# App Engine Starter - Python 3 Edition

In August 2018, Google finally saw fit to bless us with [Python 3 on App Engine's standard environment](https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/gcp/introducing-app-engine-second-generation-runtimes-and-python-3-7). Goodbye Python 2 and webapp2, hello Python 3 and Flask.

**Built with**:

- [Bootstrap v4.1](https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.1/getting-started/introduction/)

- [Flask v1.0.2](http://flask.pocoo.org/)

- [Jinja2](http://jinja.pocoo.org/docs/2.10/)

Hosted on [Google App Engine](https://cloud.google.com/appengine/).

# Usage

First off, go to [Google Cloud Console](https://console.cloud.google.com/) and create a new project. Then install the [Google Cloud SDK](https://cloud.google.com/sdk/).

## Development

1. Open a shell.

2. `pipenv install` to install Flask to a virtual environment (must have [pipenv](https://docs.pipenv.org/) already installed).

3. `pipenv shell` to open a new shell with the virtual environment activated.

4. `python main.py` to start a local development server at http://127.0.0.1:8080/

## Deployment

If Google Cloud SDK is set to this project:

1. Open shell in the directory containing "app.yaml"

2. Run `gcloud app deploy`

If Google Cloud SDK **is not** set to this project you can switch to it with

```bash

    gcloud config set project PROJECT_ID

```

### References

Bootstrap's [starter template](https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.1/examples/starter-template/) was adapted slightly (navbar made semi-automatic with Jinja2, removed a bunch of stuff).
