How to enable python 2.7 library like GDAL in Google App Engine standard? Currently there are linux python-modules in lib-folder in app engine, but when trying to run the code through endpoints, app engine gives internal server error: ImportError: No module named _gdal. I'm using pygdal version 2.2.3.3. Should the libgdal (demanded for pygdal)be installed also on app engine, and if so, how to do it? I installed GDAL locally into lib folder (using ubuntu bash on windows10) following these instructions using this syntax: sudo pip install --target lib --requirement requirements.txt --ignore-installed as it says here. Please help!
Modifying this links' answer I managed to get GDAL working in App Engine Flexible. My dockerfile:
FROM gcr.io/google-appengine/python
RUN apt-get update && apt-get -y install libproj-dev libgdal-dev
RUN export CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include/gdal
RUN export C_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include/gdal
RUN gdal-config --version
# Create a virtualenv for dependencies. This isolates these packages from
# system-level packages.
RUN virtualenv /env -p python2.7
# Setting these environment variables are the same as running
# source /env/bin/activate.
ENV VIRTUAL_ENV /env
ENV PATH /env/bin:$PATH
# Copy the application's requirements.txt and run pip to install all
# dependencies into the virtualenv.
ADD requirements.txt requirements.txt
RUN pip install -r requirements.txt
# Add the application source code.
ADD . /app
CMD gunicorn -t 120 -b :$PORT main:app

env: flex
entrypoint: gunicorn -t 120 -b :$PORT main:app
