addExtensionElements?

[h...@mikehowarth.co.uk]

Hi

I was wondering if someone can help me.

I'm wanting to add a publishing_priority to my Google Base feed.

From reading the docs I need to add the following:

<entry xmlns:app='http://purl.org/atom/app#'
xmlns:gm='http://base.google.com/ns-metadata/1.0'>
...
<app:control>
<gm:publishing_priority>high</gm:publishing_priority>
</app:control>
</entry>

From a bit of guesswork I'm guessing I need to acheive this using the
addExtensionElements object. Can someone provide me with an example of
how this *actually* works.

Currently I've been adding the entire xml message in, but I'm not
getting very far.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello Mike,

I think the following should fit your needs. I'm assuming that you
already have an object named entry.

extension = atom.ExtensionElement(namespace='http://base.google.com/ns-
metadata/1.0', tag='publishing_priority', text='high')
entry.extension_elements.append(extension)

You can check to make sure that the XML looks reasonable by calling
str(entry).

I had hoped that you would never need to use extension_elements, but
it would seem that the gdata.base module is missing a class for the
publishing_priority XML element which was added to the Google Base
API. Would you mind filing an issue to remind us to add this element?

Thank you,

Thanks for this Jeff. Having read through the code again this afternoon I'd
figured as much.

I've added an item to the list to jog your memory!

Hello Mike,

Thank you,

Jeff
