How do you handle redirecting maciak.net over to http://www.maciak.net? Is that something you set up in godaddy?

Thanks for the post, I’m planning to host my blog on Google App Engine. Trying my first shot with Bloog :-)

Thanks for your post. I am new at python and this will be a big help.

i followed your tutorial until i got to where i have to start doing codes in the python sdk.
i need some help in setting it up properly.
i have registered app in google.

how can I call my personal web page from google blogger? If I get input from user, where I will store my data?

Very inspiring post!
One question..can you explain how did you configured your domain http://www.maciak.net/ to point your application on google app engine ?
Are you using google apps?

thanks

Hi, thanks for this post!

I used another way to get dynamically named pages, using the path attribute of the request object as following :


page_name = self.request.path.split('/')[-1]


An example of call is :


http://myapp.appspot.com/pages/my_page_id


and retrieve information about my_page_id’s page from the DB. This way you dont need to have physically your pages on your file system.

Hope this help others fellows,

Cheers

[…] Last week, I talked about setting up a dynamic personal web page on Google AppEngine. I mentioned that it would be possible to grow and expand your page beyond the simplistic informational page I have shown you. More specifically, I mentioned running blogs and forums out of it. I already described how to set up a AppEngine based forum so there is no need to reiterate that here. Today I wanted to talk about running your own blog on top of the service. […]

I’d use “+” as modifier (instead of “*”), since you want at least one character before “.html”.

For the “index” recursion, I’d default to main.html though for “index”. But OTOH, that would be to pages with the same content – not good. After all, it’s fine.

(btw: it sucks that you have to enable JS for posting comments)

@Daniel Hahler: Good suggestion. See the updated code above. How is that?

Your tip also allowed me to get rid of a nasty recursion use case which happened when p=index. Phew!

Anyway, any suggestions to improve this code are greatly appreciated.
