Question

I can update the live datastore using the remote API but is there something similar for the local datastore ? My data is in CSV format.

When I try to connect locally using below code

String username = "test";
String password = "test";
    RemoteApiOptions options = new RemoteApiOptions().server("localhost", 8888).credentials(username, password);
RemoteApiInstaller installer = new RemoteApiInstaller();
installer.install(options);

I get an exception :

Exception in thread “main” java.net.UnknownHostException: http

The exception is thrown at line :

installer.install(options);

The local server is running, am I connecting correctly ? Do I need to start the local remote_api server separately ?

I finally got this to work through alot of searching. The dev url/password is XXXX/XXXX
