.datastore
defself.datastore(project_id=nil,credentials=nil,scope:nil,timeout:nil,database_id:nil)->Google::Cloud::Datastore::DatasetCreates a new object for connecting to the Datastore service.Each call creates a new connection.
For more information on connecting to Google Cloud see theAuthentication Guide.
- project_id (String) — Identifier for a Datastore project. If notpresent, the default project for the credentials is used.
- credentials (Google::Auth::Credentials) — A Google::Auth::Credentialsobject. (SeeDatastore::Credentials)@note Warning: Passing a
Stringto a keyfile path or aHashof credentials is deprecated. Providing an unvalidated credential configuration to Google APIs can compromise the security of your systems and data.@example
# The recommended way to provide credentials is to use the
make_credsmethod # on the appropriate credentials class for your environment.credentials = ::Google::Auth::ServiceAccountCredentials.make_creds( json_key_io: ::File.open("/path/to/keyfile.json") )
datastore = Google::Cloud::Datastore.new( project_id: "my-project-id", credentials: credentials )
