[google-appengine] how to override skip_files on local dev server
skip_files seems to block access on local dev server. How do override that? I need it for minifying javascript, but having access to original files on dev server for debugging. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.

Hey Jscob, It sounds like you're either dangerously close to the limit or have a frightening number of js files. Perhaps you should write a build script to handle making the mods you need or removing the files?

Re: [google-appengine] how to override skip_files on local dev server
Put your JS files outside of your app's directory structure and have your build process put the minified files in the right folder. If you need to serve all of your JS files during development, you can serve them separately from your app using "python -m SimpleHTTPServer" from your root JS directory. You just need to update the
Re: [google-appengine] how to override skip_files on local dev server
have the same issue but i use different folders depending on local development or deployed app. i think the sdk should not block access to files. skip files should be there to avoid deploying those files and thats it.

Now that GAE has increased file deployment limit from 3,000 to 10,000, this should not be an issue for most people.

Re: [google-appengine] how to override skip_files on local dev server
i know its not an issue but what is the reason for blocking access to local files? in my case i have a dev environment and whats going to be deployed and i don't see the reason why i have to deploy those files too or switch back and forth in the skip_files section. no docs say that adding stuff to the skip_files section will affect access to those files.

Re: [google-appengine] how to override skip_files on local dev server
nick i understand what you are trying to say but i still think such things should be documented here http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/config/appconfig.html#Skipping_Files where the only thing said in the docs about the consequences of the skip_files configuration is: The skip_files element specifies which files in the application directory are not to be uploaded to App Engine. The value is either a regular expression, or a list of regular expressions. Any filename that matches any of the regular expression is omitted from the list of files to upload when the application is uploaded. this could avoid developers to spend hours to figure out whats wrong in their code. andreas On Nov 9, 2011, at 7:46 PM, Nick Johnson wrote: > On Thu, Nov 10, 2011 at 2:53 AM, andreas schmid wrote: > i know its not an issue but what is the reason for blocking access to local > files? > in my case i have a dev environment and whats going to be deployed and i > don't see the reason why i have to deploy those files too or switch back and > forth in the skip_files section. > > no docs say that adding stuff to the skip_files section will affect access to > those files. > > The dev_appserver attempts to emulate the production environment as closely > as possible. skipped files aren't available in production, so it makes them > unavailable in dev.

Re: [google-appengine] how to override skip_files on local dev server
Run dev_appserver.py -h You should see the help. Documented there is the flag: --allow_skipped_files Allow access to files matched by app.yaml's skipped_files (default False) If you start dev_appserver.py with it, you should get access to files which will not be uploaded to appengine. It's documented to work on the script, even though the online documentation doesn't highlight all the options. By default, the dev server behaves more like the production app engine (as expected). But that flag should do what you want. If the flag doesn't work, then edit your app.yaml and make sure you update it before uploading. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.

Hi Andreas, The dev_appserver attempts to emulate the production environment in every way possible; we don't document each case explicitly because it's the default behaviour. -Nick Johnson On Thu, Nov 10, 2011 at 12:51 PM, andreas schmid wrote: > nick i understand what you are trying to say but i still think such things > should be documented here > http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/config/appconfig.html#Skipping_Files > > where the only thing said in the docs about the consequences of the > skip_files configuration is: > > The skip_files element specifies which files in the application directory > are not to be uploaded to App Engine.
