在本地主机上重置Google App Engine应用程序数据

Question

I've noticed my google app engine app that I'm developing on my local host is being reset every night, even though I am only running it with the command dev_appserver.py . and not explicitly resetting the data.

The data/app persists during the day but seems to be reset every night. I've checked the admin dashboard but did not find any settings pertaining to this.

Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Thanks

The dev server puts the datastore in a temp directory, and it resets every time you start. If you want the local datastore to persist, make/use a real directory, and use the datastore_path flag:

--datastore_path=/path/to/your/datastore/directory/dev_appserver.datastore
