the Blogger Data API-example "blog this".

ex-ample:
Javascript Code of "Blog This!"
http://gdata-javascript-client.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/samples/blogger/blog_this/blog_this.html
It's 2 scripts:
script src="http://www.google.com/jsapi?key=YOUR_API_KEY"
script src="http://gdata-javascript-client.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/samples/blogger/blog_this/blog_this.js

The 1st is the account-Authenticating (in order to access to you blogspot for updating its content).
The 2nd scrip corresponds to a SVN linkt:

The Blogger Data API allows client applications to view and update Blogger content in the form of Google Data API feeds. Your client application can use the Data API to create new blog posts, edit or delete existing posts, and query for posts that match particular criteria.
Here are some of the things you can do with the Blogger Data API:

• Add a running list of blog posts and comments to a site.
• Create a desktop application or plugin that allows users to create and post entries from the desktop.
• Create a blog aggregator application.

http://code.google.com/apis/blogger/docs/2.0/developers_guide_protocol.html

Your client application can use the Blogger Data API to create new blog posts, edit or delete existing blog posts, and query for blog posts that match particular criteria.
In addition to providing some background on the capabilities of the Blogger Data API, this document provides examples of basic Data API interactions using raw XML and HTTP. After reading this document, you may want to learn more about interacting with the API using our client libraries by reading the programming-language-specific sections of this developer's guide.

http://code.google.com/apis/blogger/docs/gadgets/gadgets_for_blogger.html

At Google, gadgets are simple HTML and JavaScript applications that can be embedded in web pages and other apps, including Blogger.
Every Blogger blog is a gadget container.
example:
http://code.google.com/apis/blogger/docs/gadgets/gadgets_for_blogger.html#ExampleGadget
http://code.google.com/apis/blogger/data/blog_social_example.xml
It's a very simple Friend Connect powered gadget that takes advantage Blogger's JSON API. The gadget displays the current post's comments and highlights the comment if it was made by the viewer's friend. When the gadget is embedded in a blog, it will match the blog's style because it inherits several skin parameters.

Image Python API and Google app engine; modified Guestbook-hello application with images API;Python Imaging Library

1) Images Python API Overview:
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/images/overview.html

App Engine provides the ability to manipulate image data using a dedicated Images service. The Images service can resize, rotate, flip, and crop images; it can composite multiple images into a single image; and it can convert image data between several formats. It can also enhance photographs using a predefined algorithm. The API can also provide information about an image, such as its format, width, height, and a histogram of color values.
The Images service can accept image data directly from the app, or it can use a Blobstore value (http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/blobstore/). When the source is the Blobstore, the size of the image to transform can be up to the maximum size of a Blobstore value. However, the transformed image is returned directly to the app, and so must be no larger than 32 megabytes (this is potentially useful for making thumbnail images of photographs uploaded to the Blobstore by users).

2)Download and install
In order to use the Images API in your local environment you must first download and install PIL, the Python Imaging Library. PIL is not available on App Engine; it is only used as a stub for the Images API in your local environment. Only the transforms provided in the images API are available on App Engine.
The Python development server uses the Python Imaging Library (PIL) to simulate the Image service. This library is not included with the Python standard library or the SDK, and must be installed separately. See Installing PIL: http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/images/installingPIL.html. 
The WEBP image format is only supported if a suitable PIL decoder plugin has been installed.


The Images service can 1)resize (resize the image while maintaining the same aspect ratio), 2)rotate, 3)flip, 4)crop images, and 5)enhance photographs (The "I'm Feeling Lucky" transform enhances dark and bright colors in an image and adjusts both color and contrast to optimal levels). It can also composite multiple images into a single image.

The service accepts image data in the JPEG, PNG, WEBP, GIF (including animated GIF), BMP, TIFF and ICO formats. It can return transformed images in the JPEG, WEBP and PNG formats. If the input format and the output format are different, the service converts the input data to the output format before performing the transformation.

To install PIL on Mac OS X 10.4 and higher (http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/images/installingPIL.html):
Download the PIL .dmg file. For example, you can download the PIL 1.1.6 .dmg file from http://pythonmac.org/packages/py25-fat/index.html
Double-click on the installer to start the installation process.
Choose the correct directory.
Finish the installation.
---------------------------
3)Using the Images Python API
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/images/usingimages.html

3-a) Creating a image property AND Uploading User Images:
The first thing we need to do is update the model from the guestbook sample (http://ex-ample.blogspot.com/2011/07/first-steps-google-appengine-mac.html and http://ex-ample.blogspot.com/2011/07/hello-with-google-app-engine-and-webapp.html) to store the uploaded image as a blob.

