Need Help Creating GAE Datastore Loader Class?

Need Help Creating GAE Datastore Loader Class for uploading data using appcfg.py? Any other way to simplified this process? is there any detailed example better than here

When try using bulkloader.yaml:

Uploading data records.

In the process, i've downloadeded csv data manually inserted on appspot.com. While i try to upload my own csv data, the column order should made exactly like csv downloaded from appspot.com? how about blank value?

I've created config.yaml with bulkloader config, and also written simple helper function to process None-references. I don't know why it's not done in original helper.

The helper (file helpers.py is very simple, just place it to the same directory where you placed config.yaml):

from google.appengine.api import datastore
def create_foreign_key(kind, key_is_id=False):
  def generate_foreign_key_lambda(value):
    if value is None:
      return None

    if key_is_id:
      value = int(value)
    return datastore.Key.from_path(kind, value)

  return generate_foreign_key_lambda

And this is cut from my config.yaml:

python_preamble:
- import: helpers # this will import our helper
[other imports]
...
- kind: ArticleComment
  connector: simplexml
  connector_options:
    xpath_to_nodes: "/blog/Comments/Comment"
    style: element_centric

  property_map:
    - property: __key__
      external_name: key
      export_transform: transform.key_id_or_name_as_string

    - property: parent_comment
      external_name: parent-comment
      export_transform: transform.key_id_or_name_as_string
      import_transform: helpers.create_foreign_key('ArticleComment')
      #                 ^^^^^^^ here it is
      #                 use this instead of transform.create_foreign_key

It looks like you have reference properties with None values, such values are handled incorrectly by bulkloader's helpers.
