GAE Feedback form handler

This script provides you with a feedback form that sends all messages to email. Useful when your web site does not have this function (e.g. it's a static web site).

Written by Justin Forest ([email protected]) in 2011.

Installation

To use this script add it as a handler to whatever path you want by adding this to your app.yaml:

handlers:
- url: /mail
  script: feedback.py

Configuration

The script reads configuration from a file named config.py, from which the following variables are used:

  • ADMIN_EMAIL -- this is where the messages will be sent.
  • SENDER_EMAIL -- this is from whose name they'll be sent.
  • RECAPTCHA_PUB, RECAPTCHA_PVT -- keys for [using reCAPTCHA][re] (not used if the keys are not defined).

How to use it

Install the script and access it using your web browser.  If you can successfully receive messages, you can either link to the built-in form from your web site, or use a customized form.  The following fields are used:

  • subject -- a subject line,
  • message -- tye main text,
  • sender -- an email address (will be included in the body),
  • back -- where to send the user to after sending the message.

You can use hidden fields for all, it's OK.

Known bugs

  • reCAPTCHA only works with JavaScript.
  • Form fields and messages are not localized.
