PHP Library for Cloud Datastore 2.0 Production Release

[Tom Walder]

https://github.com/tomwalder/php-gds

Enjoy!

New features in 2.0 include 

• Faster - use of Google Protocol Buffer allows faster, low-level access to Datastore
• Easier to use - sensible defaults and auto-detection for AppEngine environments
• Less dependencies - no need for the Google PHP API Client, unless running remote or from non-AppEngine environments
• Local development - Using the Protocol Buffers allows us to access the development server Datastore
• Local GQL support - By default, the local development server does not support GQL. I've included a basic GQL parser that makes this work.
• Data Migrations - leverage multiple Gateways to ship data between local and live Datastore
• Contention Exceptions - standardised Exception for handling Datastore transaction contention`
• Unit tests
• Optional drop-in JSON API Gateway for remote or non-AppEngine environments (this was the only Gateway in 1.x)

Hi Tom,

This sounds excellent - just so I am nor misreading, this no longer requires the Google API, so could this be used on AppScale for example?

Ant

[Tom Walder]

Yes, I believe you could run this on AppScale.

Whilst I have not done so myself, my understanding is that AppScale exposes the same Protocol Buffer APIs that AppEngine does.

Hi Tom,

Thanks for coming back to me - thats really awesome, I'll give it a test and let you know. Thanks so much for sharing this I've just started rewriting my entire code base into Python after writing everything in PHP (using your original library).

This means I can potentially just carry on as is!

Great - I'd be really interested to find out how you get on with running it on AppScale.

Hi Tom,

I've tried porting over a basic insert - but it keeps returning this error: 

Fatal error: Class 'GDS\Gateway\ProtoBuf' not found in /Users/anthonyshapley/Desktop/test/api/datastore/GDS/Store.php on line 81

Thanks

Anthony

[Anthony Shapley]

Doh, ignore that .. need to include the gateway files now!
