Read the documentation, where you can find a complete feature list, a detailed tutorial, the how to section and more..

The latest version is always accessible from http://babel.gae-init.appspot.com

Requirements

• Google App Engine SDK for Python
• Node.js, Yarn, pip, virtualenv
• macOS or Linux or Windows

Make sure you have all of the above or refer to the docs on how to install the requirements.

Running the Development Environment

cd /path/to/project-name
gulp

To test it visit http://localhost:3000 in your browser.

For a complete list of commands:

gulp help

Initializing or Resetting the project

cd /path/to/project-name
yarn
gulp

If something goes wrong you can always do:

gulp reset
yarn
gulp

To install Gulp as a global package:

yarn global add gulp-cli

Local testing

If you wish to run an automated test script, there is an additional dependency which can be installed with:

pip install -r test-requirements.txt

A simple test script framework, following the approach from the Google App Engine docs, can be run:

python main/runner.py --test-path tests ${HOME}/google-cloud-sdk/

This simply tests that the site can start up; that the index page exists (and returns an http response code of 200), and that a non-existent page returns an http response code of 404.

The test framework is easily extensible.

Deploying on Google App Engine

gulp deploy
gulp deploy --project=foo
gulp deploy --project=foo --version=bar
gulp deploy --project=foo --version=bar --no-promote
