The endpointscfg.py utility is no longer working due to the backing Google webapis-discovery service not being available.  This prevents the creation of endpoint discovery documents as well as client libraries.  This has been logged in the issue tracker, but has not received any attention yet:


The utility will always fail with a traceback like this:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Hi, 

 

I can see that you already asked your question on the issue tracker thread, this would be one of the right channel to obtain an answer to a technical question as the groups here is more intended towards general opinions, trends, and issues of general nature touching Cloud Endpoints.

 

Another good channel would be StackOverflow where you find a large community of enthusiasts and experts that you can get support from. Please make sure to include all relevant details and error messages which would help the community troubleshoot.

Yes, I was able to resolve the issue in our setup.  We use pip to manage our python libraries local to the tree.  We had to update the required version of the endpoints library in our requirements.txt file to point to the latest version, then use endpointcfg from that package rather than the one from the SDK.  The instructions (while not obvious) were added in one of the comments back from the GAE team in the issue linked above:


Good luck!

I did this 
cd lib
sudo rm -rf endpoints* google_endpoints* urllib3* requests*

cd .. 
sudo pip --no-cache-dir install -t lib google-endpoints urllib3 requests


install  successfully 

sudo chmod 777 lib/endpoints/endpointscfg.py 

sudo python lib/endpoints/endpointscfg.py get_client_lib java -bs gradle src.service.mobile_api.MobileApi


sudo python lib/endpoints/endpointscfg.py get_client_lib java -bs gradle 

src.service.mobile_api.MobileApi
