API Client Generator for Python
===============================

|release level| |pypi| |versions|

A generator for protocol buffer described APIs for and in Python 3.

This is a generator for API client libraries for APIs
specified by `protocol buffers`_, such as those inside Google.
It takes a protocol buffer (with particular annotations) and uses it
to generate a client library.

.. _protocol buffers: https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/

Purpose
-------

This library replaces the `monolithic generator`_
with some improvements:

- An explicit normalized format for specifying APIs.
- Light weight, in-language code generators.

.. _monolithic generator: https://github.com/googleapis/gapic-generator

Bazel
-------------
This generator can be called from Bazel, which is a recommended way of using it inside a continuous integration build or any other automated pipeline.

Clone the googleapis repository
$ git clone https://github.com/googleapis/googleapis.git

Create the targets
------------------
You need to add the following targets to your BUILD.bazel file.

.. code-block:: c

load(
"@gapic_generator_python//rules_python_gapic:py_gapic.bzl",
"py_gapic_library"
)

load(
"@gapic_generator_python//rules_python_gapic:py_gapic_pkg.bzl",
"py_gapic_assembly_pkg"
)

py_gapic_library(
name = "documentai_py_gapic",
srcs = [":documentai_proto"],
)

py_gapic_assembly_pkg(
name = "documentai-v1beta2-py",
deps = [
":documentai_py_gapic",
],
)

Compiling an API
----------------

Using Bazel:

.. code-block:: c

bazel build //google/cloud/documentai/v1beta2:documentai-v1beta2-py

Using Protoc:

.. code-block:: c

# This is assumed to be in the `googleapis` project root.
$ protoc google/cloud/vision/v1/*.proto \
--python_gapic_out=/dest/
