title: Google API PHP Client autoload.php is required but missing?
body: <p>Step 1: Download <a href="https://github.com/google/google-api-php-client" rel="nofollow">google-api-php-client</a></p>
  
  <p>Step 2: Change directory name to "api" and upload to Google App Engine</p>
  
  <p>Step 3: Follow <a href="https://developers.google.com/api-client-library/php/start/installation" rel="nofollow">instructions</a> and keep adding the following lines to because of specific errors saying files missing</p>
  
  <pre><code>set_include_path( get_include_path() . PATH_SEPARATOR . 'api/src' );
  require_once 'Google/Collection.php';
  require_once 'Google/Model.php';
  require_once 'Google/Exception.php';
  require_once 'Google/Task/Exception.php';
  require_once 'Google/Service.php';
  require_once 'Google/Service/Resource.php';
  require_once 'Google/Service/Gmail.php';
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Step 4: Receive the following error (used {...} for removed items),</p>
  
  <pre><code>Warning: require_once(/base/data/home/apps/{...}/api/src/Google/autoload.php): 
  failed to open stream: No such file or directory in 
  /base/data/home/apps/{...}/api/src/Google/Collection.php on line 4 Fatal
  error: require_once(): Failed opening required '/base/data/home/apps/{...}/api/src/Google/autoload.php'
  (include_path='.;/base/data/home/{...}/;/base/data/home/runtimes/php/sdk;api/src')
  in /base/data/home/apps/{...}/api/src/Google/Collection.php on line 4
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The file "Collection.php" is required by other files, but it requires "autoload.php" file. There is no "autoload.php" file. I have searched for hours and am completely lost. Why would their be a dependency of a file that doesn't exist and if it needs to be created somehow, why bury the instructions?</p>
  
  <p>All I want to do is use this to check for unread emails, does the API not work? Is there another way to check a users unread emails baked into GAE?</p>
