A skeleton for building Python applications on Google App Engine with the Bottle micro framework version 0.11.6
See our other Google Cloud Platform github repos for other sample applications.
-
Install the App Engine Python SDK. See the README file for directions. You'll need python 2.7 and pip 1.4 or later installed too.
-
Clone this repository with
git clone https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/appengine-python-bottle-skeleton.git -
Install dependencies in the project's lib/ directory - App Engine can only import libraries from inside your project directory.
cd appengine-python-bottle-skeleton pip install -r requirements.txt -t lib/ -
Run this project locally from the command line:
dev_appserver.py <projectDirectory>
See the development server documentation for options when running dev_appserver.
To deploy the application:
- Use the Admin Console to create an app and get the project/app id. (App id and project id are identical)
- Deploy the application with
appcfg.py -A <your-project-id> --oauth2 update <projectDirectory>
- Congratulations! Your application is now live at your-project-id.appspot.com
This skeleton includes TODO markers you can search for to determine some of the basic areas you will want to customize.
To add persistence to your models, use NDB for scale. Consider CloudSQL if you need a relational database.
See the Third party libraries page for libraries that are already included in the SDK. To include SDK libraries, add them in your app.yaml file. All other libraries must be included in your project directory in order to be used by App Engine. Only pure python libraries may be added to an App Engine project.
Star this repo if you found it useful. Use the github issue tracker to give feedback on this repo and to ask for skeletons for other frameworks or use cases.
