everything on GAE must be called via a URL (it must be a controller/ function). if you need to run it periodically look up how to do cron on GAE and create your cron.yaml.
@auth.requires_membership() is your friend in this case to limit who can call your controller. :) i have several of these sorts of things running on GAE, and it seems to work quite well.
