After following the quickstart for setting up google-app-engine integration into phpstorm here https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/PhpStorm/Getting+Started+with+PhpStorm+as+Google+App+Engine+PHP+IDE
I can't upload code app engine and i get this error message. Is there anywhere in the settings of phpstorm something i shuld change tomake it work?
/usr/bin/python /path/to/google_appengine/appcfg.py -e account#gmail.com --passin --no_cookies update .
Usage: appcfg.py [options] <action>
appcfg.py: error: no such option: --passin
Process finished with exit code 2
JetBrains are a bit behind the updates in the SDK's appcfg.py changes and don't have support for configuring/customizing the upload arguments - I had a similar issue with PyCharm.
My recommendation is to perform the upload from the terminal, using directly appcfg.py following the SDK instructions, instead of uploading from the IDE.
This started after I ran the latest gcloud update:
gcloud components update
I used to be able to deploy my app something like this:
appcfg.py update app.yaml
Now I get:
appcfg.py: command not found
Is there a new gcloud command for deploying App Engine apps?
It appears the most recent version of gcloud dropped appcfg.py from the bin directory.
$ ls ~/google-cloud-sdk/bin/
bootstrapping bq dev_appserver.py gcloud git-credential-gcloud.sh gsutil
I found the appcfg.py script under the platform directory:
$ ls ~/google-cloud-sdk/platform/google_appengine
api_server.py dev_appserver.py LICENSE RELEASE_NOTES
appcfg.py ...
By linking it back to the bin directory, I was able to restore the command.
ln -sv ~/google-cloud-sdk/platform/google_appengine/appcfg.py ~/google-cloud-sdk/bin/
Credit to this post for helping me to figure this out.
gcloud app deploy is the preferred way when using gcloud. If you download the stand alone Google App Engine SDK, then you will have appcfg.py available.
https://cloud.google.com/sdk/gcloud/reference/app/deploy
in my case, i needed to run the following:
sudo ln -sv /usr/local/google-cloud-sdk/platform/google_appengine/appcfg.py /usr/local/google-cloud-sdk/bin/
using gcloud app deploy --project project-appengine-id
You'll need to have a billing account
As the standalone Google App Engine SDK is no longer available, if you still need access to appcfg.py (for instance, if you are trying to set up Eclipse for an App Engine Standard project that uses Python 2 according to these instructions), I have found that one way to get it is to just install an older version of the Cloud SDK.
Specifically, appcfg.py was apparently removed in Cloud SDK version 344.0.0 when the Python SDK was updated to version 1.9.93, so you can run:
gcloud components install app-engine-python
gcloud components update --version 343.0.0
and this will give you the most recent version of the app-engine-python component that still had that file.
I want to update the app in google app store.
But I can't download the code...
Is there any way to update the app without downloading the code?
I tried to download with python, google app engine SDK...
But
appcfg.py download_app -A
This command does not work giving this error
NameError: global name 'execfile' is not defined...
Can you help me with this?
The error you have shown may occur due to incorrect PYTHONPATH environment variable.
If you are using the Windows version of the GAE SDK, then do the following:
1) Go to Edit > Preferences
2) Correct your Python Path.
To know the Python Path in windows do the following in the Python IDLE or Python CMD:
import os
import sys
print os.path.dirname(sys.executable)
For downloading your source code try this:
download_app -A app_name -V version C:\path_to_project
You may or may not need to escape the backslash.
Replace app_name, version and C:\path_to_project with appropriate values
To know the version go to the app engine admin website appengine.appspot.com
I have uploaded a sample application to google app engine. Now I would like to download the source code for that sample application which I have uploaded. Is it possible? If yes, how can I do that?
You didn't specify if you are using Java or Python, but here's how you download python application:
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/uploadinganapp.html#Downloading_Source_Code
Run this command for your SDK:
appcfg.py download_app -A <application-id> -V <application-version> <output-dir>
This seems like it should be very easy but I don't see a link to it anywhere.
How do I download the source code of a google app engine project?
Windows
appengine-java-sdk\bin\appcfg.cmd -A <your_app_id> -V <your_app_version> download_app <output-dir>
Linux
./appengine-java-sdk/bin/appcfg.sh -A <your_app_id> -V <your_app_version> download_app <output-dir>
For completeness, using the Python implementation:
appcfg.py download_app -A $appID -V $appVersionNumber $downloadDirectory --oauth2
--oauth2 is of course optional, you can omit it and provide your email + app-specific password (or your password, and then go implement two-factor authentication right after), but it's easier, and frankly there's no reason not to.
