Pylons works with appengine-monkey, but take somes fiddling on some systems. The main issue is that Setuptools' pkg_resources depends on some parts of the stdlib that are missing in App Engine.. things related to files and loading modules. Google added more support in SDK 1.1.9 but it's still not enough to run Pylons without appengine-monkey. The details are here: http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=60 You may also encounter the problem this guy had with "import site": http://groups.google.com/group/pylons-discuss/browse_thread/thread/cf4d9538891d31ad/0a687c703eb58fe4 The latest instructions for installing Pylons on App Engine are here: http://wiki.pylonshq.com/display/pylonscookbook/Creating+a+Pylons+application+for+Google+App+Engine There are some newer developments with pip and a newer appengine-monkey command (mentioned in the pylons-discuss thread), and the possibility of an unzip-and-go Pylons SDK, but I haven't tested them yet so I don't want to get into them just now. -- Mike Orr <[email protected]> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
