I want to insert new entities programatically as well as manually. For this I was thinking about using key_name to uniquely identify an entity.
The problem is that I don’t know how to get the model to generate a new unique key name when I create the entity.
On the other hand, I cannot create the ID (which is unique across data store) manually.
How can I do “create unique key name if provided value is None”?
Thanks for your help!
If you really need a string id (as opposed to an automatically assigned integer id), you could use a random string generator, or unique id generator like uuid.uuid4.
