Google App Engine cannot find lib from appengine_config

I am trying to deploy a flask application on google cloud. In spite of following their instructions, whenever I start dev server, it cannot find the library given vendor.add('lib'). How to fix this?

sudo /google-cloud-sdk/bin/dev_appserver.py app.yaml > file

You need to create a lib dir inside your application and install your dependencies in that dir (not on your system's python installation). From Installing a third-party library:

  1. Create a directory to store your third-party libraries, such as lib/.

    mkdir lib

  2. Use pip (version 6 or later) with the -t <directory> flag to copy the libraries into the folder you created in the previous step. For example:

    pip install -t lib/ <library_name>