3-b) composite image from multiple images: http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/images/functions.html
The format of the final composite image, either PNG or JPEG. The default is PNG.


Image is provided by the google.appengine.api.images module:

Properties:

• width
• height

Instance methods:

• crop()
• execute_transforms()
• histogram()
• horizontal_flip()
• im_feeling_lucky()
• resize()
• rotate()
• vertical_flip()

http://blog.golang.org/2011/05/go-and-google-app-engine.html
Google’s App Engine provides a reliable, scalable, easy way to build and deploy applications for the web. Over a hundred thousand apps are hosted at appspot.com and custom domains using the App Engine infrastructure.
Originally written for Python apps, in 2009 the system added a Java runtime. And today (@may 2011), at Google I/O, we’re thrilled to announce that Go will be next.

You don’t even need to have Go installed beforehand because the SDK is fully self-contained. Just download the SDK, unzip it, and start coding. Moreover, the SDK’s “dev app server” means you don’t even need to run the compiler yourself; everything is delightfully automatic.

Code is deployed in source form and compiled in the cloud using the 64-bit x86 compiler (6g), making it the first true compiled language that runs on App Engine. Go on App Engine makes it possible to deploy efficient, CPU-intensive web applications.

-----------deployment of Go apps 
Today (since @may 2011), through the SDK, you’ll be able to write web apps, learn about the APIs (and the language, if it’s new to you), and run your web app locally. Once full deployment is enabled, it’ll be easy to push your app to Google’s cloud.

http://blog.golang.org/2011/05/go-and-google-app-engine.html

Please note that deployment of Go apps is currently restricted to
trusted testers only. The appcfg.py tool will give an error message if
you have not been listed as a trusted tester.
To become a trusted tester, sign up using this form: http://goo.gl/otZVa
We will be letting in more testers over the next few weeks as we
smooth out any issues that arise.


We are no longer accepting Trusted Tester applications (@june 2011). We hope to open the
service to the general public soon.

Hello-guestbook with Google App Engine and webapp

This post is the second part of the post http://ex-ample.blogspot.com/2011/07/first-steps-google-appengine-mac.html (a tutorial for "dummies v0.0.0.1alpha").

The  7 steps of this tutorial (D,E,F,G,H,I,J):

• Creating a Simple Request Handler and the Configuration File
• Using the webapp Framework
• Using the Users Service
• Handling Forms With webapp
• Using the Datastore
• Using Templates
• Using Static Files

corresponds to:

1. http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/gettingstarted/helloworld.html
2. http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/gettingstarted/usingwebapp.html
3. http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/gettingstarted/usingusers.html
4. http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/gettingstarted/handlingforms.html
5. http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/gettingstarted/usingdatastore.html
   (Note: If you built your application using an earlier version of this Getting Started Guide, please note that the sample application has changed. You can still find the sample code for the original Guestbook application, which does not use ancestor queries, in the demos directory of the SDK)
6. http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/gettingstarted/templates.html
7. http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/gettingstarted/staticfiles.html

--D----part D--- "Simple Request Handler and the Configuration File"
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/gettingstarted/helloworld.html
your appspot.com=just a message.
--E----part E--- webapp:
In this above part-D, we have used the Common Gateway Interface (CGI) which is a standard (RFC 3875: CGI Version 1.1) that defines how web server software can delegate the generation of web pages to a stand-alone application or an executable file. Such applications, known as CGI scripts, can be written in any programming language, although scripting languages are often used.
Now we will use the webapp Framework far better than the simple CGI.
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/gettingstarted/usingwebapp.html

The CGI standard is simple, but it would be cumbersome to write all of the code that uses it by hand. Web application frameworks handle these details for you, so you can focus your development efforts on your application's features. Google App Engine supports any framework written in pure Python that speaks CGI (and any WSGI-compliant framework using a CGI adaptor), including:
 Django, CherryPy, Pylons, web.py, and web2py.

