App Engine Python SDK - Release Notes
Version 1.8.0
===============================
- The Mail API now allows attachments with .zip and .gzip extensions as long as
the archives do not contain entries with blacklisted extensions.
http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=5933
- New Billing Enabled apps will no longer default to an email quota of 20,000
per day. Instead, apps will need to file a request through the admin console
to get email quotas increased.
- Admin console dashboard charts and reports for all users have been fully
migrated to the new, more reliable backend announced in 1.7.6.
- The maximum size of POST requests made through URLfetch has been increased
from 5MB to 10MB.
- Fixed an issue with the Mail API to prevent sending mail from a Google Apps
mail account that has been suspended.
https://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=6181
- Fixed an issue with the admin handler of the new dev_appserver failing to
import appengine_config automatically.
Version 1.7.7
===============================
- The Sockets API, which allows applications to make outgoing TCP connections
and send/receive UDP packets to the Internet using both IPv4 and IPv6, is now
available as an experimental feature for billed apps.
- The ftplib module is now restored. It depends on the experimental Sockets
API.
- Billing enabled apps will no longer be subject to a $2.10 minimum weekly
spend. Instead, apps will only be charged for their actual usage.
- Matplotlib 1.1.1, an experimental feature, is being deprecated and will be
removed in 1.7.8. Please switch to matplotlib 1.2.0.
- Fixed an issue where the dev_appserver Datastore auto ids assigned by the
scattered id policy were too large to be represented as floating point
numbers.
- Fixed an issue where the dev_appserver threw an exception on any Search API
call that used an index that was originally created as GLOBALLY consistent.
- Fixed an issue with NDB not serializing projection entities correctly.
https://code.google.com/p/appengine-ndb-experiment/issues/detail?id=215
- Fixed an issue with NDB not projecting structured properties correctly.
https://code.google.com/p/appengine-ndb-experiment/issues/detail?id=227
- Fixed an issue with task queues failing to resolve backend addresses in
the new dev_appserver.
https://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=5105
- Fixed an issue with the Search API allowing multiple documents with no IDs
to be in one put request.
https://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=8553
- Fixed an issue with sort by doc_id not translating correctly causing
InvalidRequest errors on the Search API.
https://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=8958

https://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=9003
- Fixed an issue with the new dev_appserver failing with ImportError.
https://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=9008
- Fixed an issue with Sqlite3 being unable to open a database file in the new
dev_appserver.
https://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=9031
- Fixed an issue with serving urls that contain unicode characters in the new
dev_appserver.
https://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=9040
Version 1.7.6
===============================
- The new and improved development appserver, which was previewed last release,
now becomes the default. The old development appserver has been renamed to
old_appserver.py and will remain available until the first release after
1 July 2013 when it will be removed from the SDK. For more information, please
visit
http://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/devserver
- A Go runtime has been added to the new and improved development appserver.
- The Debug log level for the runtime has been enabled.
- Improvements to the App Engine billing system will be rolled out gradually to
all apps. Fore more information, please visit
http://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/billing
- The application summary no longer displays the default version of a running
application, instead it lists the application as 'RUNNING'. In an upcoming
release applications will have multiple logical sub components, each of which
will have a default version. This UI update is meant to align with this
functionality.
- Projection queries are now a fully supported GA feature.
- The XMPP API now has multi-JID get_presence. This provides the ability to get
the availability of multiple users.
- Django 1.4 and Webob 1.2.3 are now promoted to GA.
- Apps now have the ability to fopen() files that are declared as static files
in app.yaml using the application_readable flag.
- The dev_appserver now allocates automatic ids using the 'scattered' id
allocation policy by default. For more information, please see "Specifying the
Automatic ID Allocation Policy":
https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/devserver#Using_the_
Datastore
- Admin console dashboard charts and current load/errors reports will be moving
to a new, more reliable backend. The change will be gradually rolling to users
of admin console over the next few weeks.
- New Search API quotas are now displayed in the Admin Console. These quotas are
not currently enforced, but will be part of the pricing model for the Search
API in a future release.
- The experimental Search API's ability to explicitly sort search results by
SortExpression.RANK_FIELD_NAME (i.e. _order_id) field in ascending order has
been removed.
- Globally consistent indexes in the experimental Search API are now deprecated
and will be removed in the next release.
- Task Queue tasks may now be added and deleted asynchronously. This allows
applications to perform common task queue operations without blocking. This is
an experimental feature.
- In the experimental MapReduce framework, shards that encounter Files API
errors will retry three times before the entire job fails.
- Google Protocol RPC now supports deserializing and reserializing of unexpected
fields.
- A new Google Protocol RPC field type for supporting datetime values has been
added. For more information, please visit
https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/protorpc
- Fixed an issue which caused an incorrect server error message when setting the
default version on the admin console, though the version was set correctly.
- Fixed an issue where get_indexes() didn't correctly populate the namespace
when run from the new dev_appserver.
- Fixed an issue with the new dev_appserver failing on invalid login cookies. It
now uses type="email" for email in the login form.
https://code.google.com/p/appengine-devappserver2-experiment/issues/detail?
id=36
- Fixed an issue with the new dev_appserver to have fix_sys_path add the
necessary libraries to sys.path making it now compatible with the testbed.
https://code.google.com/p/appengine-devappserver2-experiment/issues/detail?
id=45
Version 1.7.5
===============================
- New instance classes F4_1G and B4_1G are now available. These instances have
compute capacity equal to F4/B4 but with a maximum of 1G RAM instead
of 512MB.
- The Logs API stub now uses sqlite in the dev_appserver. Please note that the
--persist_logs flag is still needed in order for logs to be saved.
- The deprecated classes and functions AddError, AddResult,
ListIndexesResponse, ListResponse, RemoveError, RemoveResult, and
list_indexes were removed from the Search API in the SDK. If your app
references any of these classes or functions, you must deploy a new version
without these references before the next release of App Engine. If you do not
do this, your app may stop working in production.
- The Conversion API, which was decommissioned last release, has been removed
from the SDK. In a future release, the API will be removed from the runtime
and any attempt to import the library will raise an exception. Applications
in production that import the library should be fixed as soon as possible.

