Hi Jungang, Using a version control system such as SVN or Git is your best bet. App Engine is not intended to be used as version control. -Nick Johnson On Wed, Jul 22, 2009 at 11:46 PM, Juguang XIAO wrote: > This is not a usual case, but people at times may still need it. > > I have two machines, one in office and one at home, working on the same GAE > project.

In my case I just lost the source code of a project, although it is not a big one. (So I didn't get it into SVN or something like that.) It would be great to be able to download the source code from app engine. Gasp!

Is the GAE SDK causing more harddisk failures then average? Am I at risk having the SDK on my harddisk? I have it now for almost a year on my computer. Possible solutions for all coders losing there code. 1) use an SVN/GIT/SCCS/CVS/RCS/... version control system, repository on a different computer/harddisk (use an editor that can handle this VCS, have a look at emacs, never to late to learn it) 2) make a copy of the code daily on a different harddisk (there are tools for this, secondcopy and such) 3) make a copy of the code daily on an external USB device 4) make a copy of the code daily by FTP to an external computer. 5) make a zip of the code daily and mail it to yourself to a web based email account (eq. gmail) (7 Gb zipped code is a lot) (maybe an incremental zip) If one of these methods is too much you don't value your doodle. Hopefully Google will never enable the source download because google accounts are sometimes hacked and that means that anybody can borrow my code.

No, nothing the SDK does could conceivably cause your hard disk to fail any faster than any other program. > > > Possible solutions for all coders losing there code. > 1) use an SVN/GIT/SCCS/CVS/RCS/... version control system, repository > on a different computer/harddisk (use an editor that can handle this > VCS, have a look at emacs, never to late to learn it) A wise idea no matter what you're developing. There are many free or cheap source control hosts, such as github, too. Editor support isn't essential, though. -Nick Johnson > 2) make a copy of the code daily on a different harddisk (there are > tools for this, secondcopy and such) > 3) make a copy of the code daily on an external USB device > 4) make a copy of the code daily by FTP to an external computer. > 5) make a zip of the code daily and mail it to yourself to a web based > email account (eq. gmail) (7 Gb zipped code is a lot) (maybe an > incremental zip) > > If one of these methods is too much you don't value your doodle. > > Hopefully Google will never enable the source download because google > accounts are sometimes hacked and that means that anybody can borrow > my code. > "He, John Doo has written a nice app, lets look at his source code." > > 2009/7/30 Haisheng HU : > > > > In my case I just lost the source code of a project, although it is > > not a big one.

Hi Haisheng Hu maybe you work on open source code and don't fear anything being stolen. Partial* download capability can be implement easy into Google appengine. Just add the zipme script to your code: http://www.manatlan.com/blog/zipme___download_sources_of_your_gae_website__as_a_zip_file It's a great tool. How often did I forget which part of my code is just uploaded. With the script now I simply add 'zipme' to the URL + log in with my admin email and get a quick answer. Bye, Holger ___ * Static files aren't downloaded with the above version. But hopefully a future version will get them too. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.

[google-appengine] Re: When will appcfg.py be able to download/check out?
Another solution proposed in this group was to put the "appcfg.py update myappdir" in a script/batch file and before the appcfg.py call a commandline version of a zip tool that zips up the whole myappdir (except *.pyc files). Move the file to myappdir. In a static file directory, or create a handler that dynamically serves the zip file if you'r admin. Is it possible to create a static file dir that has login:admin in app.yaml? This way only an admin can download these static files. 2009/7/30 Holger : > > Hi Haisheng Hu > > maybe you work on open source code and don't fear anything being > stolen. > > Partial* download capability can be implement easy into Google > appengine. > > Just add the zipme script to your code: > http://www.manatlan.com/blog/zipme___download_sources_of_your_gae_website__as_a_zip_file > > It's a great tool.

It is possible. > Is it possible to create a static file dir that has login:admin in app.yaml? Supposed you have got a first level folder 'mystat' containing the 'list.txt' file, add the following to your app.yaml file: - url: /mystat static_dir: mystat login: admin After upload (appcfg.py update) of that code you'll need to log in with your admin mail to get the content via url ...appspot.com/mystat/list.txt --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.

The best bet would be a SVN driven App Engine where instead of app version one would choose a revision number. Uploading source twice seems very redundant to me.
