I am doing a research project on the JSON JSONIQ using Google App Engine and its Datastore. The Datastore is NoSQL so it is what I need for my JSON to work, but the problem is I am not able to export the datastore as JSON file. Also, I am using Java for the backend. Can please anyone guide on the process of exporting the datastore and using it as JSON for further JSONIQ query.
Thank you in advance.
David,
I don't know if there is any way to use JSONIQ to grab data out of the datastore. I briefly reviewed their website and it's possible you could build a bridging layer between them once you actually have the JSON representation of the data. Appengine uses their own DSL which is called GQL (Google Query Language) to pull data out of the datastore.
To get the data out of the data store in JSON format I use objectify (a abstraction layer over the datastore API) to grab the needed entities I have and then I use Gson to convert them to their JSON representation. Hope this helps.
