Introduction

Google API tools consist of two tools:

  • The Google API Code Generator, which produces client code wrappers around GRPC APIs which can be enriched by manually edited code.
  • The Google API Code Synchronizer, which can merge updates in the generated code wrapper to an existing code wrapper which might have manual edits.

More Google API tools will be introduced in the future.

The Google API Code Generator

We currently support the generation of client code wrappers in seven languages: Java, Python, Go, C#, Ruby, Node.js, and PHP. There are two ways to generate client code wrappers:

  1. Invoking directly through a gradle task (see the build.gradle:runCodeGen task).
  2. Invoking a code generation pipeline through artman.

The Google API Code Synchronizer

The process currently hard-wires kdiff3 for merging and conflict resolution. kdiff3 runs in auto mode and will only pop up a UI if conflict resolution is not possible (note: X display needed in this case). There are two ways to invoke code synchronizer:

  1. Invoking directly through a gradle task (see the build.gradle:runSynchronizer task).
  2. Invoking a code generation pipeline which contains synchronization step through artman.
