It +contains the +basic APIs (e.g. `appengine.NewContext`) that apply across APIs. Specific API +packages are in subdirectories (e.g. `datastore`). + +There is an `internal` subdirectory that contains service protocol buffers, +plus packages required for connectivity to make API calls. App Engine apps +should not directly import any package under `internal`. + +## Updating from legacy (`import "appengine"`) packages + +If you're currently using the bare `appengine` packages +(that is, not these ones, imported via `google.golang.org/appengine`), +then you can use the `aefix` tool to help automate an upgrade to these packages. + +Run `go get google.golang.org/appengine/cmd/aefix` to install it. + +### 1. Update import paths + +The import paths for App Engine packages are now fully qualified, based at `google.golang.org/appengine`. +You will need to update your code to use import paths starting with that; for instance, +code importing `appengine/datastore` will now need to import `google.golang.org/appengine/datastore`. + +### 2. Update code using deprecated, removed or modified APIs + +Most App Engine services are available with exactly the same API. +A few APIs were cleaned up, and there are some differences: + +* `appengine.Context` has been replaced with the `Context` type from `golang.org/x/net/context`. +* Logging methods that were on `appengine.Context` are now functions in `google.golang.org/appengine/log`. +* `appengine.Timeout` has been removed. Use `context.WithTimeout` instead. +* `appengine.Datacenter` now takes a `context.Context` argument. +* `datastore.PropertyLoadSaver` has been simplified to use slices in place of channels. +* `delay.Call` now returns an error. +* `search.FieldLoadSaver` now handles document metadata. +* `urlfetch.Transport` no longer has a Deadline field; set a deadline on the + `context.Context` instead. +* `aetest` no longer declares its own Context type, and uses the standard one instead. +* `taskqueue.QueueStats` no longer takes a maxTasks argument. That argument has been + deprecated and unused for a long time. +* `appengine.BackendHostname` and `appengine.BackendInstance` were for the deprecated backends feature. + Use `appengine.ModuleHostname`and `appengine.ModuleName` instead. +* Most of `appengine/file` and parts of `appengine/blobstore` are deprecated. + Use [Google Cloud Storage](https://godoc.org/cloud.google.com/go/storage) if the + feature you require is not present in the new + [blobstore package](https://google.golang.org/appengine/blobstore). +* `appengine/socket` is not required on App Engine flexible environment / Managed VMs. + Use the standard `net` package instead. |
