Does anyone have a GitHub project for epub -> mp3 using this service yet (for automatic audiobook generation)? May make it myself if I have time but curious if anyone already has set it up. EDIT: this is almost exactly their sample application (https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/python-docs-samples/t...). Was able to get it working with epubs using pypandoc within the hour. Now just need to make it upload to Overcast... EDIT 2: Can now convert epubs directly to mp3s on Overcast. Yay!

(Google cloud support here) The pages you linked to are supposed to serve as client libraries reference only. If you want higher level instructions and examples, always start with the main Google Cloud docs first. On any page that offers instructions, the top of the code windows offers a selection of client library languages/CLI tools/REST API available to do whatever that task is. For cloud storage, start here: https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/how-to Choose a topic, and select "Python" at the top. It should provide instructions and examples using the Python libraries. Also, we have a repo of demo projects and examples for nearly every GCP product/service, and then some. Great examples to be found here (some might be out of date though): https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/python-docs-samples

> All our python examples are in framework X, that's sufficient for everyone using framework Y, right? I work on GCP on the Python samples. We generally pick Flask, since our thinking is that for many API calls, it is pretty much identical code in other frameworks, and Flask has minimal boilerplate. We have quick starts for Django for all our platforms. I think Flask + Django covers a huge chunk of Python frameworks people are using. If you think we are missing important Python samples, you can file an issue here: https://github.com/googlecloudplatform/python-docs-samples There are a lot of potential samples to write, so any guidance on which ones people want is always helpful to us.

I tried to reproduce to file some bugs, but the docs Ron linked to and the datastore_test.py[1] they in turn link to don't do "import webtest", so I guess the docs have been updated recently. A quick search suggests webtest is part of Pylons[2]. But Pylons isn't listed as a built-in third-party library[3]. So I'm not sure if there's anything to fix. 1. https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/python-docs-samples/b... 2. http://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/webtest/en/latest/ 3. https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/built-i...
