I'm trying to follow the hierarchical xml download instructions at http://bulkloadersample.appspot.com/ using the java appengine. This is my config file:
transformers: - kind: ParentEntity connector: simplexml connector_options: xpath_to_nodes: /Parents/Parent style: element_centric property_map: - property: __key__ external_name: key export_transform: transform.key_id_or_name_as_string - property: name external_name: name # Type: String Stats: 30 properties of this type in this kind. - property: children external_name: Children import_transform: transform.list_from_child_node('Children/Child') export_transform: transform.child_node_from_list('Child') And here is my ParentEntity definition: package experiment.dataexport; import java.util.List; import javax.jdo.annotations.IdGeneratorStrategy; import javax.jdo.annotations.PersistenceCapable; import javax.jdo.annotations.Persistent; import javax.jdo.annotations.PrimaryKey; import com.google.appengine.api.datastore.Key; @PersistenceCapable public class ParentEntity { @PrimaryKey @Persistent(valueStrategy = IdGeneratorStrategy.IDENTITY) public Key key; @Persistent public String name; @Persistent(defaultFetchGroup = "true") public List<ChildEntity> children; } But when I run the downloader, I get: google.appengine.ext.bulkload.bulkloader_errors.ErrorOnTransform: Error on trans form. Property: children External Name: Children. Code: transform.child_node_fro m_list('Child') Details: 'NoneType' object is not iterable Individual XML downloads of ChildEntities and ParentEntities work perfectly (without the children property, anyway), but I am desperately looking for a way to include the children property as nested XML inside of each ParentEntity. Are there any working examples of this anywhere, or does anyone have any suggestions for a next step? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine for Java" group.
