You'd want to ensure that you are correctly setting the emulator environment variables with $(gcloud beta emulators datastore env-init) after starting it according to the docs <https://cloud.google.com/datastore/docs/tools/datastore-emulator>, however even when I do that the bookshelf sample app crashes for me after writing one entity. It looks like the sample app doesn't work with the emulator at this time (note that nowhere in the tutorial does it actually mention that it does).
The tutorial itself is in need of an update in any case, as you see from the list of open issues <https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/nodejs-getting-started/issues>on its GitHub page. I also needed to manually update the dependencies to get npm install to even work. On Friday, February 24, 2017 at 9:44:32 AM UTC-5, Alexey Gromov wrote: > > Hi, > > I'm new in the GCP.
