"""Simple, schema-based database abstraction layer for the datastore.
Modeled after Django's abstraction layer on top of SQL databases,
http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/mode_api/. Ours is a little simpler
and a lot less code because the datastore is so much simpler than SQL
databases.
The programming model is to declare Python subclasses of the Model class,
declaring datastore properties as class members of that class. So if you want to
publish a story with title, body, and created date, you would do it like this:
class Story(db.Model):
title = db.StringProperty()
body = db.TextProperty()
created = db.DateTimeProperty(auto_now_add=True)
You can create a new Story in the datastore with this usage pattern:
story = Story(title='My title')
story.body = 'My body'
story.put()
You query for Story entities using built in query interfaces that map directly
to the syntax and semantics of the datastore:
stories = Story.all().filter('date >=', yesterday).order('-date')
for story in stories:
print story.title
The Property declarations enforce types by performing validation on assignment.
For example, the DateTimeProperty enforces that you assign valid datetime
objects, and if you supply the "required" option for a property, you will not
be able to assign None to that property.
We also support references between models, so if a story has comments, you
would represent it like this:
class Comment(db.Model):
story = db.ReferenceProperty(Story)
body = db.TextProperty()
When you get a story out of the datastore, the story reference is resolved
automatically the first time it is referenced, which makes it easy to use
model instances without performing additional queries by hand:
comment = Comment.get(key)
print comment.story.title
Likewise, you can access the set of comments that refer to each story through
this property through a reverse reference called comment_set, which is a Query
preconfigured to return all matching comments:
story = Story.get(key)
for comment in story.comment_set:
print comment.body

"""Dynamically expandable model.
An Expando does not require (but can still benefit from) the definition
of any properties before it can be used to store information in the
datastore. Properties can be added to an expando object by simply
performing an assignment. The assignment of properties is done on
an instance by instance basis, so it is possible for one object of an
expando type to have different properties from another or even the same
properties with different types. It is still possible to define
properties on an expando, allowing those properties to behave the same
as on any other model.
Example:
import datetime
class Song(db.Expando):
title = db.StringProperty()
crazy = Song(title='Crazy like a diamond',
author='Lucy Sky',
publish_date='yesterday',
rating=5.0)
hoboken = Song(title='The man from Hoboken',
author=['Anthony', 'Lou'],
publish_date=datetime.datetime(1977, 5, 3))
crazy.last_minute_note=db.Text('Get a train to the station.')
Possible Uses:
One use of an expando is to create an object without any specific
structure and later, when your application mature and it in the right
state, change it to a normal model object and define explicit properties.
Additional exceptions for expando:
Protected attributes (ones whose names begin with '_') cannot be used
as dynamic properties. These are names that are reserved for protected
transient (non-persisted) attributes.
Order of lookup:
When trying to set or access an attribute value, any other defined
properties, such as methods and other values in __dict__ take precedence
over values in the datastore.
1 - Because it is not possible for the datastore to know what kind of
property to store on an undefined expando value, setting a property to
None is the same as deleting it from the expando.
2 - Persistent variables on Expando must not begin with '_'. These
variables considered to be 'protected' in Python, and are used
internally.
3 - Expando's dynamic properties are not able to store empty lists.
Attempting to assign an empty list to a dynamic property will raise
ValueError. Static properties on Expando can still support empty
lists but like normal Model properties is restricted from using
None.
