What is the command to create a new app engine project with skeleton files included? Since I can't use the launcher GUI on ubuntu, I've been successfully using dev_appserver.py through terminal.... but I've been copy and pasting files from hello world each time I make a new project folder. Is there a command line command to create a new project with the favicon and app.yaml etc.?
According to this documentation, the instructions are to make a new directory then copy the hello world files like I'm doing. https://cloud.google.com/shell/docs/examples
But since the google app engine launcher GUI creates a new project with skeleton files included by a single button click, I wondered if there is a powershell command for this also.
There is no such command. Google Cloud Tools for PowerShell has not yet implemented support for App Engine. The list of supported features can be found here.
There is a gcloud command in beta that looks to do what you are asking for: gcloud beta app gen-config.
