Google APIs

A thin layer on top of Google::APIClient for a more intuitive way of working (e.g. with BigQuery)

Installation

Add GoogleApis in your Gemfile:

gem "google-apis"

Run the following in your console to install with Bundler:

$ bundle install

Usage

The easiest setup is to define an application-wide Google API connection followed by instantiating an API instance.

Make sure you have created a Client ID (application type "Service account") at your projects API credentials page (https://console.developers.google.com/project/your_project_id/apiui/credential).

Enable the API at your Console API page (https://console.developers.google.com/project/your_project_id/apiui/api).

Do not forget to download the private key by generating a JSON key file.

[1] pry(main)> GoogleApis.connect :email_address => "lorem@developer.gserviceaccount.com", :private_key => "/path/to/private/key.json"
=> #<GoogleApis::Connection:0x007fa5a4743668 [lorem@developer.gserviceaccount.com]>
[2] pry(main)> bq = Google::BigQuery.new :project_id => "your_project_id", :dataset_id => "your_dataset_id"
=> #<Google::BigQuery:0x007fc5c68647a8 v2:[datasets,jobs,projects,tabledata,tables] {projectId:"your_project_id",datasetId:"your_dataset_id"}>
[3] pry(main)> bq.tables.list
=> {"kind"=>"bigquery#tableList",
 "etag"=>"\"Fo0B4r/LoR3M-1pSuM-D0loR-s1T-AM3t\"",
 "tables"=>
  [{"kind"=>"bigquery#table",
    "id"=>"your_project_id:your_dataset_id.awesome_table_19820801",
    "tableReference"=>{"projectId"=>"your_project_id", "datasetId"=>"your_dataset_id", "tableId"=>"awesome_table_19820801"},
    "type"=>"TABLE"}],
 "totalItems"=>1}
[4] pry(main)> bq.jobs.query :query => "SELECT * FROM [your_dataset_id.awesome_table_19820801] LIMIT 5"
=> {"kind"=>"bigquery#queryResponse",
 "schema"=>
  {"fields"=>
    [{"name"=>"awesome_column1", "type"=>"STRING", "mode"=>"NULLABLE"},
     {"name"=>"awesome_column2", "type"=>"STRING", "mode"=>"NULLABLE"},
     {"name"=>"awesome_column3", "type"=>"STRING", "mode"=>"NULLABLE"},
...

Easy API discovery info

GoogleApis quickly displays the resources and methods a certain API provides.

[5] pry(main)> bq
=> #<Google::BigQuery:0x007fc5c68647a8 v2:[datasets,jobs,projects,tabledata,tables] {projectId:"your_project_id",datasetId:"your_dataset_id"}>
[6] pry(main)> bq.jobs
=> #<Google::BigQuery::Resource:0x007f8c09c60c68 v2:jobs:[get,getQueryResults,insert,list,query]>
[7] pry(main)> bq.jobs[:query]
=> {"id"=>"bigquery.jobs.query",
 "path"=>"projects/{projectId}/queries",
 "httpMethod"=>"POST",
 "description"=>"Runs a BigQuery SQL query synchronously and returns query results if the query completes within a specified timeout.",
 "parameters"=>{"projectId"=>{"type"=>"string", "description"=>"Project ID of the project billed for the query", "required"=>true, "location"=>"path"}},
 "parameterOrder"=>["projectId"],
 "request"=>{"$ref"=>"QueryRequest"},
 "response"=>{"$ref"=>"QueryResponse"},
 "scopes"=>["https://www.googleapis.com/auth/bigquery", "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform"]}

Application-wide API connections

Google::BigQuery.connection

You can also configure an application-wide API connection. Let's say you also stored the connection configuration in config/bigquery.yml:

---
  email_address: lorem@developer.gserviceaccount.com
  private_key: "/path/to/private/key.json"
  project_id: your_project_id
  dataset_id: your_dataset_id
[1] pry(main)> require "yaml"
=> true
[2] pry(main)> Google::BigQuery.connect YAML.load_file("config/bigquery.yml")
=> #<Google::BigQuery:0x007fdc1c6823b0 v2:[datasets,jobs,projects,tabledata,tables] {projectId:"your_project_id",datasetId:"your_dataset_id"}>
[3] pry(main)> Google::BigQuery.jobs
=> #<Google::BigQuery::Resource:0x007fdc1e94d5c0 v2:jobs:[get,getQueryResults,insert,list,query]>
[4] pry(main)> Google::BigQuery.select_rows "SELECT * FROM [your_dataset_id.awesome_table_19820801] LIMIT 4"
=> [["1982-08-01", "Paul is awesome", "Paul", "Engel", 19],
 ["1982-08-01", "GoogleApis is cool", "Google", "Apis", 82],
 ["1982-08-01", "Hello world!", "Foo", "Bar", 8],
 ["1982-08-01", "Try out this gem :)", "It's", "very easy", 1]]

Please note that Google::BigQuery.connection is provided with several methods resembling ActiveRecord: #select_rows, #select_values and #select_value.

