glcoud app deploy no longer uses Dockerfile

[Dan Cogswell]

I've got a python 3.6 application I deploy to the flexible environment. It uses a Dockerfile, which is in the same directory as app.yaml.

Last week, it was using the Dockerfile correctly. Now, when I gcloud app deploy, it looks like it's ignoring the Dockerfile and instead uploading all files to Google Cloud Storage, just like it does in the standard environment. I believe I updated gsutil and or/gcloud last week. I'm on ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS

Is there something in the new gsutil that ignores the Dockerfile? I'm currently running:

Google Cloud SDK 280.0.0
alpha 2020.02.07
app-engine-python 1.9.88
app-engine-python-extras 1.9.88
beta 2020.02.07
bq 2.0.53
cloud-datastore-emulator 2.1.0
core 2020.02.07
gsutil 4.47
kubectl 2020.02.07

Here's my Dockerfile:

FROM gcr.io/google-appengine/python
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
  binutils \
  gdal-bin \
  python-gdal
RUN virtualenv /env -p python3.6
ENV VIRTUAL_ENV /env
ENV PATH /env/bin:$PATH
ADD requirements.txt /app/requirements.txt
RUN pip install -r /app/requirements.txt
ADD . /app
CMD gunicorn -b :$PORT mysite.wsgi

Many thanks for any hlep,

Dan Cogswell

Dan,

You might want to consider updating Cloud SDK to the latest version 283.0.0 and try again. If the issue persists, I'd suggest to create a Public Issue Tracker, as this may require further investigation.
