Why not store the value as a string in the datastore and convert it to
a decimal in Python on retrieval? You could use a property on your
model to do it for you.
import decimal
class MyModel(db.Model):
string_amount = db.StringProperty(multiline=False)
def get_amount(self):
return decimal.Decimal(self.string_amount)
def set_amount(self, value):
self.string_amount = str(value)
amount = property(get_amount, set_amount)
