Overview

Dataset

Dataset is the data saved in a project's Datastore. Dataset is analogous to a database in relational database world.

Google::Cloud::Datastore::Dataset is the main object for interacting with Google Datastore. Entity objects are created, read, updated, and deleted by Google::Cloud::Datastore::Dataset.

See Google::Cloud#datastore

Examples:

require "google/cloud"

gcloud = Google::Cloud.new
datastore = gcloud.datastore

query = datastore.query("Task").
  where("done", "=", false)

tasks = datastore.run query

#allocate_ids(incomplete_key, count = 1) ⇒ Array<Google::Cloud::Datastore::Key>

task_key = datastore.key "Task"
task_keys = datastore.allocate_ids task_key, 5

Parameters:

  • incomplete_key (Key) —

    A Key without id or name set.

  • count (String) (defaults to: 1) —

    The number of new key IDs to create.

  allocate_res.keys.map { |key| Key.from_grpc key }
end

#commit {|commit| ... } ⇒ Array<Google::Cloud::Datastore::Entity>

end

#entity(*key_or_path, project: nil, namespace: nil) {|entity| ... } ⇒ Google::Cloud::Datastore::Entity

Create a new empty Entity instance. This is a convenience method to make the creation of Entity objects easier.

Examples:

task = datastore.entity

The previous example is equivalent to:

task = Google::Cloud::Datastore::Entity.new

The key can also be passed in as an object:

task_key = datastore.key "Task", "sampleTask"
task = datastore.entity task_key

Or the key values can be passed in as parameters:

task = datastore.entity "Task", "sampleTask"

The previous example is equivalent to:

task_key = Google::Cloud::Datastore::Key.new "Task", "sampleTask"
task = Google::Cloud::Datastore::Entity.new
task.key = task_key

The newly created entity can also be configured using block:

task = datastore.entity "Task", "sampleTask" do |t|
  t["type"] = "Personal"
  t["done"] = false
  t["priority"] = 4
  t["description"] = "Learn Cloud Datastore"
end

The previous example is equivalent to:

task_key = Google::Cloud::Datastore::Key.new "Task", "sampleTask"
task = Google::Cloud::Datastore::Entity.new
task.key = task_key
task["type"] = "Personal"
task["done"] = false
task["priority"] = 4
task["description"] = "Learn Cloud Datastore"

Parameters:

  • key_or_path (Key, Array<Array(String,(String|Integer|nil))>) —

    An optional list of pairs for the key's path. Each pair may include the key's kind (String) and an id (Integer) or name (String). This is optional.

  • project (String) —

    The project of the Key. This is optional.

  • namespace (String) —

    namespace kind of the Key. This is optional.

Yields:

  • (entity) —

    a block yielding a new entity

Yield Parameters:

  • entity (Entity) —

    the newly created entity object

task_key2 = datastore.key "Task", "sampleTask2"
tasks = datastore.find_all task_key1, task_key2

Parameters:

  • keys (Key) —

    One or more Key objects to find records for.

  • consistency (Symbol) —

    The non-transactional read consistency to use. Cannot be set to :strong for global queries. Accepted values are :eventual and :strong.

#gql(query, bindings = {}) ⇒ Google::Cloud::Datastore::GqlQuery

Create a new GqlQuery instance. This is a convenience method to make the creation of GqlQuery objects easier.

Examples:

gql_query = datastore.gql "SELECT * FROM Task WHERE done = @done",
                          done: false
tasks = datastore.run gql_query

The previous example is equivalent to:

gql_query = Google::Cloud::Datastore::GqlQuery.new
gql_query.query_string = "SELECT * FROM Task WHERE done = @done"
gql_query.named_bindings = {done: false}
tasks = datastore.run gql_query

Parameters:

  • query (String) —

    The GQL query string.
