How to pass dev_appserver parameters for django-nonrel

Question

I have been using django-appengine and am now trying a project with django-nonrel. Before I used a bash script to start the local server and pass parameters.

Django-nonrel docs say you shouldn't run dev_appserver directly. Is there a way to pass these parameters?

/usr/bin/python2.5 ./dev_appserver.py \
        -p 9009 \
        -a 192.168.1.8 \
        --blobstore_path=/foo/gaedata/myapp/blobs \
        --datastore_path=/foo/gaedata/myapp/data \
        --enable_sendmail \
        $@ .

Answer 1

• IP address and port may be passed as the the first argument (as Robert answered)
• --enable_sendmail works as-is
• The datastore parameters must be separated by a space instead of an equals

Working version:

/usr/bin/python2.5 ./manage.py runserver \
        192.168.1.8:9009 \
        --enable_sendmail \
        --blobstore_path /foo/django-nonrel/blobs \
        --datastore_path /foo/data \
        --history_path /foo/history
