python - Can you help me understand the nbd Key Class Documentation or rather ancestor relationship? -


i trying wrap head 'round gae datastore, not understand documentation key class / or maybe ancestor relationships in general not grasp. think want multiple ancestors.

example: wanted model our school's annual sponsored run charity; school kids run rounds around track , relatives (=sponsors) donate charity each round completed.

in mind, create following kinds:

  1. profile (can both runner , sponsor)
  2. run (defines (cf. profile) runs charity, rounds completed)
  3. sponsorship (defines (cf. profile) donates how run, whether donation has been made)

i've learned datastore nosql, non-relational database, haven't grasped it. questions are:

a. creating entity "sponsorship" best way in datastore? model has-a relationship (every run has sponsors) - since want track amount sponsored, whether sponsor paid , maybe more seems inappropriate

b. i'd query sponsorhips made single person , sponsorships belonging run. so, feel, appropriate:

profile --is ancestor of--> run profile --is ancestor of--> sponsorship run --is ancestor of--> sponsorship

is sensible? can see constructor key takes several kinds in ancestor order arguments. designed case? "run" , "profile" @ same "level" (i.e. mum&dad ancestors not father&grandfather) - constructor in python?

the primary way of establishing relationships between entities via key properties in entity model. no ancestry needed.

for example:

class profile(ndb.model):     name = ndb.stringproperty()  class run(ndb.model):     runner = ndb.keyproperty(kind='profile')     rounds = ndb.integerproperty()     sponsorship = ndb.keyproperty(kind='sponsorship')  class sponsorship(ndb.model):     run = ndb.keyproperty(kind='run')     donor = ndb.keyproperty(kind='profile')     done = ndb.booleanproperty()

the ancestry places entities inside same entity group (which can quite limiting!) while enforcing additional relationships on top of ones established model. see transactions , entity groups , maybe contention problems in google app engine.

python Tkinter Capturing keyboard events save as one single string -

is possible store keyboard events 1 string? code below stores 1 char , prints it. card reader or bar code reader, contains collection of character/ string not 1 character @ time. goal save char pressed text variable. from tkinter import * root = tk() def key(event): text= event.char text+= event.char print ("pressed", text) def callback(event): frame.focus_set() print ("clicked at", event.x, event.y) frame = frame(root, width=100, height=100) frame.bind("<key>", key) frame.bind("<button-1>", callback) frame.pack() root.mainloop() currently, creating text variable , everytime key() function gets called, , text stores last character typed. you can define text module level variable , , use module level text inside key function - text = '' def key(event): global text text+= event.char print("pressed", text)

android - InAppBilling registering BroadcastReceiver in AndroidManifest -

i'm implementing inapp billing in android app. works well, however, i'm trying decouple broadcast receiver activity manifest. suggestion in android's trivialdrive sample: // important: dynamically register broadcast messages updated purchases. // register receiver here instead of <receiver> in manifest // because call getpurchases() @ startup, therefore can ignore // broadcasts sent while app isn't running. // note: registering listener in activity bad idea, done here // because sample. regardless, receiver must registered after // iabhelper setup, before first call getpurchases(). currently there's class extends broadcastreceiver : public class iabbroadcastreceiver extends broadcastreceiver { /** * intent action receiver should filter for. */ public static final string action = "com.android.vending.billing.purchases_updated"; private final iabbroadcastlistener mlistener; public iabbroadcastreceiver(iabbroadcastlistener listener) { m
