How to set up Eclipse-Pydev for Google app engine development

I am trying to use PyDev on Eclipse Juno to create a GoogleAppEngine project. I am very new to Python and AppEngine. So PyDev asks me for Google App Engine Directory which apparently is where the appcfg.py file is. I have already installed the GAE and it works well with IDLE (I am using Mac).

Has anyone set this up successfully? Basically, I don't know where the directory is. I am of course assuming that's the only problem.

I have already tried to find appcfg.py from the terminal using find . -name appcfg.py, mdfind -name appcfg.py, whereis appcfg.py. But so far no success.

Solution

  • Try this:

    Enter the following:

    /Applications/GoogleAppEngineLauncher.app/Contents/Resources/ GoogleAppEngine-default.bundle/Contents/Resources/google_appengine/
