Local storage browser for Google Cloud Storage and dev_appserver.py

Question

Does anyone know if there is a version of the Google Cloud Storage storage browser (console.developers.google.com/project/apps~{application name}/storage) to use during deve

Answer 1

I was able to find the files I wrote to google cloud storage when running locally at:

     localhost:port/_ah/gcs/bucket_name/file_suffix

Where port is by default 8080, and the file was written to: /bucket_name/file_suffix

It's still not ideal for testing, but better than nothing!

Answer 2

If you visit the admin server at localhost:8000 you can see the files inside of the blobstore viewer. You can tell they are GCS files because their keys will start with encoded_gs_file: but you cannot see the filenames.

Answer 3

Cloud Storage Viewer is not available for local development server. GCS client library can be used to run local tests.
