Any ideas on automating deployment with the Google AppEngine Launcher?

I am trying to automate th开发者_开发百科e deploy process with the Google AppEngine Launcher, and the one thing getting in my way is the password enquiry; I am trying to set it up so that I don't have to enter my password after the first time.

1. One approach I am looking at is to somehow ensure the cookie does not expire; any ideas on how this may be accomplished?

2. Are there any resources that detail the format of the .appcfg_cookies file, including the encoding?

3. Another approach I am looking into is the use of the --passin argument. Are there any resources on this?

Thanks in advance.

Google App Engine now supports OAuth tokens to handle automated deployment, which does not expose your Google account password.

The --passin argument is what you want - use appcfg.py with that and the --email argument, and provide the password from a file and you're sorted.

This seems fairly straightforward - what sort of 'resources' are you looking for?
