Question

I want to create a directory structure like the following. How can I get the account.py and game.py to handle the requests that go to \account\ and \game\ respectfully. All the app-engine examples I have seen have all the logic in on main.py that handle all urls.

app\account\
           \account.py
   \game\
        \ game.py
   \static\css
          \js
          \images
   \app.yaml
   \main.py

I tried the following in app.yaml but it didn’t work

application: mefirst
version: 1
runtime: python
api_version: 1

handlers:

- url: /static
  static_dir: static

- url: /account
  script: account.py

- url: .*
  script: main.py

Take a look at MVCEngine, a framework for AppEngine that provides a Ruby on Rails-like structure for building apps. It may or may not be overkill for what you are looking to do, but if you take a look in the main project file, MVCEngine.py, you should be able to see how it goes about providing for a project directory structure somewhat like you want. It’s not too difficult.
