Before we get into how to build this as a cloud application, let’s start by thinking about how to build the back end of a chat application as a standard server program. So we’ll work on an application skeleton that does everything we need for chat in standard Python without using any App Engine code at all. What do we need? Looking at the basic transcript, we can see that the chat system has a virtual space, which users can enter and leave. After they’ve entered, they can send messages. Any message that gets sent will be visible to everyone who has entered.

The easiest is to create a form in the page that’s sent when a user asks to view the chat room. So the chat page will have a title at the top, and then it will have a transcript of what’s in the room, and then, at the bottom, we’ll have an entry form that takes the user’s name and the message that the user wants to post. To implement this in App Engine, we need to build one RequestHandler that implements GET for the chat room content and then build another RequestHandler that receives the POSTs and adds things to the chat.

Many App Engine facilities are modeled on or borrowed from the Django framework. Django Nonrel . com/projects/django-nonrel Django Nonrel is a variant of Django that’s focused on making it easier to use Django with platforms that aren’t based on relational databases, like App Engine.
