Set Up

1. Set up your Java Development Environment

2. Clone this repository:

    git clone https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/java-docs-samples.git
   

3. Obtain authentication credentials.

   Create local credentials by running the following command and following the oauth2 flow (read more about the command here):

    gcloud auth application-default login
   

   Or manually set the GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS environment variable to point to a service account key JSON file path.

   Learn more at Setting Up Authentication for Server to Server Production Applications.

   Note: Application Default Credentials is able to implicitly find the credentials as long as the application is running on Compute Engine, Kubernetes Engine, App Engine, or Cloud Functions.

Supported Java runtimes

Every submitted change has to pass all checks that run on the testing environments with Java 11 and Java 17 runtimes before merging the change to the main branch. We run periodic checks on the environments with Java 8 and Java 21 runtimes but we don't enforce passing these tests at the moment. Because Java 8 is a supported Java runtime in Google Cloud, please configure to build your code sample with Java 8. In exceptional cases, configure to build your code sample using Java 11.
