Datastore Tools

I am approaching to a GAE / GWT environment, coming from the RDBMS world.

Take, for instance, MySQL. If you want to do ANYTHING with your data, you can take a MySQL manager software, like PHP MyA开发者_JAVA百科dmin, Mysql Workbench and so on...

The datastore viewer on the appengine backoffice looks too simple to manage a complex model, I suppose, please correct me if I'm wrong.

Are there any tools ready to use?

The datastore viewer (in production, at http://appengine.google.com/, on the dev server at http://localhost:8080/_ah/admin/) is the only commonly used tool for this. Is there something in particular you want to do that it can't accomplish?

Bear in mind that the App Engine datastore is a nonrelational database. 'Tables' don't exist, there's no fixed schema, and queries like joins and group by aren't supported. This means a lot of the features you might be used to in tools like PHPMyAdmin don't apply here.

You will have to setup datastore object models from your script; after doing that, you will be able to use the datastore viewer to add/edit/delete items.

The datastore viewer on the appengine is simple to manage, but only for datastore. Datastore is a no-sql database. It's different from MySQL.

If u want to use MySqL-liked database, you should think about cloudSqL.

So.....'Tables' don't exist. Some features you might be used to in tools like PHPMyAdmin don't apply here.

Datastore have other concept, like Kind,Entity,Property...etc
