Where are the entities after uploading data?

Question

I'm trying to import my csv file into the appengine datastore, and don't get any errors, but where are the entities? I could not see it in my appengine console in the datastore section.

models.py:

from google.appengine.ext import db

class Glyph(db.Model):
    glyphId = db.IntegerProperty(indexed=True)
    pageNumber = db.IntegerProperty()
    lineNumber = db.IntegerProperty()
    position = db.IntegerProperty()
    min_x = db.IntegerProperty()
    max_x = db.IntegerProperty()
    min_y = db.IntegerProperty()
    max_y = db.IntegerProperty()
    resolution = db.IntegerProperty()

bulkloader.yaml:

python_preamble:
- import: google.appengine.ext.bulkload.transform
- import: google.appengine.ext.bulkload.bulkloader_wizard
- import: google.appengine.ext.db
- import: google.appengine.api.datastore

transformers:
- kind: Glyph
  connector: csv
  connector_options:
    encoding: utf-8
    columns: from_header
  property_map:
  - property: glyph_id
    external_name: glyph_id

  - property: page_number
    external_name: page_number

  - property: line_number
    external_name: line_number

  - property: position
    external_name: position

  - property: min_x
    external_name: min_x

  - property: max_x
    external_name: max_x

  - property: min_y
    external_name: min_y

  - property: max_y
    external_name: max_y

  - property: resolution
    external_name: resolution

glyphs.csv:

glyph_id,page_number,line_number,position,min_x,max_x,min_y,max_y,resolution
211,1,2,1,188,217,43,58,320


Environment: cygwin
Appengine version: 1.9.6
$ appcfg.py upload_data --config_file=bulkloader.yaml --filename=glyphs.csv --kind Glyph --url=http://webservice.appspot.com/_ah/remote_api --email=email@gmail.com --batch_size=1000 --rps_limit=500

Thanks in advance.

Solution: It turns out that I'm missing columns in my property_map section of my bulkloader.yaml. Fixing the mapping solved the issue.

The data are put into your models, as defined in your bulkloader.yaml. To see them quickly, go to your developer console, to Datastore Viewer:

https://appengine.google.com/datastore/explorer?&app_id=s~yourappid

You can use the pulldown menu to go from model to model. In your case, you only uploaded Glyphs, so look there.

Thanks @GAEfan. I already did, it doesn't show anything. "Oops! We couldn't retrieve your list of Kinds. Please try again later." Queries to __namespace__ are empty as well. Do I need to create one entity via the console in order to import the data? – user3802804 Jul 06 '14 at 21:07
Do you have a `models.py`, with the Kind `Glyph` defined? – GAEfan Jul 06 '14 at 22:14
Yes I do. models.py: from google.appengine.ext import db class Glyph(db.Model): glyphId = db.IntegerProperty() pageNumber = db.IntegerProperty() lineNumber = db.IntegerProperty() position = db.IntegerProperty() min_x = db.IntegerProperty() max_x = db.IntegerProperty() min_y = db.IntegerProperty() max_y = db.IntegerProperty() resolution = db.IntegerProperty() – user3802804 Jul 06 '14 at 23:03
Is your app id "webservice"? That is where they are uploaded. And your glyphs.csv is not a csv file, so not sure how it uploaded 18k items without an error. You should try adding the `--application=s~yourappname` flag to the appcfg.py command – GAEfan Jul 06 '14 at 23:56
Fixed the csv file and replaced all "|" to "," but entities still doesn't show up. I tried added --applicaton=s~webservice, but I'm getting exceptions when executing the upload_data command: [INFO 2014-07-04 18:40:10,687 bulkloader.py] Connecting to webservice.appspot.com/_ah/remote_api [ERROR 2014-07-04 18:40:10,687 bulkloader.py] Exception during authentication URLError: [ERROR 2014-07-04 18:40:10,687 bulkloader.py] Authentication Failed: Incorrect credentials or unsupported authentication t ype (e.g. OpenId). – user3802804 Jul 07 '14 at 00:16
it should ask you for your admin's email address and password. Those are what failed. Try adding the `--oauth2` flag to the appcfg.py command. – GAEfan Jul 07 '14 at 02:32
It turns out that I'm missing columns in my property_map section of my bulkloader.yaml. The datastore API silently ignore the issues. Fixing the mapping solved the issue. Thanks GAEfan for suggesting solution and fixing my csv file issue. – user3802804 Jul 07 '14 at 12:53
