Allow for local credentials #43

Closed nickretallack closed 8 years ago

nickretallack commented 8 years ago

The existing workflow for using remote GCS in dev is not so good. You have to manually acquire a token every hour and somehow get it into the code in a way that doesn't affect production deployments.

With this change, passing credentials to dev_appserver.py on the commandline will cause it to use the remote GCS API automatically.

Try it like this:

dev_appserver.py app.yaml
  --appidentity_email_address=CLIENT_EMAIL \
  --appidentity_private_key_path=KEY_PATH \
  --default_gcs_bucket_name=BUCKET_NAME

app_identity.get_service_account_name() evaluates to emptystring unless you passed the appidentity flags. Note that the file you must pass as the private key has to be in PKCS#1 format for app engine to accept it.
