getting from android to Google app engine

Question

Could someone please provide me with a link to a tutorial that shows and explains how to send data from an android emulator to a Google app engine. I have googled it myself but am not having any luck finding any good ones. I am a beginner so any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Answer 1

The standard way would be to create a REST service on GAE and then call it from Android.

Server side: there are several REST libraries, my personal choice is Resteasy.

Android side: there are numerous examples how to consume REST services. You might also want to look at Android client from Spring.

For a complete example you might want to look at the source of LeanEngine.