rather than the current property representation names ("INT64",
"REFERENCE", etc, see http://goo.gl/db5dT). This will affect the
__Stat_PropertyType__, __Stat_PropertyType_Kind__,
__Stat_PropertyType_PropertyName_Kind__ and their per-namespace equivalents.
This will also affect the displayed "Breakdown by Property Type" under the
"Datastore Statistics" in your application's console.

Version 1.6.4
===============================
- Billed applications that have specified additional logs retention over 1 GB
are now being charged for that storage at $0.24/GB/month (the first gigabyte
of logs storage is free). All logs beyond an application's specified storage
limit will be deleted. Please examine your Application Settings page to verify
you are retaining the desired amount of logs.
- Datastore statistics now show the amount of storage used by application
indexes.
- We have released an experimental utility for migrating your application's
blobs at the same time you migrate your datastore data. You can opt-in to
blob migration in the Admin Console when you start your migration.
- We have updated the experimental Backup/Restore functionality to include
the option to backup and restore to Google Cloud Storage.
- The NDB datastore API is now generally available. For full release notes
on the version 0.9.9 and 1.0.0 fixes that have been integrated into the
API see:
http://code.google.com/p/appengine-ndb-experiment/source/browse/RELEASE_NOTES?name=sandbox
- In the Python 2.7 runtime, Background threads are available as an
experimental release when using App Engine backends.

differs from the default skip_files list.
http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=7031
Version 1.6.3
===============================
- In the Admin Console, you can use new the Traffic Splitting feature to send a
certain percentage of traffic to a non-default application version. The
traffic is split by either cookie or IP address.
- Emails that are sent from Google Apps domains email addresses where the domain
has been set up to use DKIM will be signed: when an email was from a request
that originated on that app's domain or any time the email was sent from
an app adminstrator, including when that email is sent from a cron job or task
queue request.
- In the Admin Console, you can now choose how much and how long you'd like to
store logs. All apps get 1G for free and eventually will be able to pay for
more, while the amount can be increased this release we won't start charging
for the additional capacity until the next release at the earliest.
- The instances screen in the Admin Console now has a button to shut down
a specific instance.
- Each application log has a link to the instance that served the request. If
the instance is no longer serving requests, a message will be displayed.

- Fixed an issue so that a deferred task retries like a push queue task when
using the SingularTaskFailure exception:
http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=6412
Version 1.6.2
===============================
- The Admin Console Datastore Admin has added experimental backup and restore
functionality. The job occurs within your application and counts against your
application quota, including Instance Hours, Datastore Ops and Datastore
Storage.
- Developers can now specify how long a channel token will last until it
expires, with the default remaining two hours. Channel API quota is now
measured both in calls to create a channel and the number of hours of channel
time requested. The maximum hours of quota is the maximum number of channel
creation calls * 2, so free apps get 200 hours of requested channel token
time.
- Python Django now work with Cloud SQL without additional configuration. For
further information see https://developers.google.com/cloud-sql/.
- Task Queue API requests now include a X-Appengine-TaskETA header, that can be
used to measure task delivery latency.

