# Google Cloud Client Libraries for Go

[![GoDoc](https://godoc.org/cloud.google.com/go?status.svg)](https://godoc.org/cloud.google.com/go)

Go packages for [Google Cloud Platform](https://cloud.google.com) services.

``` go
import "cloud.google.com/go"
```

To install the packages on your system, *do not clone the repo*. Instead use

```
$ go get -u cloud.google.com/go/...
```

**NOTE:** Some of these packages are under development, and may occasionally
make backwards-incompatible changes.

**NOTE:** Github repo is a mirror of [https://code.googlesource.com/gocloud](https://code.googlesource.com/gocloud).

## News

_7 August 2018_

As of November 1, the code in the repo will no longer support Go versions 1.8
and earlier. No one other than AppEngine users should be on those old versions,
and AppEngine
[Standard](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/google-appengine-go/e7oPNomd7ak)
and
[Flex](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/google-appengine-go/wHsYtxvEbXI)
will stop supporting new deployments with those versions on that date.


Changes have been moved to [CHANGES](https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/google-cloud-go/blob/master/CHANGES.md).

> **Alpha status**: the API is still being actively developed. As a
> result, it might change in backward-incompatible ways and is not recommended
> for production use.
>
> **Beta status**: the API is largely complete, but still has outstanding
> features and bugs to be addressed. There may be minor backwards-incompatible
> changes where necessary.
>
> **Stable status**: the API is mature and ready for production use. We will
> continue addressing bugs and feature requests.

for updates on these packages.

## Go Versions Supported

We support the two most recent major versions of Go. If Google App Engine uses
an older version, we support that as well.

## Authorization

By default, each API will use [Google Application Default Credentials][default-creds]
for authorization credentials used in calling the API endpoints. This will allow your
application to run in many environments without requiring explicit configuration.

[snip]:# (auth)
```go
client, err := storage.NewClient(ctx)
```

To authorize using a
[JSON key file](https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/managing-service-account-keys),
pass
[`option.WithCredentialsFile`](https://godoc.org/google.golang.org/api/option#WithCredentialsFile)
to the `NewClient` function of the desired package. For example:

[snip]:# (auth-JSON)
```go
client, err := storage.NewClient(ctx, option.WithCredentialsFile("path/to/keyfile.json"))
```

You can exert more control over authorization by using the
[`golang.org/x/oauth2`](https://godoc.org/golang.org/x/oauth2) package to
create an `oauth2.TokenSource`. Then pass
[`option.WithTokenSource`](https://godoc.org/google.golang.org/api/option#WithTokenSource)
to the `NewClient` function:
[snip]:# (auth-ts)
```go
tokenSource := ...
client, err := storage.NewClient(ctx, option.WithTokenSource(tokenSource))
```

## Cloud Datastore [![GoDoc](https://godoc.org/cloud.google.com/go/datastore?status.svg)](https://godoc.org/cloud.google.com/go/datastore)

- [About Cloud Datastore][cloud-datastore]
- [Activating the API for your project][cloud-datastore-activation]

- [Go client documentation](https://godoc.org/cloud.google.com/go/datastore)
- [Complete sample program](https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/golang-samples/tree/master/datastore/tasks)

### Example Usage

First create a `datastore.Client` to use throughout your application:

[snip]:# (datastore-1)
```go
client, err := datastore.NewClient(ctx, "my-project-id")
if err != nil {
	log.Fatal(err)
}
```

Then use that client to interact with the API:

[snip]:# (datastore-2)
```go
type Post struct {
	Title       string
	Body        string `datastore:",noindex"`
	PublishedAt time.Time
}
keys := []*datastore.Key{
	datastore.NameKey("Post", "post1", nil),
	datastore.NameKey("Post", "post2", nil),
}
posts := []*Post{
	{Title: "Post 1", Body: "...", PublishedAt: time.Now()},
	{Title: "Post 2", Body: "...", PublishedAt: time.Now()},
}
if _, err := client.PutMulti(ctx, keys, posts); err != nil {
	log.Fatal(err)
}
```

[snip]:# (storage-1)
```go
client, err := storage.NewClient(ctx)
if err != nil {
	log.Fatal(err)
}
```

