Google documentation is not clear for me. Documentation provided there
is not helping much with modeling entities. This requires some
practice, so I thought that If there were some ways to access this
APIs through Idle. This is not as simple as adding some directories to
PYTHONPATH. There are some more things to be done before working
directly on datastore through Idle. This is not documented, but
luckily got some help from the group, google-appengine.

No. That won't help, because this datastore is not a relational
database, but Google's proprietary format called BigTable.

I am just experimenting with google-appengine, and building an
application on it.
