No GAE Go SDK release for 3 month

[dcco...@gmail.com]

Hi,

Would you care updating us about the next release? It has been over 3 months since the last one, and Go 1.7 is not still supported and dev_appserver.py keeps eating cpu and spinning fans because of watching too many files in GOPATH.

Hi,

I too was struggling with high cpu, the way I handle is

In SDK edit go_appengine/google/appengine/tools/devappserver2/go_runtime.py

and change "get_restart_directories" to  watch for WATCHPATH not GOPATH

def get_restart_directories(self):

    """Returns a list of directories changes in which should trigger a restart.

    Returns:

      A list of src directory paths in the GOPATH. Changes (i.e. files added,

      deleted or modified) in these directories will trigger a restart of all

      instances created with this factory.

    """

    try:

      go_path = os.environ['WATCHPATH']

    except KeyError:

      return []

    else:

      if sys.platform.startswith('win32'):

        roots = go_path.split(';')

      else:

        roots = go_path.split(':')

      dirs = [os.path.join(r, 'src') for r in roots]

      return [d for d in dirs if os.path.isdir(d)]

then set WATCHPATH and run the app

WATCHPATH=<all the dir to watch> --enable_sendmail  dev_appserver.py
