Hi

I have a web2py app on GAE at the moment that takes some of its data by 
parsing a hard coded string constant (at the moment, it has a half a dozen 
rows each with half a dozen or so columns). 
I plan to expand this to have dozens of rows and updated every couple of 
months with 3 or 4 more. I was planning on doing this with a local sqlite 
database but GAE doesn't seem to support it. 
My question is:

* if I import the db into the GAE datastore how do I update it? 

- If I have a local sqlite db then I can simply upload a new copy of the 
db. 
- Do I need to write a GAE interface to add entries (I'd rather do it 
locally). 
- Do I run a db restore from a local copy?
- if I add columns later does this cause GAE any heartache?

I am thinking that using the datastore will be overkill and I should just 
serialise the db (JSON? Configparser? yaml?) then deserialise/treat it as a 
dictionary in memory at run time.
Advice?

Thanks


Brendan
