title: Google App Engine GQL query on localhost
body: <p>I am developing an app on Google App Engine (SDK version 1.7.0 on Windows) that I need to test often, and this testing involves a lot of GQL queries on the datastore.</p>
  
  <p>You can run GQL queries at the browser in App Engine's admin interface online:</p>

  <p>But this seems to be not possible on the SDK admin console on localhost. There is no such option:</p>
  
  <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/ZiLgC.png" alt="No GQL query on local host"></p>
  
  <p>So it seems I can run GQL queries only through python scripts on my localhost. </p>
  
  <p>It's not convenient to write a python script every time to query the results for short tasks here and there. Also, if you do it at the online admin interface, you can see the query results immediately in a nice table below. If you want to visualize all your query results in a browser window through a python script you'd have to write a lot more code, basically trying to rewrite what Google has already done very well at their server admin interface.</p>
  
  <p>So I am stuck having to do this at the browser on the App Engine admin interface after deployment, which keeps adding to my allowed operations count until I have soon hit my free daily quota limit.</p>
  
  <p>So isn't there any way to run GQL queries (non-programmatically, on a browser) on my localhost?</p>
