Getting Started with Google Cloud Authentication

See the documentation for more information about authenticating for Google Cloud APIs.

Quickstart

Install Maven.

Build your project with:

mvn clean package -DskipTests

You can then run a given ClassName via:

mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass=com.example.storage.ClassName \
    -DpropertyName=propertyValue \
	-Dexec.args="any arguments to the app"

Listing buckets with default credentials

mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass=com.google.cloud.auth.samples.AuthExample

Listing buckets with credentials in json file

mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass=com.google.cloud.auth.samples.AuthExample
    -Dexec.args="explicit [path-to-credentials-json]"

Listing buckets while running on a Google Compute Engine instance

mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass=com.google.cloud.auth.samples.AuthExample
    -Dexec.args="compute"
