Package com.google.cloud.datastore (2.18.5)

A client for Cloud Datastore – A highly-scalable NoSQL database for web and mobile applications.

Here's a simple usage example for using google-cloud from App/Compute Engine. This example shows how to create a Datastore entity. For the complete source code see CreateEntity.java.


 Datastore datastore = DatastoreOptions.getDefaultInstance().getService();
 KeyFactory keyFactory = datastore.newKeyFactory().setKind("keyKind");
 Key key = keyFactory.newKey("keyName");
 Entity entity = Entity.newBuilder(key)
     .set("name", "John Doe")
     .set("age", 30)
     .set("access_time", Timestamp.now())
     .build();
 datastore.put(entity);
 

This second example shows how to get and update a Datastore entity if it exists. For the complete source code see UpdateEntity.java.


 Datastore datastore = DatastoreOptions.getDefaultInstance().getService();
 KeyFactory keyFactory = datastore.newKeyFactory().setKind("keyKind");
 Key key = keyFactory.newKey("keyName");
 Entity entity = datastore.get(key);
 if (entity != null) {
   System.out.println("Updating access_time for " + entity.getString("name"));
   entity = Entity.newBuilder(entity)
       .set("access_time", Timestamp.now())
       .build();
   datastore.update(entity);
 }
 

When using google-cloud from outside of App/Compute Engine, you have to specify a project ID and provide credentials. See Also: Google Cloud Datastore

Classes

AggregationQuery

An implementation of a Google Cloud Datastore Query that returns AggregationResults, It can be constructed by providing a nested query (StructuredQuery or GqlQuery) to run the aggregations on and a set of Aggregation.

StructuredQuery example:


 EntityQuery selectAllQuery = Query.newEntityQueryBuilder()
    .setKind("Task")
    .build();
 AggregationQuery aggregationQuery = Query.newAggregationQueryBuilder()
    .addAggregation(count().as("total_count"))
    .over(selectAllQuery)
    .build();
 AggregationResults aggregationResults = datastore.runAggregation(aggregationQuery);
 for (AggregationResult aggregationResult : aggregationResults) {
     System.out.println(aggregationResult.get("total_count"));
 }
 

GqlQuery example:


 GqlQuery selectAllGqlQuery = Query.newGqlQueryBuilder(
         "AGGREGATE COUNT(*) AS total_count, COUNT_UP_TO(100) AS count_upto_100 OVER(SELECT * FROM Task)"
     )
     .setAllowLiteral(true)
     .build();
 AggregationQuery aggregationQuery = Query.newAggregationQueryBuilder()
     .over(selectAllGqlQuery)
     .build();
 AggregationResults aggregationResults = datastore.runAggregation(aggregationQuery);
 for (AggregationResult aggregationResult : aggregationResults) {
   System.out.println(aggregationResult.get("total_count"));
   System.out.println(aggregationResult.get("count_upto_100"));
 }

AggregationQuery.Builder

AggregationResult

Represents a result of an AggregationQuery query submission.

AggregationResults

This can be used to iterate over an underlying List<AggregationResult> directly.

BaseDatastoreBatchWriter

BaseEntity<K>

A base class for entities (key and properties). An entity is a Google Cloud Datastore persistent data object. An entity holds one or more properties, represented by a name (as String) and a value (as com.google.cloud.datastore.Value), and may be associated with a key. For a list of possible values see ValueType. See Also: Google Cloud Datastore Entities, Properties, and Keys

BaseEntity.Builder<K,B>

BaseKey

Base class for keys.

BaseKey.Builder<B>

GqlQuery<V>

A Google Cloud Datastore GQL query.

A usage example:

When the type of the results is known the preferred usage would be:


 Query<Entity> query =
     Query.newGqlQueryBuilder(Query.ResultType.ENTITY, "select * from kind").build();
 QueryResults<Entity> results = datastore.run(query);
 while (results.hasNext()) {
   Entity entity = results.next();
   ...
 }
 

When the type of the results is unknown you can use this approach:


 Query query = Query.newGqlQueryBuilder("select __key__ from kind").build();
 QueryResults results = datastore.run(query);
 if (Key.class.isAssignableFrom(results.getResultClass())) {
   QueryResults<Key> keys = (QueryResults<Key>) results;
   while (keys.hasNext()) {
     Key key = keys.next();
     ...
   }
 }

Interfaces

Batch

An interface to represent a batch of write operations. Any write operation that is applied on a batch will only be sent to the Datastore upon #submit. A usage example:


 Entity entity1 = datastore.get(key1);
 Batch batch = datastore.newBatch();
 Entity entity2 = Entity.newBuilder(key2).set("name", "John").build();
 entity1 = Entity.newBuilder(entity1).clear().setNull("bla").build();
 Entity entity3 = Entity.newBuilder(key3).set("title", "title").build();
 batch.update(entity1);
 batch.add(entity2, entity3);
 batch.submit();
 

WARNING: This class maintains an internal state in terms of java.util.LinkedHashMap and java.util.LinkedHashSet which gets updated on every method call performing CRUD operations to record the mutations. Since java.util.LinkedHashMap is not thread safe as per its documentation, This class too should not be treated as a thread safe class.

Batch.Response

Datastore

An interface for Google Cloud Datastore.

Datastore.TransactionCallable<T>

A callback for running with a transactional com.google.cloud.datastore.DatastoreReaderWriter. The associated transaction will be committed after a successful return from the run method. Any propagated exception will cause the transaction to be rolled-back.

DatastoreBatchWriter

An interface to represent a batch of write operations. All write operation for a batch writer will be applied to the Datastore in one RPC call.

WARNING: This class maintains an internal state in terms of java.util.LinkedHashMap and java.util.LinkedHashSet which gets updated on every method call performing CRUD operations to record the mutations. Since java.util.LinkedHashMap is not thread safe as per its documentation, This class too should not be treated as a thread safe class.

DatastoreFactory

An interface for Datastore factories.

DatastoreReader

An interface to represent Google Cloud Datastore read operations.

DatastoreReaderWriter

An interface that combines both Google Cloud Datastore read and write operations.

DatastoreWriter

An interface to represent Google Cloud Datastore write operations.

QueryResults<V>

The result of a Google Cloud Datastore query submission. When the result is not typed it is possible to cast it to its appropriate type according to the #getResultClass value. Results are loaded lazily in batches, where batch size is set by Cloud Datastore. As a result, it is possible to get a DatastoreException upon hasNext or next calls.

RecordQuery<V>

An internal marker interface to represent Query that returns the entity records.

StructuredQuery.Builder<V>

Interface for StructuredQuery builders.

Transaction

A Google cloud datastore transaction. Similar to Batch any write operation that is applied on a transaction will only be sent to the Datastore upon #commit. A call to #rollback will invalidate the transaction and discard the changes. Any read operation that is done by a transaction will be part of it and therefore a commit is guaranteed to fail if an entity was modified outside the transaction after it was read. Write operation on this transaction will not be reflected by read operation (as the changes are only sent to the Datastore upon commit. A usage example:


 Transaction transaction = datastore.newTransaction();
 try {
   Entity entity = transaction.get(key);
   if (!entity.contains("last_name") || entity.isNull("last_name")) {
     String[] name = entity.getString("name").split(" ");
     entity = Entity.newBuilder(entity)
         .remove("name")
         .set("first_name", name[0])
         .set("last_name", name[1])
         .build();
     transaction.update(entity);
     transaction.commit();
   }
 } finally {
   if (transaction.isActive()) {
     transaction.rollback();
   }
 }
