Should I use google-app-engine-django or app-engine-patch or neither or something else?

Question

Do I need either to make Django easier to use on GAE? Anyone had good or bad experience of either or any equivalent? Is there much difference between these? Which is easier to use?

Regards

Geoff

Answer 1

I am assuming you want to run django on app engine (otherwise using appengine API directly is the best solution).

Altho' Google App engine supports django 1.0 out of the box, django admin, auth doesn't work on it, as they are dependent on the models.

Appengine patch patches django to make the admin work even on the Bigtable API.

Appengine patch also often makes sure to work on the latest release of django.

So, again, "You should use App engine patch"