[snip]:# (storage-2)
```go
// Read the object1 from bucket.
rc, err := client.Bucket("bucket").Object("object1").NewReader(ctx)
if err != nil {
	log.Fatal(err)
}
defer rc.Close()
body, err := ioutil.ReadAll(rc)
if err != nil {
	log.Fatal(err)
}
```

## Cloud Pub/Sub [![GoDoc](https://godoc.org/cloud.google.com/go/pubsub?status.svg)](https://godoc.org/cloud.google.com/go/pubsub)

- [API documentation][cloud-pubsub-docs]
- [Go client documentation](https://godoc.org/cloud.google.com/go/pubsub)
- [Complete sample programs](https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/golang-samples/tree/master/pubsub)

### Example Usage

First create a `pubsub.Client` to use throughout your application:

[snip]:# (pubsub-1)
```go
client, err := pubsub.NewClient(ctx, "project-id")
if err != nil {
	log.Fatal(err)
}
```

Then use the client to publish and subscribe:

[snip]:# (pubsub-2)
```go
// Publish "hello world" on topic1.
topic := client.Topic("topic1")
res := topic.Publish(ctx, &pubsub.Message{
	Data: []byte("hello world"),
})
// The publish happens asynchronously.
// Later, you can get the result from res:
...
msgID, err := res.Get(ctx)
if err != nil {
	log.Fatal(err)
}

// Use a callback to receive messages via subscription1.
sub := client.Subscription("subscription1")
err = sub.Receive(ctx, func(ctx context.Context, m *pubsub.Message) {
	fmt.Println(m.Data)
	m.Ack() // Acknowledge that we've consumed the message.
})
if err != nil {
	log.Println(err)
}
```

## BigQuery [![GoDoc](https://godoc.org/cloud.google.com/go/bigquery?status.svg)](https://godoc.org/cloud.google.com/go/bigquery)

- [About BigQuery][cloud-bigquery]
- [API documentation][cloud-bigquery-docs]
- [Go client documentation][cloud-bigquery-ref]
- [Complete sample programs](https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/golang-samples/tree/master/bigquery)

### Example Usage

First create a `bigquery.Client` to use throughout your application:
[snip]:# (bq-1)
```go
c, err := bigquery.NewClient(ctx, "my-project-ID")
if err != nil {
	// TODO: Handle error.
}
```

Then use that client to interact with the API:
[snip]:# (bq-2)
```go
// Construct a query.
q := c.Query(`
    SELECT year, SUM(number)
    FROM [bigquery-public-data:usa_names.usa_1910_2013]
    WHERE name = "William"
    GROUP BY year
    ORDER BY year
`)
// Execute the query.
it, err := q.Read(ctx)
if err != nil {
	// TODO: Handle error.
}
// Iterate through the results.
for {
	var values []bigquery.Value
	err := it.Next(&values)
	if err == iterator.Done {
		break
	}
	if err != nil {
		// TODO: Handle error.
	}
	fmt.Println(values)
}
```


## Stackdriver Logging [![GoDoc](https://godoc.org/cloud.google.com/go/logging?status.svg)](https://godoc.org/cloud.google.com/go/logging)

- [About Stackdriver Logging][cloud-logging]
- [API documentation][cloud-logging-docs]
- [Go client documentation][cloud-logging-ref]
- [Complete sample programs](https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/golang-samples/tree/master/logging)

[snip]:# (logging-1)
```go
ctx := context.Background()
client, err := logging.NewClient(ctx, "my-project")
if err != nil {
	// TODO: Handle error.
}
```

Usually, you'll want to add log entries to a buffer to be periodically flushed
(automatically and asynchronously) to the Stackdriver Logging service.
[snip]:# (logging-2)
```go
logger := client.Logger("my-log")
logger.Log(logging.Entry{Payload: "something happened!"})
```

Close your client before your program exits, to flush any buffered log entries.
[snip]:# (logging-3)
```go
err = client.Close()
if err != nil {
	// TODO: Handle error.
}
```

```go
// Simple Reads And Writes
_, err = client.Apply(ctx, []*spanner.Mutation{
	spanner.Insert("Users",
		[]string{"name", "email"},
		[]interface{}{"alice", "a@example.com"})})
if err != nil {
	log.Fatal(err)
}
row, err := client.Single().ReadRow(ctx, "Users",
	spanner.Key{"alice"}, []string{"email"})
if err != nil {
	log.Fatal(err)
}
```
