new to GoogleAppEngine, this question may sound stupid... I just followed the tutorial and created a Python app, which is running locally with GoogleAppEngineLauncher. Is there any way to shell into the Python shell and play with the data structures in the running app? Thanks!
For locally running apps you can use the Interactive Console that is included in the Development Console.
The Interactive Console allows developers to enter arbitrary Python code into a web form and execute it inside their app's environment.
Navigate to the Development Console, click the Interactive Console link on the left pane. A form with a single text area will display. Enter any arbitrary Python code you like in the text area, then submit the form to execute it.
You can find more details in App Engine Python Developement Server documentation.

I'm hosting a website on AWS. Its a web interface with a SQL database. The website will be used to:
1. View results of query from Database
2. Insert data into database
3. View the data and update it where needed.
The codes and connections works file when I run the application on localhost (Apache on my C drive). But we want to host it on AWS so that people around me can use it.
So, In AWS I uploaded the code on EC2 and installed apache on it, all the html links are working but the python file is simply displaying the code.
I'm guessing it has something to do with the shebang. Currently my code has the following shebang:
#!C:\Python27\python.exe
Can someone guide me if its the shebang or if there is something else i need to do.
I have installed boto, but not sure what to do next. The AWS website and most of the forums talk about using Elastic Beanstalk. I want to host a fully functioning Python webApp on AWS without using Elastic Beanstalk.
When apache displays code, that is a clear sign that Apache is not configured properly to execute python. You should look to see if mod_python is installed and configured correctly.
Also, #! is generally used with Linux not windows. If apache/mod_python is installed and configured correctly I can't imagine what code you'd have that would need #! since the .py extension would be enough.
IF your EC2 instance is indeed running Linux, and your code does indeed need #! try:
#!/bin/python
OR
#!/usr/local/bin/python
(Depends on where the python binary is, and those are the most common locations.)
If your EC2 instance is running Windows then "Unless you are using cygwin, windows has no shebang support"
Hi have you logged into your EC2 instance through the endpoint and then run your script, from the command line. I have some experience with EC2 running apache2 only my application was written in Java, having previously used python scripts I was able to run them by logging into my EC2 instance, you can do this from AWS management console. hope this helps you somewhat.
I am trying out Python on Bluemix. To do this I decided to move an example from a book that worked fine on my Windows laptop. I created the Bluemix example app, then replaced the index.html with the html file from the sample and built my directory tree beneath the static directory. The server starts up fine and displays the intro html file as expected, but when I click on a link that should build my html page it displays the page as source code instead of executing it. On Windows this works perfectly. My call to the page looks like this:
My data.
I have heard that on Linux environments you sometimes need to point out the python executable, but what is the right location of that in a Bluemix environment? Another question would be if the .py file is set to executable, but I don't know how you set such a thing in Bluemix.
All help is appreciated.
You can't directly link to a Python file in a Python webapp. You should use something like Flask to serve your application. Flask can do routing for you.
Additionally, in Bluemix and other Platform as a Services' there is only a single binary entry point to your app. You can't have multiple binary entry points.
See this example app on how to deploy a Flask app.
Additionally, you can click the button below to directly deploy the example app to Bluemix.
It is really weird that after clicking run button, it does nothing and also no log and show a clock sign on the first column.
It works normally before. However, after I messed up my python environment, the google coursebuilder can't run web application. That's my guessing. When I run which python.it only shows:
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/python
These let me feel like I have no way to solve it!Are there anyone who came across this problem before? Any ideas or suggestions?
Updated: I follow suggestions to use command line to run web application on GAE. It reminds me here:
Update: The error message shows that GAE can't get the allocated port and domain. The reason why it happens is that when I use command line to run the web application, I also open GAE GUI to run a web app with the same port number.
So the way to solve it is to close the GAE GUI and free the port. Or we also could designate another kind of port number with command line.(--port=XXXX and --admin_port=YYYY). Or take a look at the doc:
Again thanks for the help of Mihail R!
The OP had multiple issues with GAE setup which were resolved by simply reinstalling the GAE Launcher and making sure the app was first copied into Applications from the .dmg file, then ran from the Applications instead of from inside the .dmg file, and appropriate permissions were suppose to be given so that GAE Launcher created the symlinks it needed to work properly.
More instructions on proper GAE SDK installation can be found here: https://cloud.google.com/appengine/downloads after clicking on the needed SDK and then the OS the SDK will be installed on.
I would like to run my python application locally in any web browser. I am using PyCharm IDE for my Python apps but when i run app from IDE, its not running in browser. How it can solve?
Thanks.
you should run your code using server. there are many available. for example:
a link
your code will be triggered through demo_app in example from link above.
I have downloaded and installed python on my PC. I am learning python at this moment so I am a beginner.
Is there anyway I could execute python scripts in localhost (Apache) and view them in a web browser as we do with PHP? I am executing the python scripts from CLI at this moment.
Although there are multiple solutions, I would take a look at mod_python. Unfortunately, in my experience it is not the easiest thing in the world to set up and requires making changes to httpd.conf, but this tutorial is helpful (and gives some examples).
Google App Engine SDK for Python includes a local web server application that simulates the App Engine environment. It allows for instant server script changes by just saving the file and refreshing the browser.
The development tutorial is here
Once you have your web site working locally, it is easy to deploy it live on Google's App Engine servers.
