Node.JS数据存储区查询获取密钥

Question

How can I get the key of an entity returned by a query?

I tried to access it like the normal data, but when I print the entity itself there is no key. Is there even a way to do so?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Answer 1

Since version 0.5.0 of the @google-cloud/datastore v0.5.0 the key is now accesible by a Symbol.

var datastore = require('@google-cloud/datastore')();
var query = datastore.createQuery('AnimalNamespace', 'Lion');
query.run(function(err, entities) {

var keys = entities.map(function(entity) {
        // datastore.KEY is a Symbol
        return entity[datastore.KEY];
    });
});

You could also use the gstore-node library ( https://github.com/sebelga/gstore-node ) and then you would access it directly by entity.entityKey

According to the documentation , datastore.runQuery returns a entity objects, with the properties data and key . You are interested in key .

datastore.runQuery(query, function(err, entities) {
  // entities = [
  //   {
  //     data: The record,
  //     key: The key for this record
  //   },
  //   ...
  // ]
});

So, for example using the first entity, you would access the key like this:

entity = entities[0]
key = entity.key