You can bundle a framework of your choosing with your application code by copying its code into your application directory.
App Engine includes a simple web application framework of its own, called webapp. The webapp framework is already installed in the App Engine environment and in the SDK, so you do not need to bundle it with your application code to use it. We will use webapp for the rest of this tutorial.
A webapp application has 3 parts:

• one or more RequestHandler classes that process requests and build responses
• a WSGIApplication instance that routes incoming requests to handlers based on the URL
• a main routine that runs the WSGIApplication using a CGI adaptor.

Let's rewrite our friendly greeting (see the guestbook.py) as a webapp application.
Edit guestbook.py and replace its contents with some lines of code posted at : http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/gettingstarted/usingwebapp.html:

at this step, your appspot.com=just a message. See the source of the page:

--F----part F---  the Users Service:

the user gets a log-in window just an email.

--G----part G--- Handling Forms With webapp:
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/gettingstarted/usingwebapp.html
--H----part H--- Datastore:

This latest version mixes HTML content with the code for the MainPage handler. This will make it difficult to change the appearance of the application, especially as our application gets bigger and more complex. Let's use templates to manage the appearance, and introduce static files for a CSS stylesheet.
Continue to Using Templates.

--I----part I--- the Templates:
HTML embedded in code is messy and difficult to maintain. It's better to use a templating system, where the HTML is kept in a separate file. This separate file has a special syntax to indicate where the data from the application appears. There are many templating systems for Python:
 EZT, Cheetah, ClearSilver, Quixote, Django...
You can use your template engine of choice by bundling it with your application code.

The webapp module includes Django's templating engine. Versions 1.2 and 0.96 are included with the SDK and are part of App Engine, so you do not need to bundle Django yourself to use it.
See the Django section of Third-party libraries for information on using supported Django versions:
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/libraries.html#Django

For the guestbook.py file, you have to :
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/gettingstarted/templates.html
1)Add 2 lines of import statements at the top,
2)Replace the MainPage handler with 10lines and this 2 lines:

path = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'index.html')
        self.response.out.write(template.render(path, template_values))


Finally, create a new file in the guestbook directory named "index.html".

template.render(path, template_values) takes a file path to the template file and a dictionary of values, and returns the rendered text.
The template uses Django templating syntax to access and iterate over the values, and can refer to properties of those values. In many cases, you can pass datastore model objects directly as values, and access their properties from templates.
Tip: An App Engine application has read-only access to all of the files uploaded with the project, the library modules, and no other files. The current working directory is the application root directory, so the path to index.html is simply "index.html".



--J----part J---the Static Files, example CSS file:
Every web application returns dynamically generated HTML from the application code, via templates or some other mechanism. Most web applications also need to serve static content, such as images, CSS stylesheets, or JavaScript files. For efficiency, App Engine treats static files differently from application source and data files. You can use App Engine's static files feature to serve a CSS stylesheet for this application.


Unlike a traditional web hosting environment, Google App Engine does not serve files directly out of your application's source directory unless configured to do so. We named our template file index.html, but this does not automatically make the file available at the URL /index.html.
But there are many cases where you want to serve static files directly to the web browser. Images, CSS stylesheets, JavaScript code, movies and Flash animations are all typically stored with a web application and served directly to the browser. You can tell App Engine to serve specific files directly without your having to code your own handler.


http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/gettingstarted/staticfiles.html



1) Edit app.yaml and add:

handlers:
- url: /stylesheets
  static_dir: stylesheets
--------
The new handlers section defines two handlers for URLs. When App Engine receives a request with a URL beginning with /stylesheets, it maps the remainder of the path to files in the stylesheets directory and, if an appropriate file is found, the contents of the file are returned to the client. All other URLs match the / path, and are handled by the helloworld.py script.
By default, App Engine serves static files using a MIME type based on the filename extension (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIME). For example, a file with a name ending in .css will be served with a MIME type of text/css. You can configure explicit MIME types with additional options.

URL handler path patterns are tested in the order they appear in app.yaml, from top to bottom. In this case, the /stylesheets pattern will match before the /.* pattern will for the appropriate paths. For more information on URL mapping and other options you can specify in app.yaml, see the app.yaml reference:

2) Create the directory guestbook/stylesheets and in this new directory, create a new file named "main.css"


3) Finally, edit guestbook/index.html and insert 3 lines : 2  head tags and a CSS line.

