Using Search vs GDS #13

Closed emilorol closed 8 years ago

emilorol commented 8 years ago

Hi Tom,

Quick question: is there any way I could use your two libraries at once?

Since the document creation is so close to the regular entity creation on GDS, how can I utilize both so that my entities go to the datastore and be searchable at once

Hi there,

I am sure you could build a layer of software to do this - the two libraries are currently not linked together.

Hi Tom,

Thank you for your quick answer. Those this mean that if I want to use the entities I have on GDS with the Search at creation or update time I also have to create an document for them so that they can be search?

Seems like this is a common question:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23317280/appengine-search-api-vs-datastore

And the solution will seem to be use the datastore to keep your entities and the search API to retrieve their content using a full text search.
