python-pptx on Google App Engine

问题

According to Google App Engine Third Party Libraries Support, the latest version of lxml supported is 2.3 https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/libraries27

And python-pptx requires lxml >= 3.1.0 https://github.com/scanny/python-pptx/blob/master/requirements.txt

So what's the best way (if possible) to run python-pptx on GAE?

Note: I'm using buildout to deploy my applications, and that where those restrictions fail.

Thanks!

App Engine isn't compatible with that library so your best bet if you still want to stick with App Engine services is to use Managed VMs: https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/managed-vms/

This will let you access all the App Engine services but give you more flexibility with installing libraries.

I had the same problem. I wanted to use Python-pptx with GAE standard environment but wasn't able because GAE standard doesn't support Pillow. I migrated to GAE flexible environment and it works perfectly. Took a few hours to adjust my code for the flexible environment but its no big deal.
