App.yaml designed for serving a static site on Google App Engine (Python). Copy your static html and files into a folder called "static" next to app.yaml. Contains a bunch of mimetype declarations from html5boilerplate's .htaccess. May not be necessary for most situations.

my_site
  app.yaml
  static
    index.html
    ...

The static folder is invisible when serving (i.e. my_site/static/index.html is accessed as http://your-app-name-here.appspot.com/index.html.

Remember: No spaces in file or path names. Case sensitive.

Hi, how would I reference a public file from the public/shared-json/blacklist.json in app.yaml?
The repo structure is:

• public:
  - shared-json:
  - black-list.json
• server :
  - app.yaml
  Below is how my app.yaml looks for handler section
  

Is there a way to change the path in the static_dir option?

Thanks for this. Was just what I needed 👌
