title: Google cloud datastore emulator init data
body: <p>I would like to use the google cloud datastore emulator for a local project. I have already installed and ran the emulator with :</p>
  
  <pre><code>gcloud beta emulators datastore start
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My app connects to it, but the problem is that I do not know how to fill it with entities since there is no user interface and my application requires some admin users to be present.</p>
  
  <p>I also tried to export the production database (datastore) with the following command:</p>
  
  <pre><code> gcloud datastore export
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but couldn't make it work.</p>
  
  <p>Should I write a standalone js/python script that fills the database programatically ?</p>
  
  <p>Please advise</p>
