gcloud-sdk for Rust

This library generated from Google API using tonic-build.

Disclaimer

This is NOT OFFICIAL Google Cloud SDK (and it doesn't exist for Rust at the time this page updated).

Overview

This library contains all the code generated from the Google API for gRPC and REST APIs.

When using each product API, you must explicitly include it in your build using a feature flag. For example, if you want to use Cloud Pub/Sub, write features = ["google-pubsub-v1"] to Cargo.toml.

The feature name is the period of the package name of each proto file, replaced by a hyphen. If you specify a package, it will automatically load the dependent packages and include them in the build. It means that features = ["google-firestore-v1"].

In addition, multiple features can be specified.

The list of available features can be found here.

Example for gRPC

    // The library handles getting token from environment automatically
    let firestore_client: GoogleApi<FirestoreClient<GoogleAuthMiddleware>> =
        GoogleApi::from_function(
            FirestoreClient::new,
            "https://firestore.googleapis.com",
            // cloud resource prefix: used only for some of the APIs (such as Firestore)
            Some(cloud_resource_prefix.clone()),
        )
            .await?;

    let response = firestore_client
        .get()
        .list_documents(tonic::Request::new(ListDocumentsRequest {
            parent: format!("{}/documents", cloud_resource_prefix),
            ..Default::default()
        }))
        .await?;

More complete examples are located here.

Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
gcloud-sdk = { version = "0.18", features = ["google-firestore-v1"] }
tonic = { version = "0.8", features = ["tls"] }
prost = "0.11"
prost-types = "0.11"

Example for REST API

let google_rest_client = gcloud_sdk::GoogleRestApi::new().await?;

let response = gcloud_sdk::google_rest_apis::storage::buckets_api::storage_buckets_list(
    &google_rest_client.create_google_storage_config().await?,
    gcloud_sdk::google_rest_apis::storage::buckets_api::StoragePeriodBucketsPeriodListParams {
        project: google_project_id,
        ..Default::default()
    }
).await?;

Google authentication

Default Scope is https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform.

To specify custom scopes there is from_function_with_scopes() function instead of from_function();

Looks for credentials in the following places, preferring the first location found:

A JSON file whose path is specified by the GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS environment variable.
A JSON file in a location known to the gcloud command-line tool using gcloud auth application-default login.
On Google Compute Engine, it fetches credentials from the metadata server.

Local development

Don't confuse gcloud auth login with gcloud auth application-default login for local development, since the first authorize only gcloud tool to access the Cloud Platform.

The latter obtains user access credentials via a web flow and puts them in the well-known location for Application Default Credentials (ADC). This command is useful when you are developing code that would normally use a service account but need to run the code in a local development environment where it's easier to provide user credentials. So to work for local development you need to use gcloud auth application-default login.

Fork-based

The library based on a fork of mechiru/googapis and mechiru/gouth libraries and also adds additional functionality not available originally:

Google API client management and Tower-based middleware layer to simplify development to provide an async client implementation that hides complexity working with tokens and TLS.
Google REST APIs support additionally to gRPC.
Improved observability with tracing and measuring execution time of endpoints.
Uses synchronisation primitives (such as Mutex) from tokio everywhere and has direct dependencies to tokio runtime.
Security-related protocol extensions for Google Secret Manager and KMS.

Why not to contribute back?

Different goals from googapis.
- This fork focuses on simplicity and provided authentication capabilities natively.
- Provides a high level facade API for Google API client.
Different development cycles - the original development was updated less frequently than it was needed.

High-level APIs

Sometimes using proto generated APIs are tedious and cumbersome, so you may need to introduce facade APIs on top of them:

firestore-rs - to work with Firestore;
secret-vault - to read secrets from Google Secret Manager;
kms-aead - envelope encryption using Google KMS and Ring AEAD.
opentelemetry-gcloud-trace - Google Cloud Trace support for OpenTelemetry project.
