Google Cloud for Go
import "google.golang.org/cloud"
NOTE: These packages are experimental, and may occasionally make
backwards-incompatible changes.
NOTE: Github repo is a mirror of https://code.googlesource.com/gocloud.
Go packages for Google Cloud Platform services. Supported APIs are:
Experimental 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.
Documentation and examples are available at
https://godoc.org/google.golang.org/cloud
Authorization
By default, each API will use Google Application Default Credentials
for authorization credentials used in calling the API endpoints. This will allow your
application to run in many environments without requiring explicit configuration.
Manually-configured authorization can be achieved using the
golang.org/x/oauth2
package to
create an oauth2.TokenSource
. This token source can be passed to the NewClient
function for the relevant API using a
[cloud.WithTokenSource
][https://godoc.org/google.golang.org/cloud#WithTokenSource]
option.
Google Cloud Datastore
Google Cloud Datastore (docs) is a fully-
managed, schemaless database for storing non-relational data. Cloud Datastore
automatically scales with your users and supports ACID transactions, high availability
of reads and writes, strong consistency for reads and ancestor queries, and eventual
consistency for all other queries.
Follow the activation instructions to use the Google
Cloud Datastore API with your project.
https://godoc.org/google.golang.org/cloud/datastore
First create a datastore.Client
to use throughout your application:
client, err := datastore.NewClient(ctx, "my-project-id")
if err != nil {
log.Fatalln(err)
}
Then use that client to interact with the API:
type Post struct {
Title string
Body string `datastore:",noindex"`
PublishedAt time.Time
}
keys := []*datastore.Key{
datastore.NewKey(ctx, "Post", "post1", 0, nil),
datastore.NewKey(ctx, "Post", "post2", 0, 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)
}
Google Cloud Storage
Google Cloud Storage (docs) allows you to store
data on Google infrastructure with very high reliability, performance and availability,
and can be used to distribute large data objects to users via direct download.
https://godoc.org/google.golang.org/cloud/storage
First create a storage.Client
to use throughout your application:
client, err := storage.NewClient(ctx)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
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)
}
Google Cloud Pub/Sub
Google Cloud Pub/Sub (docs) allows you to connect
your services with reliable, many-to-many, asynchronous messaging hosted on Google's
infrastructure. Cloud Pub/Sub automatically scales as you need it and provides a foundation
for building your own robust, global services.
https://godoc.org/google.golang.org/cloud/pubsub
msgIDs, err := pubsub.Publish(ctx, "topic1", &pubsub.Message{
Data: []byte("hello world"),
})
if err != nil {
log.Println(err)
}
msgs, err := pubsub.Pull(ctx, "subscription1", 1)
if err != nil {
log.Println(err)
}
