The list from https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/libraries27?hl=en are the only libraries included with the SDK that you can use in your application. A quick grep of the sdk show that the dev server admin app is using requests for its log handler. I am not sure why your sys.path is preferring the internal lib directory or even including it for that matter.
These are the paths added by dev_appserver >>> import dev_appserver >>> dev_appserver.fix_sys_path() >>> import sys >>> print "\n".join(p for p in sys.path if 'google_appengine' in p) /Users/Josh/app/parts/google_appengine/lib/antlr3 /Users/Josh/app/parts/google_appengine/lib/fancy_urllib /Users/Josh/app/parts/google_appengine/lib/ipaddr /Users/Josh/app/parts/google_appengine/lib/yaml-3.10 /Users/Josh/app/parts/google_appengine/lib/rsa /Users/Josh/app/parts/google_appengine/lib/pyasn1 /Users/Josh/app/parts/google_appengine/lib/pyasn1_modules /Users/Josh/app/parts/google_appengine/lib/httplib2 /Users/Josh/app/parts/google_appengine/lib/oauth2client /Users/Josh/app/parts/google_appengine/lib/six /Users/Josh/app/parts/google_appengine /Users/Josh/app/parts/google_appengine/lib/simplejson /Users/Josh/app/parts/google_appengine/lib/django-1.4 /Users/Josh/app/parts/google_appengine/lib/endpoints-1.0 /Users/Josh/app/parts/google_appengine/lib/jinja2-2.6 /Users/Josh/app/parts/google_appengine/lib/protorpc-1.0 /Users/Josh/app/parts/google_appengine/lib/PyAMF-0.6.1 /Users/Josh/app/parts/google_appengine/lib/markupsafe-0.15 /Users/Josh/app/parts/google_appengine/lib/webob-1.2.3 /Users/Josh/app/parts/google_appengine/lib/webapp2-2.5.2 On Thursday, August 27, 2015 at 2:58:30 PM UTC-4, Matt Hanson wrote: > > Hello, > > I'm currently doing some testing locally and I use a virtual environment, > and had added the google_appengine path to my virtual environment. > > However, evidently recent versions of python-requests don't work within > GAE, however version 2.1.0 does.
