Google App Engine supports a Python 3.7 runtime on a beta basis, but I cannot figure out how to connect to the appengine memcache from that runtime. The documentation is strangely silent on the issue.
Here are the docs for python2.7: https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/python/memcache/ However, note that python3.7 is grayed out. Does anyone know how to connect to this service in python3.7?
Memcache is documented as being unavailable for the Python3.7 runtime:
The Memcache service is not available in Python 3. If you need access to a hosted caching service, you can use a third party memcache service like Redis Labs Cloud.
Update:
The documentation has been updated, and now recommends using Google's Cloud MemoryStore [for Redis] to create an application cache.
To build an application cache, create a Cloud Memorystore instance and connect it to your app using Serverless VPC Access.
Note that unlike Memcache, Cloud Memorystore is not free.
