I have just started using GAE and can't figure out how to store images.
I created Django project and deployed on GAE using the methodology in this
tutorial which use cloud SQL (my project uses MySQL)
Now I want to add a Django model for images. I can't figure out how to go about it. I used AWS extensively earlier and stored links in MySQL database while filing on buckets.
Do I need to use google cloud storage? What is the GAE way to do it?

I am deploying Nuxt (frontend, universal configuration), Django (backend API, DRF), and Postgres on Google App Engine and Cloud SQL.
If this is relevant: (I need to be able to store images, dynamically create and store new images and dynamically create and store pdfs.)
In Google App Engine, what is the ideal setup for Django and Nuxt in terms of speed and performance?
Should they be on separate apps?
Any information you can provide/suggest regarding this setup would be helpful as this is my first time deploying this configuration on GAE.
Depending on whether your App Engine environment is standard or flexible, you can use the following links to setup Django on the App Engine:
[1] Standard: https://cloud.google.com/python/django/appengine
[2] Flexible: https://cloud.google.com/python/django/flexible-environment
I am very new to GCP and G-Suite. I wanted to understand one basic thing:
If I create an application (to be used within a domain) using App Maker, do I also need access to GCP?
I have done lots of googling [https://support.google.com/a/answer/9142070?hl=en] but couldn't find answer to this.While watching to one video on AppMaker I realised that- I can create application which could interact with G-Suite apps but we can not preview/publish this application without having account/access to GCP as "previewing" an app actually deploys the app on App Engine which is part of GCP. Also "publish" would definitely be doing the same.
Can any one help me in understanding this? I want to start my page development in App Maker and want to spend money on GCP later, this is doable only when preview is not dependent on GCP?
Any quick reference would be appreciated.
Regards.
App Maker is dependant on GCP products: Google Cloud SQL and Google App Engine; Although, the latter one is not being charged. This information is located in the official documentation.
App Maker apps usually store data in Cloud SQL, a Google Cloud Platform (GCP) service that delivers fully managed SQL databases in the cloud.
So is there any other way to use mysql database with django app on app engine? I found nice solution but it is not free - Google SQL Cloud seem to work great. But how about, moving django app to appengine and connecting to other hosting with mysql db? Or do you have any other solutions?
So to sum up - is there any way to work GAE with outside database?
Actually I have found the answer:
The Python Development Server in the Google App Engine SDK can use a locally-installed MySQL server instance to closely mirror the Google Cloud SQL environment during development.

I'm working on a Django 1.4-based social networking website as a personal project. I'm considering hosting it at Google App Engine; however, I've read that its non-relational database engine doesn't support joins.
How does that affect me, i.e. are there any I should take for make my site work on GAE, or does Django work fully out of the box?
My site relies on numerous third-party Django apps, including django-generic-m2m. Would I even need it on Google's DBMS?
You can try to apply for access to Google Cloud SQL, which apparently supports django running on GAE.
I am using djangoappengine to deploy a Django app on Google App Engine. I have a lot of data already stored locally, and when I deploy the project with GAE it disappears. How do I get this data to carry over from the dbindexer to the BigTable?
Thanks.
Have a look at the GAE documentation re: uploading and downloading data:
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/uploadingdata.html
It contains the information you need to upload your locally stored data to GAE.
