This page shows how to get started with the Cloud Client Libraries for the
Eventarc API. Client libraries make it easier to access
Google Cloud APIs from a supported language. Although you can use
Google Cloud APIs directly by making raw requests to the server, client
libraries provide simplifications that significantly reduce the amount of code
you need to write.
Read more about the Cloud Client Libraries
and the older Google API Client Libraries in
Client libraries explained.
To authenticate calls to Google Cloud APIs, client libraries support
Application Default Credentials (ADC);
the libraries look for credentials in a set of defined locations and use those credentials
to authenticate requests to the API. With ADC, you can make
credentials available to your application in a variety of environments, such as local
development or production, without needing to modify your application code.
For production environments, the way you set up ADC depends on the service
and context. For more information, see Set up Application Default Credentials.
For a local development environment, you can set up ADC with the credentials
that are associated with your Google Account:
Install the Google Cloud CLI.
After installation,
initialize the Google Cloud CLI by running the following command:
// Imports the Google Cloud client library// remove this line after package is releasedconst{EventarcClient}=require('@google-cloud/eventarc');// TODO: replace with your prefered project ID.// const projectId = 'my-project'// Creates a clientconstclient=newEventarcClient();asyncfunctiondoSomething(){forawait(consttriggerofawaitclient.listTriggersAsync({parent:client.locationPath(projectId,'us-central1'),})){console.info(trigger.name);}}doSomething();