----------The PDF combines 3 technologies:

1. A subset of the PostScript page description programming language, for generating the layout and graphics.
2. A font-embedding/replacement system to allow fonts to travel with the documents.
3. A structured storage system to bundle these elements and any associated content into a single file (with data compression where appropriate).

-----2----brief history

PDF was originally a proprietary format controlled by Adobe, and was officially released as an open standard on July 1, 2008, and published by the International Organization for Standardization as ISO 32000-1:2008

google app engine: first account, first steps, hello (Go); create your first appspot.com; upload and deploy your first application; Go SDK

Account:
To get started, sign in to Google App Engine with your Google Account
(or explore our documentation to download our SDK and learn about what we're working on. If you'd like to sign in to Google App Engine with your Google Apps account, use the following URL:
https://appengine.google.com/a/YOURDOMAIN.COM/)

https://www.google.com/accounts/ManageAccount
see some snapshots:

verify account by SMS

only canada, japan, US; for other countries, 3 steps:

At the end, in your google account, you will see "app engine":

After the SMS step,

you will receive on your cellular phone, a message:

"Google App Engine Code"

and a code with 7 numbers (see below "enter account code"):

 You can create an Application:
NAME.appspot.com
(ex-ample.appspot.com)
and you have to choose your Application Title.

 read the agreement with google.

3 possibilities for the options for authentication

At the end, you succeed with this window (https://appengine.google.com/start/createapp_success?app_id=s~ex-ample):

-----------with your google account, you get this:

 if you click "My application" link, you get this window.

View Dashboard:

Menu "Administration"-"Application Settings":

You cannot change "Application Identifier" but it is the place where you can change the "Application Title" and also Authentication Options.

----------------

You need to upload and deploy an application before you can make Web history.

At the top of the dashboard: Read about using appcfg to upload and deploy one.

In the window "application registered successfully", 

"use AppCfg to upload and deploy your application code":

AppCfg Tool: http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/appcfg.html

The SDK includes a command for interacting with App Engine called AppCfg. You can use this command to upload new versions of the code, configuration and static files for your app. You can also use this command to manage datastore indexes and download log data.

A version of AppCfg is included with the SDK for each runtime environment. Select one of the following to view the appropriate documentation:

• Python Runtime - appcfg.py.

• Java Runtime - appcfg.

-----------------off line  Google App Engine documentation

You can download an archive of the Google App Engine documentation to keep on your computer and read while not connected to the Internet:

-----------------Go (programming languages)
Download page:
http://code.google.com/appengine/downloads.html
For Go (only linux and Mac OSX):
http://code.google.com/appengine/downloads.html#Google_App_Engine_SDK_for_Go

For more information on the Google App Engine SDK for Go.
You develop and upload Go applications for Google App Engine using the App Engine Go software development kit (SDK).
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/go/gettingstarted/devenvironment.html

The Go SDK includes a web server application that simulates the App Engine environment (including a local version of the datastore, Google Accounts, and the ability to fetch URLs and send email directly from your computer using the App Engine APIs).
The Go SDK uses slightly modified versions of the development tools from the Python SDK, and will run on any Intel-based Mac OS X (Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard users already have Python 2.5 installed) or Linux computer with Python 2.5

Then App Engine applications can be implemented using the Go programming language.

-----------------getting started (with Go and Google App Engine)

http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/go/gettingstarted/

This tutorial describes how to develop and deploy a simple Go project with Google App Engine. The example project, a guest book, demonstrates how to use the Go runtime environment.

In this tutorial, you will learn how to:

1. build an App Engine application using Go,
2. use the Go http package, to serve web pages,
3. use the App Engine datastore with the Go datastore API,
4. integrate an App Engine application with Google Accounts for user authentication,
5. use Go's template package, with your app, and
6. upload your app to App Engine.

By the end of the tutorial, you will have implemented a working application, a simple guest book that lets users post messages to a public message board.

---install SDK:

Follow the instructions on the download page to install the SDK on your computer.

For this tutorial, you will use two commands from the SDK:

• dev_appserver.py, the development web server
• appcfg.py, for uploading your app to App Engine

You can find these commands in the "google_appengine" directory of the zip archive.

--HELLO WORLD

http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/go/gettingstarted/helloworld.html

Go App Engine applications communicate with the outside world via a web server compatible with Go's http package: http://golang.org/pkg/http/

http://godashboard.appspot.com/package

This makes writing Go App Engine applications very similar to writing stand-alone Go web applications.
