Filtering by entity key name in Google App Engine on Python
- by Bemmu
On Google App Engine to query the data store with Python, one can use GQL or Entity.all() and then filter it. So for example these are equivalent
gql = "SELECT * FROM User WHERE age >= 18"
db.GqlQuery(gql)
and
query = User.all()
query.filter("age >=", 18)
Now, it's also possible to query things by key name. I know that in GQL you do it like this
gql = "SELECT * FROM User WHERE __key__ >= Key('User', 'abc')"
db.GqlQuery(gql)
But how would you now use filter to do the same?
query = User.all()
query.filter("__key__ >=", ?????)
