How to disable gae python to check for updates every time I start a server in eclipse?

Question

I just hate seeing this for 20sec every time I run my server: appcfg.py:393] Checking for updates to the SDK.

Answer 1

@Nick Jognson and @Joe answers both for me did not worked but here is how i fixed it for ENTERPRISES where user names get deleted and user profile gets deleted on every reboot.

#!/usr/bin/env python
from subprocess import Popen, PIPE 
cmd = Popen('python.exe script.py', stdout=PIPE, stdin=PIPE, stderr=PIPE) 
out, err = cmd.communicate("sendNOnENTER\nsendNOnENTER\n")
print out
print err

Here script.py is executed and if it was asked to type Y or n you can use communicate method or second method is little bit nonsense but also works:

import os
from subprocess import Popen
google_app_engine_update = 'c:/Python27/.appcfg_nag'
if os.path.exists(google_app_engine_update):
  target = open(google_app_engine_update, 'r+')
else:
  target = open(google_app_engine_update, 'w')

line1 = 'opt_in: false'
target.write(line1)
target.close()
Popen(['c:/Python27/python.exe', 'C:/google/devscript.py', arg1, arg2], shell=False)
