GAE tools poll
Andrey Tarantsov
Two quick poll-style questions for you (interested in replies from
both Java and Python developers):
1) IDEs / editors: Are you Java guys using Eclipse or IDEA or
something else? Are you Python guys using PyDev, another IDE, Vim/
Emacs or a regular text editor?
2) If you could pick a single tool to be developed to help you write
App Engine apps, what would it be?
Your answers would provide a very interesting insight into our
community, and would also greatly help us at OnPositive to build more
App Engine tools as well as extend our AppWrench with more interesting
features.
If enough people reply, we'll sum up and post the results here after a
while.
Andrey.

A tool that I would like to see would be a graphical datastore
modeller/designer to generate Model classes for me. I find it a bit
annoying to have to remember all of the different Types and the
different parameters that various types take, especially when Google's
documentation of it is so atrocious.

(When I write Java, I also use Emacs. I'm one of those IDE-haters. I'm probably not very representative of your target audience.)
No particular tool deficiency comes to mind.

I second Adams request for a graphical designer. Not absolutely
necessary, but a nice tool in my opinion.

Notepad++ :)
The one of the most important update would be SIMPLE way to edit the
code in the browser itself. ... Like you have some Modal in datastore
which stores the code and executed in sort of JavaScript eval style. I
am quite noob to write big applications but guess It may work this
way, something similar to *shell* open source project. The open source
project shell evaluates the codes sent from browser. So basically a
{ Javascript syntex hilighter + DataModal storing the edited code }.
Much easier access to Live Datastore. Developing a facebook app on
local dev_server is a pain for bi-directional API calls.

code is developed, It could be easily copied to hard-copy ;) and
handled to app.yaml

Any tool to help us design/generate code to persist data on BigTable would be very, very helpful, IMHO.
For those that never used JDO our JPA, and wants to code for GAE, learning all the persistence stuff is painful.

I'd like to see the dev environment round out the tools for local
debugging. Specifically, I'd like a turn-key solution for running cron
jobs and a sendmail stub.

management. GVim or MacVim with ctags for editing. I've used PyDev/
Eclipse for some projects.
Next year we may adopt Hadoop for analytics so I'll probably bite the
bullet and move to Eclipse to get everything under one roof.

I don't particularly need anything, but I would like a server-side
debug tool to allow me to run a GAE web app with debug functionality
on the server-side. Obviously, I use logging, but a step-by-step tool
would be more productive.
