The Beginning of Globalization

In order to promote GAEO, we need lots of documentation for references or guides to develop. Officially, we only provide an English-based documentations. However, there're many people around the world doesn't read English (very well). So we want to make our documentation global.

Now, there're some enthusiastic people help us to translate the GAEO Documentation to Français and 正體中文 versions. If you want to help us to translate the docs to more languages, please leave message here and I will tell you how to start.

Thanks you who help promoting GAEO :-)

0.2 Beta

We release GAEO 0.2 Beta today. It means that GAEO 0.2 is coming soon :-)

In 0.2-beta, an global initialization method has been added. You can write your global initialization script in ${APPHOME}/application/controllers/application.py's application_init method. The GAEO's dispatcher will automatically detect if the ApplicationController exists.

For more information, please refer to the CHANGELOG (rev 135).

We are glad to release the GAEO 0.2 alpha-2 for you. You can download it here and try the new features.

In 0.2a2, we've added the following features:

  • GAEO ZIP Import

    Due to the disk space limitation on App Engine, we enabled your project importing GAEO through a zipped file. You can directly zip the gaeo directory in your project or create a new gaeo project by adding --zipped option while using gaeo.py script. (i.e., # gaeo.py --zipped foo)

  • A Basic Plugin Generation Script

    Now you can use
    gaeogen.py plugin FooBar
    to generate a blank GAEO plugin in your project.

  • Default Static Files Expiration

    We've added default_expiration config in the created app.yaml file. You can refer to this article to adjust the expiration duration in this file.



0.2a2 is also fixed a1's installation error (lacks of main.py). Please try this new version of GAEO and keep watching and sending us feedbacks :-)