Version 1.6.1
===============================
- You can now configure Frontend Instance Classes from your Admin Console's
application settings page. Three classes are available, with increasing
memory, CPU limits, and associated cost. By default, all applications use the
basic frontend instance setting of 128MB memory and 600MHz CPU.
- We've added new functionality to the Log API that will allow you to read your

Version 1.6.0
===============================
- On November 7th, App Engine will be out of Preview. The new Terms of Service
and previously announced pricing changes will be in effect. Additionally, all
paid apps are now covered by our SLA.
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/billing.html
- Paid apps can now specify the maximum pending latency for instances and the
minimum number of idle instances for your application in the Admin Console.
- Task Queue storage has been separated in to its own line item. Previously,
this was included in Datastore storage.
- We have released an experimental utility, available in the Admin Console, to
assist in migrating your application to the High Replication datastore. This
utility allows you to copy the bulk of your data in the background, while the
source application is still serving. You then need a brief read-only period to
migrate your application data while you copy the data that has changed from
the time the original copy started.
- Blobstore, which was previously limited to apps with billing enabled, is now
available for all apps.
- We have published a new article on Datastore Index Selection and Advanced
Search which explains our recent improvements to the query planner that make
exploding indexes unnecessary.
http://code.google.com/appengine/articles/indexselection.html
- Applications can now receive xmpp error stanzas at /_ah/xmpp/error.
- In the Admin Console data viewer, you can now filter by namespace from a drop
down menu, if applicable.
- In the Admin Console's Datastore Statistics, we now offer namespace suggest
for filtering stats.
- We have released as experimental the full MapReduce framework.
- The SDK now supports Python 2.7.
- Python 2.7 now supports WebOb 1.1.1, which has some significant bug fixes.
Applications that explicitly set the "webob" version to "1.1" in their
app.yaml files must update the version to "1.1.1".
- The mail_stub.get_sent_messages() call now returns EmailMessage instances.
- Fixed an issue when setting an initial_value in memcache.incr unexpectedly
returned a string.
http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=2012
- Fixed an issue where DoS stats in the Admin Console didn't work for High
Replication apps.
http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=5237
- WARNING: Starting with 1.6.1 (our next release, NOT this release), URLFetch
requests will honor the Accept-Encoding header. If your code sets this header
then it must be prepared to receive content of the specified type. For more
information please see
http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=4978
Version 1.5.5
===============================
- Python 2.7 is now available as an experimental runtime for all applications
using the High Replication Datastore. To upload your app to the Python 2.7
runtime, change the runtime argument in your app.yaml to python27. Note that
the dev_appserver does NOT work with Python 2.7 - you must deploy your
application in order test it.
- We have increased the number of files you can upload with your application
from 3,000 to 10,000.
- We have increased the size limit for a single file uploaded to App Engine from
10MB to 32MB.

Replication Datastore, which allow you to perform transactions across
multiple entity groups.
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/datastore/transactions.html
- We have released an experimental API that can write to Google Storage for
Developers directly from App Engine.
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/googlestorage/overview.html
- We have added a graph to the admin console that displays the number of
instances for which you will be billed.
- In the XMPP API, get_presence() is deprecated in favor of using the inbound
presence handlers documented in
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/xmpp/overview.html#Handling_User_Presence.
- The Task Queue API 'target' parameter now accepts a new value,
taskqueue.DEFAULT_APP_VERSION, which will send the task to the default
frontend version, rather than the version or backend where the 'add' method is
being called.
- In the URLFetch API, make_fetch_call() now returns an RPC object.
- Fixed an issue in the Admin Console where the "Run Now" button did not work
for tasks with a '-' in the name.
- Fixed an issue where the SDK did not decode Base64 encoded blobs.
- Fixed an issue to provide a better error message when using the Mail API to
send email to an invalid user address.

waiting for 30 seconds.
http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=5587
- Fixed an issue making it possible to modify request headers using the deferred
library.
http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=5861
Version 1.5.4
===============================
- You can now specify the maximum size for a blob in create_upload_url().
- Zigzag merge join queries will now continue scanning up to the 30 second
Datastore query deadline. For zigzag queries that used to generate NeedIndex
errors, many will now succeed. A small percentage will now instead timeout.
- The SDK datastore viewer in the dev console now displays the number of "Write
Ops" for each entity. "Write Ops" are the total number of entity and index
writes that were required to create the entity.
- Added API functionality for making calls to the Memcache API asynchronously.
