1. Select or create a Cloud Platform project.
2. Enable the Google Cloud Datastore API.
3. Set up authentication so you can access theAPI from your local workstation.

npm install @google-cloud/datastore

// Imports the Google Cloud client libraryconst{Datastore}=require('@google-cloud/datastore');// Creates a clientconstdatastore=newDatastore();asyncfunctionquickstart(){// The kind for the new entityconstkind='Task';// The name/ID for the new entityconstname='sampletask1';// The Cloud Datastore key for the new entityconsttaskKey=datastore.key([kind,name]);// Prepares the new entityconsttask={key:taskKey,data:{description:'Buy milk',},};// Saves the entityawaitdatastore.save(task);console.log(`Saved${task.key.name}:${task.data.description}`);}quickstart();

Reference Issue:#95

When using the emulator, you may experience errors such as "DEADLINE_EXCEEDED" within your application, corresponding to an error in the emulator: "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError". These errors are unique to the emulator environment and will not persist in production.

A workaround is available, provided by@ohmpatel1997here.

Samples are in thesamples/ directory. Each sample'sREADME.md has instructions for running its sample.

TheGoogle Cloud Datastore Node.js Client API Reference documentationalso contains samples.

Our client libraries follow theNode.js release schedule.Libraries are compatible with all currentactive andmaintenance versions ofNode.js.If you are using an end-of-life version of Node.js, we recommend that you updateas soon as possible to an actively supported LTS version.

Google's client libraries support legacy versions of Node.js runtimes on abest-efforts basis with the following warnings:

• Legacy versions are not tested in continuous integration.
• Some security patches and features cannot be backported.
• Dependencies cannot be kept up-to-date.

Client libraries targeting some end-of-life versions of Node.js are available, andcan be installed through npmdist-tags.The dist-tags follow the naming conventionlegacy-(version).For example,npm install @google-cloud/datastore@legacy-8 installs client librariesfor versions compatible with Node.js 8.

This library followsSemantic Versioning.

This library is considered to bestable. The code surface will not change in backwards-incompatible waysunless absolutely necessary (e.g. because of critical security issues) or withan extensive deprecation period. Issues and requests againststable librariesare addressed with the highest priority.
