Question

I have a simple db.Model, that has one of the fields db.ListProperty(users.User)
For the REST server I used http://code.google.com/p/appengine-rest-server/

However, I can’t seem to update this field..
The app is currently password-protected but if anyone wants to take a look, I can make it public.

Basically, I have a form that I post using this jQuery:

    $.ajax({
        contentType: 'application/json',
        url: '/rest/' + $this.attr('name') + update,
        type: 'POST',
        data: $this.wsString(),
    });

where $this.wsString() is applying serializeArray() to the form and after that transforms the result into proper REST format ( + JSON.stringify at the end ).

Here’s the metadata for the entity, the “developers” field is the problematic one: http://toxik.appspot.com/Project.xml

Thanks for any help!

Answer 1

I managed to fix it: db.ListProperty(users.User) wants an object that serialized looks like this:

"developers":{"item":["[e-mail]","[e-mail]"]}
