Setting up Goggle Apps as your own CDN
- Install Python
- Download Google Apps SDK
- Signup for Google App Engine and create an application
- Download CDN Example, nicely put together by Andreas Krohn of digitalistic.com
- Extract archive and edit app.yaml, changing application:digitalisticcdn to application:
- Put all the images you want to upload in the images directory, etc.
- Download Digitalistic’s batchfile uploader here. Edit it so it points to your Python install directory, your Google App Engine SDK and your digitalisticcdn / customapp directory.
- Double-click on this newly edited batch file to run it, the first time it’ll ask for your username & password afterwhich your files will then be uploaded (hopefully) to your newly created appengine cdn.
So after all that, you should be able to access your images via,
[application identifier].appspot.com/images/[myimage.gif]
Thanks go to Andreas Krohn of digitalistic.com for putting together the zip archive example, batch file and original tutorial.
