Module client (1.7.2)

Base classes for client used to interact with Google Cloud APIs.

Classes

Client

  Client 
 ( 
 credentials 
 = 
 None 
 , 
 _http 
 = 
 None 
 , 
 client_options 
 = 
 None 
 )

Client to bundle configuration needed for API requests.

Stores credentials and an HTTP object so that subclasses can pass them along to a connection class.

If no value is passed in for _http , a requests.Session object will be created and authorized with the credentials . If not, the credentials and _http need not be related.

Callers and subclasses may seek to use the private key from credentials to sign data.

Parameters

Name	Description
credentials	`google.auth.credentials.Credentials` (Optional) The OAuth2 Credentials to use for this client. If not passed (and if no `_http` object is passed), falls back to the default inferred from the environment.
client_options	`google.api_core.client_options.ClientOptions` (Optional) Custom options for the client.
_http	`requests.Session` (Optional) HTTP object to make requests. Can be any object that defines `request()` with the same interface as `requests.Session.request` . If not passed, an `_http` object is created that is bound to the `credentials` for the current object. This parameter should be considered private, and could change in the future.

Exceptions

Type	Description
google.auth.exceptions.DefaultCredentialsError	Raised if ``credentials`` is not specified and the library fails to acquire default credentials.
