Currently I am using Eclipse and I am trying to implement a Python Backend/API for an Android App on Google App Engine.
I see you can generate an App Engine Backend using Google Eclipse Plugins but from I see it can only be generated in Java. Is there a way to generate an App Engine Backend in Python?
Would it be better to create a Python App Engine Project and define all the API associated with the App in that project and just make calls through another project that houses the app itself?'
Just looking for some clarification as to how the best way to organize and implement this type of project.
The eclipse plugin is Java only. However you can use your favorite IDE to work with app engine and it works really fine. If you do like eclipse, add the app engine libraries to your project. And create a run configuration as follows:
${project_loc} or some other flags
More info here: https://developers.google.com/appengine/articles/eclipse
Please note that you can use the App Engine console to lauch/stop your project and code using your favorite IDE too, there is no need to configure eclipse to launch (it is just more comfortable to do so)

I try to create a Google App Engine project in Intellij 2016.3 based on this tutorial. The described "Google App Engine" plugin does not exist. I used the "Google Cloud Tools" instead. I enabled it, downloaded the actual Cloud SDK and added it to the App Engine under "Build, Execution, Deployment".
When I try to create an App Engine project as described in the tutorial, I should add under "Additional Libraries and Frameworks" the Google App Engine but this selection is not available. The project created without it is a standard Java project with no relation to the App Engine.
What do I have to do to create a Google App Engine project in Intellij?
Ok, the answer is already in the comment from Dan Comilescu above. I found it independently after exchanging almost 10 emails with Jetbrains. They first told me that Google App Engine is included by default into Intellij. Therefore everything should just work as described. Only after checking the logs they became aware that the problem is that it is only included in the Ultimate edition of Intellij. The Community edition does not have it and therefore can not use it! I urged them to put that on top of their tutorial page and meanwhile they have added it.
I'm building a java project on google app engine platform,
and I found a PHP library that will help me on my project needs.
is it possible to run both projects under the same app engine project?
Yes, you can use different languages in different modules.
See Using both Java and Python with the new "Module" feature on AppEngine?
My maps project is basically developed by using java script in .net,
All the files are in .cs format. I want to convert this entire project into android project
or if there is any source code present please provide me.
I am presently using android development tool plugin for android development.
The default sample maps is not working in my eclipse.
Suggest me any other options?
How to resolve this issue?
If you are comfortable with using c# already and really only need the maps. You should look into Xamarin
I'm a bit of a newbie to all this.. but I can't seem to find any specific instructions for my scenario
I have built a simple endpoint api, using a maven project via eclipse.
I have built an android app, and just want to add a little test in it to use the simple api.
(sidenote: i have also built an app engine web app which will later also [i hope] make use of the same endpoint api, so both the web app and the android app make use of the same library / code)
anyway, I'm stumbling on a couple steps.
I can't seem to use the eclipse 'google -> generate cloud endpoint client library' option, since it's a maven project.
So i found on the google site, instructions to use the endpoints.cmd commandline to generate the library.
I successfully did this apparently (it created a zip file rather then just a jar)
here is where i am confused what to do next.. or if i missed something.
I have tried adding the jar within the zip as a library in the build path for my android app.
When I do that, I see that the Builder member doesn't seem to have been added.
Should I expect it to have been added by the library generation?
I can't seem to do anything in my android app code to use the library.
What am I missing / doing wrong?
When I create a app from facebook developer and choose to use Heroku as host they don't give me the option to put a java app, only PHP, Js, Ruby and Pyton. But when i create a app from the Heroku dev site i can create a app using java. My question is: How can i put my java app to run inside facebook?
You don't have to create your app through Facebook using those templates, to make it eventually be a Facebook app. Just write your Java Facebook app separately (here's a good resource for that) and the once you get that working, follow the general guide for deploying Java apps on Heroku.
