This application is written to be deployed via Google Cloud Platform and uses AppEngine and Datastore.
You can view a live version of this code @ go.noxoin.com.
During development and testing, you will need to have an emulated datastore by following instructions here.
# Start emulated datastore for dev environment
gcloud beta emulators datastore start
Also, remember to set your environment variable on each terminal that runs the application.
# Have application pointing to dev environment and not prod datastore
$(gcloud beta emulators datastore env-init)
