Question

I would like to be able to retrieve a class from the class kind in the python version of Google App Engine. How do I retrive the class with a string containing the class kind?

player_props = Player.properties()
country_props = Country.properties()

model_list = ['Player', 'Country']

for m in model_list:
  #foo = theClass
  props =  foo.properties()

Answer 1

You can use the class_for_kind("Kind") function, in the google.appengine.ext.db package. Your model classes must be imported for this to work.
