     Key key = KeyFactory.createKey("MyKindName, 35);     Entity entity1 = new Entity(key);     entity1.setProperty("property1", "hello");     // put entity to the remote datastore     DatastoreService service =   DatastoreServiceFactory.getDatastoreService();     datastore.put(entity1); This also works for bulk puts

this won't be available until 1.3.6. You should be able to do something like this:  - property: __key__    external_name: CityId    export_transform: datastore.Key.id    import_transform: lambda value: datastore.Key.from_path('City', int(value))

You should encode subject if using non-ASCII: msg.setSubject(MimeUtility.encodeText(_subject, "UTF-8", "Q"));

This project has sample code for using OAuth support built in to AppEngine. Note that these features are only being made available at this time to get early feedback from the OAuth community.

the oauth api google app engine provide is for OAUTH PROVIDER and not OAUTH CONSUMER.

It was one of the other ways to do it, I just wanted to avoid more code in my architecture just to do this (MVP has the disadvantage of added boilerplate for simple tasks like this one). Anyway I found a workaroud, passing the URL in an invisible div in my page and then reading and populating another field in my page using GWT RootPanel.get(id), using different ids for various parts of the page.

i had to do half an hour of googling to find the easiest solution; http://localhost:8080/_ah/admin/datastore imo it would be useful to have this information on http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/datastore/overview.html and related pages.
