I have a model class. It is a User. The user has many different attributes, but for the sake of the question I will only post a few and the one that is the most important.
This is my models.py
from endpoints_proto_datastore.ndb.model import EndpointModel
from google.appengine.ext import ndb
class User(EndpointsModel):
_message_fields_schema = ("entityKey", "first_name", "age", "user_bucket")
first_name = ndb.StringProperty()
age = ndb.IntegerProperty()
user_bucket = ndb.StringProperty()
in my user_api.py when the user is created, the user is put into the datastore as well give that user a unique bucket name that was created for them. I have successfully written the code that will create the bucket for them and stores the string in the User model.
What I want to know is how, in my user_api.py file, what method do I use that will return the string of the user_bucket of the User that I specified.
Here is an example of the api. Without the all the annotations and imports.
class UserApi(protorpc.remote.Service):
pass
def user_create(self, request):
if request.from_datastore:
my_user= request
else:
my_user = User(parent=main.USER_PARENT_KEY, first_name=request.first_name, age=request.age)
"""Then I create a unique string name for the bucket name with a time stamp"""
my_user.user_bucket = USER_BUCKET
my_user.put()
What I want to know is what api method do I write and how do I write it to return the bucket of the user that I input to the method and do I use the entity key? I am completely lost on this one.
