Is there a datastore viewer in google app engine launcher? - google-app-engine

Is there a datastore viewer in Google App Engine Launcher? Something similar to the Datastore Viewer that can be found within the GAE website?
Thanks.

There isn't a datastore viewer that is specifically part of the Launcher, but the dev server provides an admin console that has a datastore viewer. While dev_appserver.py (or whatever the Java equivalent is) is running, go to /_ah/admin in your browser.

Yes. Click on 'SDK console' when your app is running; this is the equivalent to going to /_ah/admin as suggested by Adam.

Under Eclipse there is plugin: http://appwrench.onpositive.com/index.page

Google App Engine - Google APIs Console - Google Cloud Console

I wanted to ask what the difference between Google App Engine, Google APIs Console and Google Cloud Console is?
I will deploy a Project which will fetch some Websites and provide the data to my Android Application.
What is the best to use? I do not know what is for what.
Google App Engine lets you run web applications on Google's infrastructure : https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/whatisgoogleappengine
Google APIs Console is Console to administrate Google API (deprecated)
Google Cloud Console is new version of Google APIs Console.
So for your Project use Google App Engine.
And for example use URL Fetch https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/python/urlfetch/
A bit of background: At one point in time, Google APIs had its own console and Google App Engine had its own console. Eventually, it was decided that we should merge these two consoles into one console. We've already turned down the APIs console, and we're working on turning down the App Engine admin console.
So to answer your question: you should use the Cloud console unless you need to use the App Engine admin console for some obscure reason.

A tool to browse/extract data from the Google App Engine Datastore?

I'm looking for tool (data extract utility) to browse/extract data from the Google App Engine Datastore. I found one but it hasn't been released - GAEBrowser. Does anybody know of a similar tool? Thanks in advance!
I know one, of course, the datastore viewer in GAE admin console: https://appengine.google.com/datastore/explorer?&app_id={yourappid}
What's wrong with the official datastore viewer anyway?
You might also look into remote_api, which lets you write Python scripts that run on your own computer but access your app's Datastore: https://developers.google.com/appengine/articles/remote_api

GUI for Google AppEngine DataStore

Is there a GUI for Google AppEngine DataStore ?
I'm looking for something similar to phpMyAdmin.
Thanks a lot.
appengine.google.com has its own datastore viewer. where you can login and view the complete datastore for all your applications. In the development server, appengine SDK emulates the same. You can access it like http://localhost:8080/_ah/admin
Yes, in your app dashboard, on the left you see section Data. In that click on datastore viewer. Ofcourse this works if your app is hosted on app engine, for local server see, How to browse local Java App Engine datastore?

Google App Engine database viewer/browser?

Does Google App Engine offer any kind of database browser/viewer tool which can show CURRENT data? 1-day late database view was offered, however, it's not enough.
appengine.google.com has its own datastore viewer. where you can login and view the complete datastore for all your applications. In the development server, appengine SDK emulates the same. You can access it like http://localhost:8080/_ah/admin
Datastore on the appengine is accessible at,
https://console.developers.google.com/datastore/entities/query?project=yourappid
(replace yourappid appropriately)
This will be the current data.
I think that datastore viewer in development server can be accessed through http://localhost:8888/_ah/admin instead.
If you're using GoogleAppEngineLauncher, you can see Admin Port and the Port. Go to the Admin Port to access the datastore.

What is the admin url in an App Engine application?

I once used a page automatically created by App Engine SDK to view the database contents and other info, but I lost the URL. Do you know it? Does it work in production?
The development console url is http://localhost:8080/_ah/admin/.
It does not work in production, but you can use GAE's dashboard in this case: https://appengine.google.com/.
Dev server's documentation is available here.
It's http://appengine.google.com/ if you're not using Google Apps.
Otherwise, it's http://appengine.google.com/a/<your-domain>
There is a section on Data there that includes the Datastore viewer, indexes, etc..
In case you found this answer and you're using App Engine SDK 1.7.6 or higher, the default URL has changed from localhost:8080/_ah/admin to localhost:8000.
