Google App Engine Installer
Project description
This package installs the Google App Engine SDK 1.9.10 to the site-packages directory of the current Python interpreter so that you can use from google import appengine outside the dev_appserver.py runtime. This is useful if you want to use the google.appengine.ext.testbed package in your tests.
It also makes all of the GAE commands like dev_appserver.py, bulkloader.py, etc. globaly available without the .py extension.
The installer works wit Virtualenv.
The version of this package mirrors the GAE SDK version (currently 1.9.10) and if there will be a new release of the SDK, there will be a corresponding release of this package too.
Usage
Create a virtual environment
$ virtualenv e
$ . e/bin/activateInstall with pip,
$(e) pip install gae_installeror with easy_install,
$(e) easy_install gae_installeror manually
$(e) git colone https://github.com/peterhudec/gae_installer.git
$(e) python gae_installer/setup.py install
$(e) rm -rf gae_installerThe installation will take a while. After it is complete, you should be able to import the google package:
(e)$ python -c "from google import appengine; print appengine.__file__"
/Users/peterhudec/demo/e/lib/python2.7/site-packages/google_appengine/google/appengine/__init__.pycAnd the GAE executables should be in the ./e/bin/ directory.
$(e) ls -l ./e/bin/

Runnig the python setup.py install tries to download the Google App Engine SDK for Linux/Other Platforms from the https://storage.googleapis.com/appengine-sdks/featured/google_appengine_X.X.X.zip URL. If the response mime-type is not application/zip, the requested version is deprecated and the installer will download the GAE SDK from https://storage.googleapis.com/appengine-sdks/deprecated/XXX/google_appengine_X.X.X.zip where XXX is the GAE SDK version matching the GAE Installer version. The downloaded ZIP archive will then be checked against a SHA1 checksum and extracted into the site-packages/google_appengine directory of the current Python interpreter and made available to the PYTHONPATH with the site-packages/google_appengine.pth file. GAE Installer also creates Bash executables in the scripts directory of the current Python interpreter which wrap the GAE Python executables in the site-packages/google_appengine directory.
