How to run GoogleAppEngineLauncher in terminal window(Google cloud SDK shell)? - google-app-engine

Google no longer support the GoogleAppEngineLauncher program.
When I installed GoogleAppEngine I just got Google Cloud SDK shell. I want to add a project to GoogleAppEngine to run and deploy.
I got these links and cant understand
Local Development Server
Deploying the Application
How to do it both locally and online ?

"Quickstart for Windows" is a good starting point for new users of Cloud SDK.
In order to deploy and run a GAE application with the Cloud SDK you have to use shell/command prompt, as opposed to GoogleAppEngineLauncher where you had a GUI. The steps are:
Open the shell
In the shell change the current directory to where your project's app.yaml. is. For example: CD C:\Users\AQueue\Projects\MyGAEApplication and check that app.yaml file is there using dir command.
run gcloud app deploy
This should be it.
gcloud is one of the most important tools in the SDK that allows to interact with many products and services from Google Cloud Platform. If you want to read more about gcloud you can start with this overview.

Intellij Keeps Telling Me "App Engine SDK path is not correct.'

Trying to deploy my first Google Cloud Java app using Intellij. I've followed and read so many threads and have gotten absolutely nowhere on what is seemingly one of the simplest steps of getting this set up. I have installed gcloud CLI and followed the instructions here. After installing, I run the commands 'gcloud components update' and 'gcloud components install app-engine-java'. I see the folder located in both 'C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\Google\Cloud SDK\google-cloud-sdk\platform\google_appengine' and 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Cloud SDK\google-cloud-sdk\platform\google_appengine'. I installed as multi user after hours of trying to get the single user install working, so now I have both. When in Intellij I am creating a new Google App Engine project under Java EE, it asks to specify a Google app engine SDK. There are no options so I choose to select the path. I have tried both above paths and it only tells me 'App Engine SDK path is not correct'. What am I doing wrong?? The steps seem ridiculously simple and it just doesn't work.
You stopped at the general google app engine folder
You need to specify the full path to the java-sdk folder, see the image in this question.

Stuck on "Get Started" page of Google App Engine. "gcloud app deploy" fails

I am stuck on the first page of instructions for Google App Engine
https://console.cloud.google.com/appengine/start/reception
I downloaded and installed the cloud SDK.
"gcloud init" worked.
I am stuck at "Deploy to App Engine".
When I type "gcloud app deploy" in Terminal, I get two errors.
"ERROR: An app.yaml (or appengine-web.xml) file is required to deploy this directory as an App Engine application. Create an app.yaml file using the directions at https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/flexible/python/configuring-your-app-with-app-yaml"
The page it says to go to does not give directions for creating the file. What is the command? Also, why is this error happening at all? If I follow the instructions on the Get Started page, I should not get an error. Some instructions must be missing or something not working when I install the SDK.
The second error I get is "ERROR: (gcloud.app.deploy) [/Users/chucky] could not be identified as a valid source directory or file."
Again, there must be instructions missing because I am following them.
Screen Shot
gcloud app deploy is for deploying a project. This means you need to have a folder with a sample project. The project will need to have an app.yaml file. Essentially, the steps are
Download and install the Google Cloud SDK
Run gcloud init to initialize the SDK (this makes you to login to Google and grant access to gcloud to your account; also sets up your default project)
Create your project (or copy an existing one) where project is your App i.e. the application you are working on. This project should have an app.yaml file.
Then deploy your project to production by running gcloud app deploy. You first have to change directory to your project folder. If you don't want to do this, you have to specify the full path to your app.yaml file.
An alternative for steps 3 - 4 is to use a Graphical User Interface (GUI) like one from us - https://nocommandline.com . You just click a button to create a new project and it will create a shell project ('hello world') with all the necessary files. To deploy your project, you also click another button 'Deploy' and it will take care of deploying your project.
From the link:
https://console.cloud.google.com/appengine/start/reception
First, you need to download the resources. You can use the Cloud SDK, Cloud Shell, directly download from github or other terminal to download the resources files. For example, you want to deploy a Python app using Cloud SDK in Windows OS:
Install and open Cloud SDK.
Copy the resources file from github:
From Cloud SDK run:
git clone https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/python-docs-samples
Go to directory of your application files:
cd python-docs-samples/appengine/standard_python3/hello_world
Deploy and browse your application
Deploy using the command:
gcloud app deploy --project PROJECTID
Browse using the command:
gcloud app browse --project PROJECTID
If you see the Hello World! you've successfully deployed your application.

Can i deploy local angularjs project to google application engine using ng deploy?

I created a project local to my Mac using "ng cli"; specifically, "ng new." The project runs locally, but I do not have a way to deploy it to my account in Google Cloud - Application Engine.
I followed Google's tutorial using gcloud commands in the cloud, but I prefer to use my local repository, etc. as I am running on "free" until I can afford to be commercially viable.
NOTE: You require a billing account to create a REPO in GCP.
I finally found this in Google Cloud Platform documents. So, basically, follow the instructions on Google's site (url below) to create a remote and local project. Write your code in the local repo, then push to the remote repo and deploy with gcloud commands (in a cloud shell in https://console.cloud.google.com) from the remote repository.
https://cloud.google.com/source-repositories/docs/quickstart
(Synopsis of the page intro ...)
Quickstart
This page shows you how to set up a GCP repository and use it as a remote for a local Git repository.
The sections below walk you through the steps of creating a local Git repository that contains files for a sample App Engine application, adding a GCP repository as a remote, and pushing the contents of the local repository.

Google App Engine Launcher (Python)

I am trying to run the Google App Engine Launcher. it pops up an error message saying that it cannot find the Python binary file. But I have downloaded and installed Python 2.7.8. The error message suggests me to modify the Python path in Edit-> Preference. But the Launcher is not responding, it just hangs on there for ever. What should I do?
You need to add python to the PATH Variable.
Refer to How to add to the pythonpath in windows 7?
Install Latest App Engine
https://cloud.google.com/sdk/?hl=en_US dowloand Google Cloud SDK install it then launch Google App Engine launcher --> Edit-->Preferences-->Python path--> new python should be installed probably under the drive C: then select Python27x86 -->pythonw.exe.

Laravel FatalErrorException on Google App Engine

I am deploying an laravel application in Google app engine. I have installed SDK and python. I can deploy it online, but when run application localy by using this command from cmd:
python dev_appserver.py --skip_sdk_update_check=yes --port=8080
--admin_port=8000 --php_executable_path=C:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.12\php-cgi.exe C:\laravel-master
It shows the following error:
PHP Startup: apc_fcntl_create: could not open C:\Windows\.apc.a02796
I really need to run it locally because I can't test it online. Pls I need some help
This is the cache having problems to send write file commands to your Windows SO. A workaround to this is to locally disable APC by adding:
apc.enabled = "0"
Do your SDK php.ini file.
But it's better to keep it enabled in your GAE application.
