I have a php app, for the app engine. My app.yaml file is the following:
application: myproject-testing-112
version: 1
runtime: php
api_version: 1
threadsafe: yes
handlers:
- url: /edit.php
script: edit.php
....
- url: /profile.php
script: profile.php
my problem is that I have about 300 urls (i have 300 php files). As I can see app.yaml allows you 100 URLS. How to deal with this problem? Any ideas?
You can use regex patterns with PHP GAE just like in the Python GAE example referenced in the comment. So, give the following a try:
application: myproject-testing-112
version: 1
runtime: php
api_version: 1
threadsafe: yes
handlers:
- url: /(.+\.php).*
script: \1
To be clear, this one entry will map every URL that matches to a PHP file of the same name.
/edit.php --> edit.php
/profile.php --> profile.php
/profile.php/foobar --> profile.php (the ".*" at the end of the regex allows this behavior)
/someOtherPath will not match the above entry at all, since it doesn't have ".php"
Obviously, you can tweak the regular expression to get the exact behavior you're looking for.

I use app.yaml on google's app engine.
I have a link in my php file which is of this format: profile.php?id=1, which gives me the profile page for user 1. Any idea how to deal with this link in my app.yaml file? This is what I have done:
application: myappl-testing-858585
version: 1
runtime: php
api_version: 1
threadsafe: yes
handlers:
- url: /profile.php?id=
script: profile.php?id=
Your app.yaml file should only route the paths, like this:
handlers:
- url: /profile
script: profile.php
(Note that I also removed ".php" from the URL, since you really should not expose the internal file format like ".php", ".html", ".jsp", ".asp", etc. in your URLS... this is an implementation detail of your site, and it's both not good to bother users with it -- it makes for uglier URLs -- and it also makes it more difficult for you to modify your site in the future should you replace one implementation with another).
Then, in your *.php file, you simply use $_GET to test for the existence of / retrieve the ID.
In terms of your site structure, though, you may wish to consider changing the ID to a part of the path rather than a GET parameter if it is always a required parameter (just for URL nicety). In that case, you would register the handler like the following:
handlers:
- url: /profile/(\d+)
script: profile.php
... so that your URLs looked like "/profile/123" instead of "/profile?id=123".
My App Engine isn't loading php files in sub directory
Directory Structure is from the app.yaml file to the corresponding files.
I'm using Google's App Engine with PHP and my YAML code is below
handlers:
- url: /
script: soap/index.php
- url: /(.+)
script: soap/index.php
- url: /getGEO.php
script: soap/getGEO.php
- url: /tests/XML_GEOOffers.php
script: soap/tests/XML_GEOOffers.php "No handlers matched this URL."
- url: /tests/test.php
script: soap/tests/test.php "No handlers matched this URL."
I also having problem to past the parameters for GET in url
localhost:11080/trace ( my script shows false as no paramter sent )
but when i past the parameters into url, it shows blank page instead for true or false
localhost:11080/trace?Pub=0&Adv=0&SDK=0&HWD=c45f9a729cd349bdf3f21e96d305afde1028be99&OS=0&AV=nothing|nothing&BROWSER=IE&Sub=0&campaign=0&Demo=0
I'd greatly appreciate if anybody can help me with this.
You need to put / last, else it matches every url. Same for your /(.+) handler. Try this order:
handlers:
- url: /getGEO.php
script: soap/getGEO.php
- url: /tests/XML_GEOOffers.php
script: soap/tests/XML_GEOOffers.php #"No handlers matched this URL."
- url: /tests/test.php
script: soap/tests/test.php #"No handlers matched this URL."
- url: /(.+)
script: soap/index.php
- url: /
script: soap/index.php
You don't really need one of the last two, as they point to the same place.
