Q: 

How can I persist the local datastore for GoogleAppEngineLauncher between reboots?

I'm using GoogleAppEngineLauncher (GAEL) on Mac OS X. The state of the datastore for my application is persisted between server restarts and even GAEL restarts, but if I reboot, the datastore is reset. Is there a setting to prevent this reset, or is there a tmp file somewhere that I can save off?

+2  A: 
  1. Click on Edit -> Application Settings
  2. Under 'Extra Flags', enter "--datastore_path=/Users/yourname/somewhere"
  3. Enjoy your now-permanent datastore.
