Google Cloud Ruby Client

Idiomatic Ruby client for Google Cloud Platform services.

This client supports the following Google Cloud Platform services at a General Availability (GA) quality level:

BigQuery (GA)
Cloud Datastore (GA)
Stackdriver Logging (GA)
Cloud Spanner API (GA)
Cloud Storage (GA)
Cloud Translation API (GA)
Cloud Video Intelligence API (GA)

This client supports the following Google Cloud Platform services at a Beta quality level:

BigQuery Data Transfer (Beta)
Stackdriver Debugger (Beta)
Stackdriver Error Reporting (Beta)
Cloud Firestore (Beta)
Cloud Pub/Sub (Beta)
Stackdriver Monitoring API (Beta)
Stackdriver Trace (Beta)

This client supports the following Google Cloud Platform services at an Alpha quality level:

Container Engine (Alpha)
Cloud Dataproc (Alpha)
Data Loss Prevention (Alpha)
Dialogflow API (Alpha)
Cloud DNS (Alpha)
Cloud Natural Language API (Alpha)
Cloud OS Login (Alpha)
Cloud Redis (Alpha)
Cloud Resource Manager (Alpha)
Cloud Speech API (Alpha)
Cloud Tasks API (Alpha)
Cloud Vision API (Alpha)

The support for each service is distributed as a separate gem. However, for your convenience, the google-cloud gem lets you install the entire collection.

If you need support for other Google APIs, check out the Google API Ruby Client library.

Quick Start

$ gem install google-cloud

The google-cloud gem shown above provides all of the individual service gems in the google-cloud-ruby project, making it easy to explore Google Cloud Platform. To avoid unnecessary dependencies, you can also install the service gems independently.

Authentication

In general, the google-cloud-ruby library uses Service Account credentials to connect to Google Cloud services. When running on Compute Engine the credentials will be discovered automatically. When running on other environments, the Service Account credentials can be specified by providing the path to the JSON keyfile for the account (or the JSON itself) in environment variables. Additionally, Cloud SDK credentials can also be discovered automatically, but this is only recommended during development.

General instructions, environment variables, and configuration options are covered in the general Authentication guide for the google-cloud umbrella package. Specific instructions and environment variables for each individual service are linked from the README documents listed below for each service.

The preview examples below demonstrate how to provide the Project ID and Credentials JSON file path directly in code.

Supported Ruby Versions

These libraries are currently supported on Ruby 2.0+.

However, Ruby 2.3 or later is strongly recommended, as earlier releases have reached or are nearing end-of-life. After June 1, 2018, Google will provide official support only for Ruby versions that are considered current and supported by Ruby Core (that is, Ruby versions that are either in normal maintenance or in security maintenance). See https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/branches/ for further details.

Versioning

This library follows Semantic Versioning.

Please note it is currently under active development. Any release versioned 0.x.y is subject to backwards incompatible changes at any time.

GA: Libraries defined at the GA (general availability) quality level are stable. The code surface will not change in backwards-incompatible ways unless absolutely necessary (e.g. because of critical security issues) or with an extensive deprecation period. Issues and requests against GA libraries are addressed with the highest priority.

Please note that the auto-generated portions of the GA libraries (the ones in modules such as v1 or v2) are considered to be of Beta quality, even if the libraries that wrap them are GA.

Beta: Libraries defined at a Beta quality level are expected to be mostly stable and we're working towards their release candidate. We will address issues and requests with a higher priority.

Alpha: Libraries defined at an Alpha quality level are still a work-in-progress and are more likely to get backwards-incompatible updates.

Contributing

Contributions to this library are always welcome and highly encouraged.

See CONTRIBUTING for more information on how to get started.

Please note that this project is released with a Contributor Code of Conduct. By participating in this project you agree to abide by its terms. See Code of Conduct for more information.
