Lib Task Run Datastore Server

Purpose

This Controller Page is used to start the Datastore local storage emulator

Description

The GCLOUD version of Datastore runs the local server in a separate class. This page is used to start the controller.

Setup

Refer to the setup under recycle-server-v3 task. Also refer to Source of Truth section.

There are options in the profile of each GAEL project that contains parameters relevant to this server.

NOTE: If the PSEC workflow is being developed it may be more convenient to have a separate starter .cmd so that the command window is not a child of the PSEC GUI. Otherwise the DB server will have to be stopped each time the PSEC window is restarted.

See citv3-db.cmd as an example

Indexes

The local datastore emulator maintains and automatically indexes required by the testing environment. These must be manually created on the production datastore using the following command as a template.

gcloud datastore indexes create H:\v3\gael-core\ds-chsol\WEB-INF\index.yaml

where the filename is changed.

The command will take a few minutes to build the index the first time.
