Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. These instructions will also help you deploy your code to app engine. See prerequisites & notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.

Prerequisites

• Install Python - You must have Python 2.7 installed on your local system. This project has not been tested on any version after Python 2.7.
• Install Google Cloud SDK
  • Download the Google Cloud SDK
  • Navigate to the extracted folder and add Cloud SDK tools to your path: ./google-cloud-sdk/install.sh
  • Run gcloud init to initialize the Cloud SDK: ./google-cloud-sdk/bin/gcloud init
