I concur with Jared. XML and JSON are my preferred methods.
What really needs to be done is there to be added a toJson function,
to DataStore models. Then when you want to dump an entire DB you give
the option of XML and JSON, and on your side you simply execute a
query where you grab all objects from all models and export them one
by one.
I would like a format like this for JSON:
{"model_name": "MyModel", "properties": {"myproperty": {"type":
"UserProperty", "options": {"someoption": "value"}}}, "objects":
{"id": 0, "myproperty": "aa...@krillr.com"}}
