A Flask / Google App Engine template for cookiecutter.

$ pip install cookiecutter
$ cookiecutter https://github.com/n8henrie/cookiecutter_gae_flask.git

You will be asked about your basic info (name, project name, app name, etc.). This info will be used in your new project.

NB: GAE will choke if your app name (as defined in app.yaml) has certain special characters. I recommend you stick with numbers, letters, and -.

Once you've made your new package, I encourage you to make a new venv with a GAE-appropriate Python in the directory, then test the basic setup:

$ cd new_flask_app
$ virtualenv -p $(command -v python2.7) venv
$ source venv/bin/activate
$ pip install -r requirements.txt -t lib
$ dev_appserver.py .
