Hi

Disclaimer: completely new to Python from a PHP background

Ok I'm using Python on Google App Engine with Google's webapp framework.

I have a function which I import as it contains things which need to be processed on each page.

def some_function(self):
    if data['user'].new_user and not self.request.path == '/main/new':
        self.redirect('/main/new')

This works fine when I call it, but how can I make sure the app is killed off after the redirection. I don't want anything else processing. For example I will do this:

class Dashboard(webapp.RequestHandler):
    def get(self):
        some_function(self)
        #Continue with normal code here
        self.response.out.write('Some output here')

I want to make sure that once the redirection is made in some_function() (which works fine), that no processing is done in the get() function following the redirection, nor is the "Some output here" outputted.

What should I be looking at to make this all work properly? I can't just exit the script because the webapp framework needs to run.

I realise that more than likely I'm just doing things in completely the wrong way any way for a Python app, so any guidance would be a great help. Hopefully I have explained myself properly and someone will be able to point me in the right direction.

Thanks
