I'm running a local stand-alone datastore emulator using the gcloud
tool:
$ gcloud beta emulators datastore start
It works fine, but I'm missing the integrated /_ah/admin
page the old appengine dev server offers. Is there something comparable for this emulator? A stand-alone project that just acts like a phpmyadmin, or a trick to reuse the appengine dev server's GUI; I'm fine with either.
The Datastore emulator provides local emulation of the production Datastore environment. You can use the emulator to develop and test your application locally. In addition, the emulator can help you generate indexes for your production Datastore instance and delete unneeded indexes.
Cloud Datastore is meant for applications that demand reliability upon the highly available structured data at a fixed scale. You can make use of the Google Cloud Datastore to store & query different types of data that include product catalogs, user profiles, and transactions.
Currently there is no GUI available to view/manage the data created through the Emulator. There is an open enhancement request for this at - https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/google-cloud-datastore/issues/148.
