Credential configuration​

The projectId corresponds to the project ID from the Google Developer's Console.

The credentials field of the JSON corresponds to a JSON key of the service account. This key is downloaded as a JSON file when you create it. It should be something like this:

{
  "type": "service_account",
  "project_id": "PROJECT_ID",
  "private_key_id": "KEY_ID",
  "private_key": "-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----\nPRIVATE_KEY\n-----END PRIVATE KEY-----\n",
  "client_email": "SERVICE_ACCOUNT_EMAIL",
  "client_id": "CLIENT_ID",
  "auth_uri": "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth",
  "token_uri": "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token",
  "auth_provider_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/certs",
  "client_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/robot/v1/metadata/x509/SERVICE_ACCOUNT_EMAIL"
}

If you don't have one, create a service account and then, a JSON key for that service account.

info

Ensure to grant permissions over the buckets to manage to this service account.

Here is an example of a filled credential configuration form in YepCode:

Integration​

New integration from credential
const googleStorageClient = yepcode.integration.googleStorage("credentialSlug");
New integration from plain authentication data
const { Storage } = require("@google-cloud/storage");

const googleStorageCredentials = {
  projectId: "YepCode",
  credentials: {
    type: "service_account",
    project_id: "yepcode",
    private_key_id: "XXXXX",
    private_key: "-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----\nx\n-----END PRIVATE KEY-----",
    client_email: "yepcode@example.org",
    client_id: "1234567890",
    auth_uri: "https://example.org",
    token_uri: "https://example.org",
    auth_provider_x509_cert_url: "https://example.org",
    client_x509_cert_url: "https://example.org",
  },
};

const googleStorage = new Storage(googleStorageCredentials);

Create a New Bucket​

Create a new bucket
  await googleStorageClient.createBucket(bucketName);

Create a Notification​

Create a notification
await googleStorageClient.bucket(bucketName).createNotification(notificationTopic);

Delete a Bucket​

Delete a bucket
await googleStorageClient.bucket(bucketName).delete();

Delete a notification​

Delete a notification
await googleStorageClient.bucket(bucketName).notification(notificationId).delete();

List Buckets​

List buckets
const [buckets] = await googleStorageClient.getBuckets();

buckets.forEach(bucket => {
  console.log(bucket.name);
});

List Notifications​

List notifications
const [notifications] = await googleStorageClient.bucket(bucketName).getNotifications();

notifications.forEach(notification => {
  console.log(notification.id);
});

Upload a File​

Upload a file
await googleStorageClient.bucket(bucketName).upload(filePath, {
  destination: destinationFileName,
});

Download a File​

Download a file
const options = {
  destination: destinationFileName,
};
await googleStorageClient.bucket(bucketName).file(fileName).download(options);

Delete a File​

Delete a file
await storage.bucket(bucketName).file(fileName).delete();
