Modules and GAE Launcher (PHP)

[Paul Canning]

I am unable to figure out how you use modules with the GAE launcher (PHP version).

Is it even possible?

I can use local modules by using the dev_appserver.py command line tool, but I'd like to control it with the launcher.

I have added my main app, which is the default module, and then tried to add another application, but it says there is no app.yaml file (because it is a module, so its named differently). I can't see any options for modules...

Likewise, if you use the GoogleAppEngineLauncher application, open the Application Settings window and add the list of modules to the Launch Settings Extra Flags field.

What exactly do I need to type into the extra settings box?

Would be nice to have this documented somewhere....

I tried the following in the Launch Settings:

module_dir/module_config.yaml

module_dir

/module_dir

/module_dir/module_config.yaml

Nothing works.

Any help with this?

Still can't get it to work

I assume you're on Mac? Is so, you should be able to set the "Extra Flags" to /absolute/path/to/your/module.yaml and expect it to work.

Why assume I'm on Mac?

I'm on Windows 7.

I got it to work by typing in the full file path, but it likes to load the secondary module first, which I feel is wrong.

Settings defined as extra flags should be loaded after the default module.

If I try and put the default module in the flags, before the second module, it fails.

If you really want precise control over the loading order, please run dev_appserver directly from command line.

Not really the solution I was after, but ho-hum.
