Download source code of deployed GAE application

Question

Can I download source code of already deployed app if I\'ve lost it\'s source code on my hard drive? I\'ve looked through application dashboard but couldn\'t find any option

Answer 1

No, you can't, and there are no plans to offer such functionality. Sorry - consider investing in a VCS and backups next time.

Answer 2

SDK 1.4.0 has this sort of feature (Python only):

• The developer who uploaded an app version can download that version's code using the appcfg.py download_app command. This feature can be disabled on a per application basis in the admin console, under the 'Permissions' tab. Once disabled, code download for the application CANNOT be re-enabled.
