I installed the Google App Engine SDK for Python on OS X using the GoogleAppEngineLauncher-1.4.1.dmg package.

I created a Python 2.5 based virtualenv and then installed werkzeug and tipfy as follows:

mkvirtualenv -p python2.5 tipfy-sandbox
pip install werkzeug
pip install tipfy

However, when I run the Python interpreter and import tipfy and then introspect tipfy with dir(tipfy), all I receive is:

['__doc__', '__name__', '__path__', 'ext']

Surely that's not everything from a fully installed tipfy.

  1. Is it possible to install tipfy using pip?
  2. What else do I need to install to get tipfy working in a virtualenv?
  3. When installing tipfy using pip, can I still use the GoogleAppEngineLauncher? Do I have to use the GoogleAppEngineLauncher?

Configuration

  • I'm using the OS X installed Python 2.5.4
  • virtualenv 1.5.1
  • pip 0.8.1

The recomendend way to use tipfy is via buildout, with the recipe provided in

http://www.tipfy.org/wiki/guide/installation/

you can try to use virtualenv and run the buildout inside this one (i use this one and works, but without sense, buildout 1.5.x give the same isolation level than buildout now)
