Cannot find an effective way to set 'Date time' for a property when creating an entity in Cloud Datastore using Cloud Functions
I am using a Python 3.7 Cloud Function which takes a JSON file as input. The JSON has an array of objects, which are read one by one to create a datastore entity object, which is then written to the datastore. In datastore all properties are stored as 'string'. I would like the date fields to be stored as 'Date time' property of the Cloud Datastore entity.
dsclient = datastore.Client(os.environ.get('project_id'))
client = storage.Client()
bucket = client.get_bucket(event['bucket'])
blob = bucket.blob(event['name'])
input_bytes = blob.download_as_string()
input_string = input_bytes.decode("utf-8")
obj = json.loads(input_string)
length = len(obj[kind])
for i in range(0, length):
key = obj[kind][i]['Key']
score = create_score(obj[kind][i], key, ns)
dsclient.put(score)
def create_score(score, key, ns):
"""creates the score datastore entity"""
pkey = dsclient.key(kind, key, namespace='test')
score_entity = datastore.Entity(
key=pkey,
exclude_from_indexes=exclude_index_list
)
score_entity.update(score)
return score_entity
The statement score_entity.update(score)
creates all properties as Strings. Is there a way I can specify the datatypes of each property on creation? I have seen that this is possible using the Python nbd
model on App Engine. But I am not using App Engine to create the entity, it is a Cloud Function.
You need to make sure that the property is a datetime.datetime
, not a datetime.date
or another type of object (including strings).
You should be able do something like:
score_entity = datastore.Entity(
key=pkey,
exclude_from_indexes=exclude_index_list
)
score_entity["your_datetime"] = datetime.datetime.now()
...
client.put(score_entity)
