Class DatastoreEmulator (2.5.1)

public class DatastoreEmulator extends Datastore

An extension to Datastore that provides lifecycle management for a datastore emulator.

In order to use the emulator for a JUnit 4 test you might do something like this:

public class MyTest {

static DatastoreEmulator datastore;

@BeforeClass public static void startEmulator() throws DatastoreEmulatorException { DatastoreOptions options = new DatastoreOptions.Builder() .localHost("localhost:8080") .projectId("my-project-id") .build(); datastore = DatastoreEmulatorFactory.get().create(options); datastore.start("/usr/local/cloud-datastore-emulator", "my-project-id"); }

@Before public void setUp() throws DatastoreEmulatorException { datastore.clear(); }

@AfterClass public static void stopEmulator() throws DatastoreEmulatorException { datastore.stop(); }

@Test public void testFoo1() { }

@Test public void testFoo2() { }

}

public synchronized void start(String emulatorDir, String projectId, String[] commandLineOptions)

Deprecated. prefer setting options in the emulator options and calling {#start()}.

Starts the emulator. It is the caller's responsibility to call #stop. Note that receiving an exception does not indicate that the server did not start. We recommend calling #stop to ensure the server is not running regardless of the result of this method.
