0.2.1 Release

The GAEO 0.2.1 has been released now. If you're using 0.2, I suggest you change to 0.2.1.

What's New in 0.2.1

• Add BaseModel.belongs_to method back.


• Add SearchBaseModel that extends BaseModel and SearchableModel


• Some bugs fixed.


• TextMate Bundle

GAEO TextMate bundle

If you are a Mac programmer, I suppose that you love the TextMate editor and use it for coding. Now, the GAEO team provides a TextMate bundle for you. Please refer to the installation guide. We will keep on adding more useful commands, snippets, etc.

Maybe the bundle will be shipped with the GAEO package in the next release.

SearchableBaseModel and 0.2.1-Beta

In 0.2.1, we've added a new model class -- gaeo.model.SearchableBaseModel. It directly inherits from gaeo.model.BaseModel and google.appengine.ext.search.SearchableModel. If your model is searchable (App Engine will help you construct the search indexes in each entity.), please create a model that extends SearchableBaseModel.

At the same time, we also release the 0.2.1 BETA version. The BaseModel.belongs_to and SearchableBaseMoel are included.

I want belongs_to method back!

Before the release of 0.2, I found that there's a hard-to-resolve bug in BaseModel.belongs_to method. So I temporarily remove it from the 0.2 release. However, I tried a hack that make BaseModel.belongs_to more reasonable. In 0.2.1 release, this class_method will be officially provided.

Now you can download the nightly release from the project home to have BaseModel.belongs_to method.

Do You Love GAEO?

We create a Gallery page here. It lists the sites who use GAEO as framework.

If you want to put your site in the list, please email [ericsk AT gaeo.org] the details. We will update ASAP.

0.2 Release

The GAEO 0.2 version has been released (here). You can download the newer package or use

easy_install -U gaeo

to upgrade the previous install. You may refer to the CHANGELOG to know the changes from 0.1 to 0.2.

The document site would be modified soon. I hope you use GAEO 0.2 from now on and report us bugs :-)