I created a simple GoogleAppEngine application.
application: foo
version: 1
runtime: python27
api_version: 1
threadsafe: true
handlers:
- url: /bar
script: foo.application
When starting with dev_appserver.py . I get the following error:
EventListenerYAMLError: mapping values are not allowed here in app.xml
Thank you Greg the indentation fixed it.
handlers:
- url: /bar
script: foo.application
I try to understand the different between:
The class ChatsRequestHandler generate a template with the name chats.html
template = self.generate('chats.html', template_values)
In the application view its is named getchats:
application = webapp.WSGIApplication(
[('/', MainRequestHandler),
('/getchats', ChatsRequestHandler)],
The same occurs to me at edit_user.html v.s ('/edituser', EditUserProfileHandler)
How is it that the application knows that the getchats is connected to the chats.html aldo they have not the same name? I would expect that it should be the same name chats.html and ('/chats', ChatsRequestHandler).
The flow of your request goes something like this.
App Engine looks up your app.yaml file. It should contain an entry that says /getchats should be handled by application in somefile.py.
It then goes to this "application view" and matches it to a Webapp Route. In this case, that route is ('/getchats', ChatsRequestHandler).
Then it calls get or post on ChatRequestHandler, passing it the request and response objects.
The output of that is sent back to the user's browser.
You are free to implement ChatRequestHandler as you'd like. In this case you're doing so by reading in a template named chats.html, populating it with some values, and then outputting it.
So the application knows that getchats is connected to ChatRequestHandler. The name of chats.html is pretty arbitrary - the ChatReqeustHandler has to know it, but that is all. You could rename it.
Thanks for helping me:
The example a came up with comes from codenvy.com as a examples app.
1 App Engine looks up your app.yaml file. It should contain an entry that says /getchats should be handled by application in somefile.py.
Here is the app.yaml file of this application
application: 3kus-apps
version: 1
runtime: python
api_version: 1
handlers:
- url: /css
static_dir: css
- url: /js
static_dir: js
- url: /.*
script: devchat.py
So as you can see it contain's no entry that says /getchats should be handled by application in somefile.py.
What i found there is a util.js file witch has a function updateChat(). function updateChat() {downloadUrl(getRandomUrl("/getchats"), "GET", null, onChatsReturned);}.
However, I would like to know - under (1) how this should be handled by a somefile.py.
Could anyone point to roughly where in the python sdk code static routes get loaded into or accessed by http_server. This is to debug a failure to load static images. In eclipse I can see the static routes loading into var appinfo from the yaml file, and later can see the dynamic routes being checked during a request, but having trouble following the in-between steps.
Thanks
Update 11/30
Previously tried variations on the yaml, path, etc that were suggested in some docs and postings.
Here is one of them. In this case there is no 404 error, but image doesn't load and Firebug reports "Failed to the load the given URL".
app.yaml
application: crazywidget2
version: 1
runtime: python27
api_version: 1
threadsafe: false
handlers:
- url: /images
static_dir: /images
secure: always
-url: /.*
script: crazywidget2.py
secure: always
libraries:
- name: jinja2
version: latest
index.html
...
<img src="/images/xyz.gif" alt="XYZ illustration" />
...
crazywidget2.py
...
class MainPage(webapp2.RequestHandler):
def get(self):
template = jinja_environment.get_template('index.html')
self.response.out.write(template.render({}))
...
...
app = webapp2.WSGIApplication([('/script_send', ScriptSend),
('/resetkey', ResetKey),
('/admin', Admin),
('/start', Start),
('/', MainPage)],
debug=True)
def main():
app.run()
if __name__=='__main__':
main()
Update 12/3
Turns out that in the above case it works if the static_dir is relative, "images" instead of "/images". In the absolute case it tries to open that path as is. Maybe some other variations would work as well.
Here are three relevant code pointers (all in google/appengine/tools/dev_appserver.py):
class FileDispatcher
CreateURLMatcherFromMaps()
DevAppServerRequestHandler._Dispatch()
I would assume though, there are easier ways to debug your problem. If you would post your app.yaml and the path you access and the response you get, people here could start to help you.
Just a hunch: does it work if you add a slash to the end of /images in your handlers? Try replacing /images with /images/ in both places that you use it in app.yaml.
