app engine: ImportError: No module named Crypto.Hash

问题

I have a script that uses Crypto.Hash but import fails with error:

ImportError: No module named Crypto.Hash

in my sys.path if I print the sys.path list, there is this entry (among others):

/Applications/GoogleAppEngineLauncher.app/Contents/Resources/GoogleAppEngine-default.bundle/Contents/Resources/google_appengine/lib/pycrypto-2.6

If I open the path above, there is no pycrypto-2.6 directory.

How can I get to load pycrypto 2.6?

If I import Crypto.Hash running python from command line it works

I have to point out that pycrypto is supported by App Engine, it is included in this list.

Furthermore I have included the module in my app.yaml file:

libraries:
- name: webapp2
  version: "2.5.2"
- name: pycrypto
  version: latest
- name: lxml
  version: "2.3"
- name: ssl
  version: latest

If I send the code in production on appengine it works, the problem is in my system I should probably download a compiled version of pycrypto and put it somewhere appengine can use it

回答1:

It seems a problem that happens on MAC OSX, all I have managed to do is following:

firstly you need to know where your install of pycripto is, running

sudo pip install pycrypto

either you install the library or you get the path where it is installed

Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): pycrypto in ...

then, considering that this is a problem that does not happen in production on appengine, I did this:

try:
    from Crypto.Hash import SHA
except ImportError:
    import sys
    sys.path.append('/[mypath]/anaconda/lib/python2.7/site-packages')
    from Crypto.Hash import SHA # requires PyCrypto

回答2:

Run the SDK from the command line with dev_appserver.py, rather than with the GUI (assuming you've already checked that it's installed via pip).

I've seen similar problems with App Engine not importing libraries locally, even though they're installed, and even though they work fine in production. MySQLDB comes to mind, although I can't find the reference. Anyway, this worked for me.
