Datastore Emulator

The Datastore Emulator image allows starting the emulator without the need to installing and configuring it locally.

The easiest way to start the emulator is to run the following command:

docker run \
  --rm \
  -p=8081:8081 \
  --env "GCP_PROJECT=<your-gcp-project>" \
  spine3/datastore-emulator

The command above starts the emulator and exposes it on the default 8081 port.

Configurations

The image is configured using a set of environment variables. The GCP_PROJECT environment variable is the only one required and holds the name of the GCP project for which the emulator is being started.

The EMULATOR_PORT allows configuring the port on which the emulator is started within the container.

The DATASTORE_CONSISTENCY allows configuring the consistency level of the emulator.
