Python Client for Google Cloud Datastore API
============================================

|stable| |pypi| |versions|

`Google Cloud Datastore API`_: is a fully managed, schemaless database for
storing non-relational data. Cloud Datastore automatically scales with
your users and supports ACID transactions, high availability of reads and
writes, strong consistency for reads and ancestor queries, and eventual
consistency for all other queries.

Quick Start
-----------

In order to use this library, you first need to go through the following steps:

1. `Select or create a Cloud Platform project.`_
2. `Enable billing for your project.`_
3. `Enable the Google Cloud Datastore API.`_
4. `Setup Authentication.`_

.. _Select or create a Cloud Platform project.: https://console.cloud.google.com/project
.. _Enable billing for your project.: https://cloud.google.com/billing/docs/how-to/modify-project#enable_billing_for_a_project
.. _Enable the Google Cloud Datastore API.:  https://cloud.google.com/datastore
.. _Setup Authentication.: https://googleapis.dev/python/google-api-core/latest/auth.html

Installation
~~~~~~~~~~~~

Install this library in a `virtualenv`_ using pip. `virtualenv`_ is a tool to
create isolated Python environments. The basic problem it addresses is one of
dependencies and versions, and indirectly permissions.

With `virtualenv`_, it's possible to install this library without needing system
install permissions, and without clashing with the installed system
dependencies.
