the following bulkloader used:

transformers: - kind: mykind   connector: csv   connector_options:   property_map:     - property: texts       external_name: texts 

what should decoded?

upd. i've tried following

python_preamble: - import: codecs ...     - property: texts       external_name: texts       export_transform: codecs.decode('unicode_escape') 

but getting error:

unable assign value 'codecs.decode('unicode_escape')' attribute 'export_transform': code export_transform did not return callable.  code: "codecs.decode('unicode_escape')".   in "bulkloader.yaml", line 22, column 25 

somehow bulkloader documentation got removed google site, don't know read export_transform usage.

without knowing gae , workings got thoughts on may or may not forward:

• if try print string (ex: print the_string) , written thing in question use eval (ex: print eval(the_string)). or if want make unicode object, use: the_string=eval(the_string).
• by looking @ errormessage "... export_transform did not return callable ..." , actual name "export_transform" guess export_transform needs callable transformation-function. try define 1 externally or use lambda-function.

hope helps you...
