title: Google cloud platform, running a script from command line console
body: <p>I have created an app in <code>express</code> on app engine.</p>
  
  <p>I would like to run a script from the command line to create the tables.<br>
  I know I can execute an HTTP method that can do that. but this is in-secured and bad practice.
  Is there any official way to execute a CLI command in express app engine?</p>
  
  <p><strong>UPDATE</strong></p>
  
  <p>In every app you have installation script where you run a script for creating the database tables, and doing some initial things.</p>
  
  <p>Or when you upload a new version you have upgrade script, this is basically what I am missing</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
