66
|

2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
|
|
67
|
+
this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
|
|
68
|
+
worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
|
|
69
|
+
copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,
|
|
70
|
+
publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the
|
|
71
|
+
Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
|
|
72
|
+
|
|
73
|
+
3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
|
|
74
|
+
this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
|
|
75
|
+
worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
|
|
76
|
+
(except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,
|
|
77
|
+
use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,
|
|
78
|
+
where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable
|
|
79
|
+
by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
|
|
80
|
+
Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
|
|
81
|
+
with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
|
|
82
|
+
institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
|
|
83
|
+
cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
|
|
84
|
+
or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
|
|
85
|
+
or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
|
|
86
|
+
granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
|
|
87
|
+
as of the date such litigation is filed.
|
|
88
|
+
|
|
89
|
+
4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
|
|
90
|
+
Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
|
|
91
|
+
modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
|
|
92
|
+
meet the following conditions:
|
|
93
|
+
|
|
94
|
+
(a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
|
|
95
|
+
Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
|
|
96
|
+
|
|
97
|
+
(b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
|
|
98
|
+
stating that You changed the files; and
|
|
99
|
+
|
|
100
|
+
(c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
|
|
101
|
+
that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
|
|
102
|
+
attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
|
|
103
|
+
excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
|
|
104
|
+
the Derivative Works; and
|
|
105
|
+
|
|
106
|
+
(d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
|
|
107
|
+
distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
|
|
108
|
+
include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
|
|
109
|
+
within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
|
|
110
|
+
pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
|
|
111
|
+
of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
|
|
112
|
+
as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
|
|
113
|
+
documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
|
|
114
|
+
within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
|
|
115
|
+
wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
|
|
116
|
+
of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
|
|
117
|
+
do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
|
|
118
|
+
notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
|
|
119
|

|

## Which client should I use?
|
|
84
|
+
|
|
85
|
+
Most modern Ruby client libraries for Google APIs come in two flavors: the main
|
|
86
|
+
client library with a name such as `google-cloud-kms`,
|
|
87
|
+
and lower-level _versioned_ client libraries with names such as
|
|
88
|
+
`google-cloud-kms-v1`.
|
|
89
|
+
_In most cases, you should install the main client._
|
|
90
|
+
|
|
91
|
+
### What's the difference between the main client and a versioned client?
|
|
92
|
+
|
|
93
|
+
A _versioned client_ provides a basic set of data types and client classes for
|
|
94
|
+
a _single version_ of a specific service. (That is, for a service with multiple
|
|
95
|
+
versions, there might be a separate versioned client for each service version.)
|
|
96
|
+
Most versioned clients are written and maintained by a code generator.
|
|
97
|
+
|
|
98
|
+
The _main client_ is designed to provide you with the _recommended_ client
|
|
99
|
+
interfaces for the service. There will be only one main client for any given
|
|
100
|
+
service, even a service with multiple versions. The main client includes
|
|
101
|
+
factory methods for constructing the client objects we recommend for most
|
|
102
|
+
users. In some cases, those will be classes provided by an underlying versioned
|
|
103
|
+
client; in other cases, they will be handwritten higher-level client objects
|
|
104
|
+
with additional capabilities, convenience methods, or best practices built in.
|
|
105
|
+
Generally, the main client will default to a recommended service version,
|
|
106
|
+
although in some cases you can override this if you need to talk to a specific
|
|
107
|
+
service version.
|
|
108
|
+
|
|
109
|
+
### Why would I want to use the main client?
|
|
110
|
+
|
|
111
|
+
We recommend that most users install the main client gem for a service. You can
|
|
112
|
+
identify this gem as the one _without_ a version in its name, e.g.
|
|
113
|
+
`google-cloud-kms`.
|
|
114
|
+
The main client is recommended because it will embody the best practices for
|
|
115
|
+
accessing the service, and may also provide more convenient interfaces or
|
|
116
|
+
tighter integration into frameworks and third-party libraries. In addition, the
|
|
117
|
+
documentation and samples published by Google will generally demonstrate use of
|
|
118
|
+
the main client.
|
|
119
|
+
|
|
120
|
+
### Why would I want to use a versioned client?
|
|
121
|
+
|
|
122
|
+
You can use a versioned client if you are content with a possibly lower-level
|
|
123
|
+
class interface, you explicitly want to avoid features provided by the main
|
|
124
|
+
client, or you want to access a specific service version not be covered by the
|
|
125
|
+
main client. You can identify versioned client gems because the service version
|
|
126
|
+
is part of the name, e.g. `google-cloud-kms-v1`.
|
|
127
|
+
|
|
128
|
+
### What about the google-apis-<name> clients?
|
|
129
|
+
|
|
130
|
+
Client library gems with names that begin with `google-apis-` are based on an
|
|
131
|
+
older code generation technology. They talk to a REST/JSON backend (whereas
|
|
132
|
+
most modern clients talk to a [gRPC](https://grpc.io/) backend) and they may
|
|
133
|
+
not offer the same performance, features, and ease of use provided by more
|
|
134
|
+
modern clients.
|
|
135
|
+
|
|
136
|
+
The `google-apis-` clients have wide coverage across Google services, so you
|
|
137
|
+
might need to use one if there is no modern client available for the service.
|
|
138
|
+
However, if a modern client is available, we generally recommend it over the
|
|
139
|
+
older `google-apis-` clients.