Documentation.
App Engine actually recently added the ability for the developer who uploaded a given app version to download its source code.
As of October 2019 you can simply go to --> App Engine --> Services and in the tool dropdown select 'source' and the source code is there
Posting this since none of the listed methods above didn't take me to the code (by June 2021)
You could try accessing it through;
Google Cloud Platform > Debugger > choosing the version of the
Application from combo at top.
This will list the files of that version on the left pane. There is no way to download it automatically but you can copy-paste the code.
Hope you will find this helpful.
IMHO, the best option today (Aug 2018) is:
Under the main menu, under Products, go to Tools -> Cloud Build -> Build history.
There, click the ID of the build you want (for me - the last one).
Then, in the opened window (Build details), click the "source" link, the download of your compressed code begins.
As simple as that.
HTH.
Working with App engine standard using Go, the debugger isn't available yet.
How I managed to download the source code for an existing service was to use the gcloud tool.
First: Get the version id of your service using the app engine console or running: gcloud app versions list
Second: use the version and service name and run: gcloud app versions describe <versionID> --service=<service name>
the describe parameter will give you the storage locations for your source files that looks like this:
cmd/main.go:
sha1Sum: e3fe5848c2640eca7ac3591490e1debc2d3a9b09
sourceUrl: https://storage.googleapis.com/<project>/<file id>
Third: you can then use the storage console, using the file id, to download the files you are interested in.
this process based on java sdk
Its works for me...
Download Google cloud SDK
gcloud init
enter image description here
Follow through process of logging in using your credentials
Enter following command from SDK
C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\appengine-java-sdk-1.9.49\bin
enter image description here
Enter Following command to download source code
appcfg.sh -A [YOUR_APP_ID] -V [YOUR_APP_VERSION] download_app [OUTPUT_DIR]
Eg: appcfg.sh -A my-project-name-1234 -V 2 download_app C:\Users\india\Desktop\my project
Note: this progress based on java-appengine sdk so we use appcfg.sh instead of appcfg.py
check if your app is uploaded with same email id that is in your app engine. if you are not sure then in app engine > control > Clear deployment credentials and then click on any project, deploy to sign in again then use this
appcfg.py download_app -A {app id from google app engine} -V {1} "{c:\path}" --oauth2_credential_file=C:\Users\{your account name}/.appcfg_oauth2_tokens
change all {} to your needs
Things have changed since this question was asked so I'm adding an updated answer. Note that this only applies to GAE Standard Environment
Google has deprecated appcfg.py and so the previous responses appcfg.py download_app no longer works.
gcloud which is the SDK in use (it replaced appcfg) does not have the functionality to download your source code.
When you deploy your app via gcloud app deploy, it copies your source code to a bucket. The default bucket is staging.<project_name>.appspot.com. Your files will stay in this bucket for a maximum of 15 days before they are deleted. You can modify the rule so that the files are retained for longer or less time.
The file names in the bucket are encoded so you can't figure out what each file is unless you open it (i.e. download it). Google has a mapping of the encoded names to the original file names. To get this mapping, you run the gcloud app versions describe command and it will list the file names and their encoded names. To download the files, you have to manually click each url one by one. So essentially, you have to download each file manually and then use the mapping to rename them (or open the file, check the content and then rename them). Also note that downloading the files manually will not maintain the folder structure in which they were uploaded.
If you do not wish to go through all of the above hassles (imagine having to manually open each url for each file if you have a small to mid-sized project which has hundreds of files), our App - https://nocommandline.com - now supports downloading source code from the default bucket - staging.<project_name>.appspot.com (so far as your files are still there which means any deployment i.e update not older than 15 days from your current date unless you previously increased the deletion age on your staging bucket's lifecycle page).
In simple terms, you enter your project name, the version number and our App will take care of retrieving the original file name to encoded name mapping, automatically downloading the files and renaming them to the original names, while maintaining the folder structure.

Log in to the console.developers.google.com
Select the project you want to download the code from (Google App Engine Standard Envoronment).
Go to the App Engine Dashboard. Under Summary is Debug and Source. Click on Source.
Select each file one at a time and copy it (highlight the code, copy and paste into your local editor.)
Select the next file....
You need to use svn to checkout the files.
If you are on Windows, you can use tortoise svn for your GUI end.
Here are tutorials on how to do it, here is the related question.
