Is it posible to use textile 2.2.0 in Google App Engine?

Question

I used this guide to add textile to my Python 2.7 GAE project and found that textile 2.2.0 depends on regex 2014.10.09.

I tried to install regex 2014.10.09 using the same manual and using pip (and copy it to my project's Lib directory), and none helped. I see that the regex package has _regex.c and _regex.h files in it, so I guess I cannot use regex 2014.10.09 in GAE as it's not pure Python...

Is there any way to use textile 2.2.0 in Google App Engine?

Answer 1

The regex dependency is made optional in this commit.

With this pull request is works in GAE and the tests are passing, thanks to Radek Czajka.
