Cloud Datastore Client - Class DatastoreClient (1.29.2)

Reference documentation and code samples for the Cloud Datastore Client class DatastoreClient.

Google Cloud Datastore is a highly-scalable NoSQL database for your applications. Find more information at the Google Cloud Datastore docs .

Cloud Datastore supports multi-tenant applications through use of data partitions. A partition ID can be supplied when creating an instance of Cloud Datastore, and will be used in all operations executed in that instance.

To enable the Google Cloud Datastore Emulator , set the DATASTORE_EMULATOR_HOST environment variable.

Example:

 use Google\Cloud\Datastore\DatastoreClient;

$datastore = new DatastoreClient(); 
 // Multi-tenant applications can supply a namespace ID.
use Google\Cloud\Datastore\DatastoreClient;

$datastore = new DatastoreClient([
    'namespaceId' => 'my-application-namespace'
]); 
 // Using the Datastore Emulator
use Google\Cloud\Datastore\DatastoreClient;

// Be sure to use the port specified when starting the emulator.
// `8900` is used as an example only.
putenv('DATASTORE_EMULATOR_HOST=localhost:8900');

$datastore = new DatastoreClient(); 
 // Multi-database applications can supply a database ID.
use Google\Cloud\Datastore\DatastoreClient;

$datastore = new DatastoreClient([
    'namespaceId' => 'my-application-namespace',
    'databaseId' => 'my-database'
]);
