Google Storage Transfer Service Client for Java
Java idiomatic client for Storage Transfer Service.
Quickstart
If you are using Maven, add this to your pom.xml file:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.google.cloud</groupId>
<artifactId>google-cloud-storage-transfer</artifactId>
<version>0.2.3</version>
</dependency>If you are using Gradle without BOM, add this to your dependencies
implementation 'com.google.cloud:google-cloud-storage-transfer:0.2.3'If you are using SBT, add this to your dependencies
libraryDependencies += "com.google.cloud" % "google-cloud-storage-transfer" % "0.2.3"Authentication
See the Authentication section in the base directory's README.
Authorization
The client application making API calls must be granted authorization scopes required for the desired Storage Transfer Service APIs, and the authenticated principal must have the IAM role(s) required to access GCP resources using the Storage Transfer Service API calls.
Getting Started
Prerequisites
You will need a Google Cloud Platform Console project with the Storage Transfer Service API enabled.
You will need to enable billing to use Google Storage Transfer Service.
Follow these instructions to get your project set up. You will also need to set up the local development environment by
installing the Google Cloud SDK and running the following commands in command line:
gcloud auth login and gcloud config set project [YOUR PROJECT ID].
Installation and setup
You'll need to obtain the google-cloud-storage-transfer library. See the Quickstart section
to add google-cloud-storage-transfer as a dependency in your code.
About Storage Transfer Service
Storage Transfer Service Secure, low-cost services for transferring data from cloud or on-premises sources.
See the Storage Transfer Service client library docs to learn how to
use this Storage Transfer Service Client Library.
Troubleshooting
To get help, follow the instructions in the shared Troubleshooting document.
Transport
Storage Transfer Service uses gRPC for the transport layer.
Supported Java Versions
Java 8 or above is required for using this client.
Google's Java client libraries,
Google Cloud Client Libraries
and
Google Cloud API Libraries,
follow the
Oracle Java SE support roadmap
(see the Oracle Java SE Product Releases section).
For new development
In general, new feature development occurs with support for the lowest Java
LTS version covered by Oracle's Premier Support (which typically lasts 5 years
from initial General Availability). If the minimum required JVM for a given
library is changed, it is accompanied by a semver major release.
Java 11 and (in September 2021) Java 17 are the best choices for new
development.
Keeping production systems current
Google tests its client libraries with all current LTS versions covered by
Oracle's Extended Support (which typically lasts 8 years from initial
General Availability).
Legacy support
Google's client libraries support legacy versions of Java runtimes with long
term stable libraries that don't receive feature updates on a best efforts basis
as it may not be possible to backport all patches.
Google provides updates on a best efforts basis to apps that continue to use
Java 7, though apps might need to upgrade to current versions of the library
that supports their JVM.
Where to find specific information
The latest versions and the supported Java versions are identified on
the individual GitHub repository github.com/GoogleAPIs/java-SERVICENAME
and on google-cloud-java.
Versioning
This library follows Semantic Versioning.
