gap 0.4.3

Google App Engine project bootstrap

Google App Engine is excellent technology but there is a gap.

If you are missing

• use of pip with Google App Engine,

• cooperation of appengine and virtualenv,

• possibility to add any module to your python path,

then this barebone could be at least an inspiration for you.

How to use (fill) the gap?

• Install Google Appengine SDK

• Create a virtualenv for you project (not necessary but recommended)

• pip install gap

• Go to directory of your new GAE project.

• gap start-project

• Add your dependencies to requirements.gip (format of pip requirements file)

• Install any packages using bin/gip same way as you are used to do it with pip.

• To create a new module in your application run gap start-app

• Keep your code inside src/app.

• You can use any lib you have installed using gip in your project (in dev_server, shell as well as on appengine server).

See Gap wiki page for more informations.

Any ideas, thoughts, fixes (specially corrections of my English :) are welcome!
