Run Locally

1. Use the Admin Console to create capapult-140

2. 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.

3. Install dependencies in the project's lib directory. Note: App Engine can only import libraries from inside your project directory.

   cd catapult
   make build
   

4. Run this project locally from the command line:

   dev_appserver.py .
   

Visit the application http://localhost:8080

See the development server documentation for options when running dev_appserver.

Deploy

To deploy the application:

1. Deploy the application with

   make deploy
   

2. Congratulations! Your application is now live at capapult-140.appspot.com

Relational Databases and Datastore

To add persistence to your models, use NDB for scale. Consider CloudSQL if you need a relational database.

Installing Libraries

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. Other than libraries included in the SDK, only pure python libraries may be added to an App Engine project.