Google::Storage.connection

The following example demonstrates how to download and upload a file from Google Storage:

[1] pry(main)> Google::Storage.connect :email_address => "lorem@developer.gserviceaccount.com", :private_key => "/path/to/private/key.json"
=> #<Google::Storage:0x007fe522024f68 v1:[bucketAccessControls,buckets,channels,defaultObjectAccessControls,objectAccessControls,objects] {}>
[2] pry(main)> metadata = Google::Storage.objects.list :bucket => "your-bucket", :prefix => "path/to/your/file/awesome.tsv"
=> {"kind"=>"storage#objects",
 "items"=>
  [{"kind"=>"storage#object",
    "id"=>"your-bucket/path/to/your/file/awesome.tsv/1425499569141000",
    "selfLink"=>"https://www.googleapis.com/storage/v1/b/your-bucket/o/path%2Fto%2Fyour%2Ffile%2Fawesome.tsv",
    "name"=>"path/to/your/file/awesome.tsv",

    "owner"=>{"entity"=>"user-00b4903a97b10389ce680ca45ba5999e068c4d0c8ccbbfbb7094238bc85a567", "entityId"=>"00b4903a97b20004ce680ca5f5aeebe068c4d0c8ccbbfbb7094266d1b9787457"},
    "crc32c"=>"P4UlsJQ==",
    "etag"=>"EN93lyNu/j8QCEAE="}]}
[3] pry(main)> Google::Storage.download metadata["items"][0]["mediaLink"], "foo/"
=> 5592792
[4] pry(main)> puts `ls -l foo | grep awesome`
-rw-rw-r--  1 paulengel  paulengel  5592792 Apr 17 16:38 awesome.tsv
=> nil
[5] pry(main)> Google::Storage.objects.insert :bucket => "your-bucket", :media => "path/to/your/local/awesome.file.gz", :directory => "awesome_directory"
=> {"kind"=>"storage#object",
 "id"=>"your-bucket/awesome_directory/awesome.file.gz/1429539088390000",

 "crc32c"=>"qPMe/Q==",
 "etag"=>"ENGluYyIhcUCEAE="}

Easy, huh? :)

Google::Drive.connection

Please make sure that you also have created a "Public API access" server key and added your IP to the allowed IPs at the API credentials page.

[1] pry(main)> Google::Drive.connect :email_address => "lorem@developer.gserviceaccount.com", :private_key => "/path/to/private/key.json"
=> #<Google::Drive:0x007f83ee39fcc8 v2:[about,apps,changes,channels,children,comments,files,parents,permissions,properties,realtime,replies,revisions] {}>
[2] pry(main)> Google::Drive.files.list
=> {"kind"=>"drive#fileList",
 "etag"=>"\"4GaIn/LoR3M-1pSuM-D0loR-s1T-AM3t\"",
 "selfLink"=>"https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v2/files",
 "items"=>
  [{"kind"=>"drive#file",
    "id"=>"12-On3Tw0w4ntO0-0neTh0",
...

One Google API connection to rule them all

If it isn't already clear, you can specify a global Google API connection and use different APIs:

---
  email_address: lorem@developer.gserviceaccount.com
  private_key: "/path/to/private/key.json"
  project_id: your_project_id
  dataset_id: your_dataset_id
  bucket: your_bucket
[1] pry(main)> require "yaml"
=> true
[2] pry(main)> GoogleApis.connect YAML.load_file("config/google-apis.yml")
=> #<GoogleApis::Connection:0x007ffe0aa95d70 [lorem@developer.gserviceaccount.com]>
[3] pry(main)> Google::Drive.files.list
=> {"kind"=>"drive#fileList",
...
[4] pry(main)> Google::BigQuery.connection
=> #<Google::BigQuery:0x007ffe0b1fb240 v2:[datasets,jobs,projects,tabledata,tables] {projectId:"your_project_id",datasetId:"your_dataset_id"}>
[5] pry(main)> Google::BigQuery.tables.list
=> {"kind"=>"bigquery#tableList",
...
[6] pry(main)> Google::Storage.objects.list :prefix => "path/to/your/file/awesome.txt"
=> {"kind"=>"storage#objects",
...

Using the console

The GoogleApis repo is provided with script/console which you can use for development / testing purposes.

Run the following command in your console:

$ script/console
Loading Google APIs development environment (0.2.0)
[1] pry(main)> GoogleApis.connect :email_address => "lorem@developer.gserviceaccount.com", :private_key => "/path/to/private/key.json"
=> #<GoogleApis::Connection:0x007ff3d356cbf0 [lorem@developer.gserviceaccount.com]>
[2] pry(main)> bq = Google::BigQuery.new :project_id => "your_project_id", :dataset_id => "your_dataset_id"
=> #<Google::BigQuery:0x007f8c09a05338 v2:[datasets,jobs,projects,tabledata,tables] {projectId:"your_project_id",datasetId:"your_dataset_id"}>

You can also define script/config.yml containing the connection config:

---
  email_address: lorem@developer.gserviceaccount.com
  private_key: "/path/to/private/key.json"
  project_id: your_project_id
  dataset_id: your_dataset_id

And immediately start instantiating a Google API:

$ script/console
Loading Google APIs development environment (0.2.0)
[1] pry(main)> Google::BigQuery.connection
=> #<Google::BigQuery:0x007fa6c9cc3450 v2:[datasets,jobs,projects,tabledata,tables] {projectId:"your_project_id",datasetId:"your_dataset_id"}>

Testing

Run the following command for testing:

$ rake

You can also run a single test file:

$ ruby test/unit/test_google_apis.rb
