How does EmailProperty differ from StringProperty? Consider these two examples:
# example 1: store an e-mail address in an EmailProperty
class MyModel(db.Model):
email_address = db.EmailProperty()
m = MyModel()
m.email_address = db.Email("larry@example.com")
# example 2: store an e-mail address in a StringProperty
class MyModel(db.Model):
email_address = db.StringProperty()
m = MyModel()
m.email_address = "larry@example.com"
If you call
entity.to_xml(), an EmailProperty will come back as gd:email in your entity’s Atom representation.Note that using an EmailProperty does not provide automatic validation of email address formatting.
