# Google Chat code samples



This repository contains the code samples for

[Google Chat apps](https://developers.google.com/chat).

There are folders of samples dependent on language and platform. Generally

the Java and Python samples live in each respective directory, but JavaScript

has multiple form factors (client-side, server-side/Node.js, Google Apps

Script [also server side], and Cloud Functions [GCP or Firebase]).



Which JS platform you choose depends on the type of app application you're

using/writing. Apps Script features tighter integration with Google Workspace data and

applications, while Google Cloud Functions has a tighter integration with Google

Cloud Platform services and APIs. Finally, mobile apps or mobile web apps are

more likely to want to take advantage of Cloud Functions for Firebase. It is

also generally straightforward to port from one JS implementation to another,

for example, to Node.js.



In each folder, you can find a language-specific implementation of the

one or more of the following code samples:



  - **Basic app**: This app receives event notices and messages from Google

    Chat and responds synchronously with simple text responses. This sample

    demonstrates how to create an HTTP endpoint app using

    [Google App Engine](https://cloud.google.com/appengine/).

  - **Basic async app**: This app receives event notices and messages from

    Google Chat and responds asynchronously with simple text responses. The

    responses will appear in the same thread that raised the original event or

    message. This sample is an HTTP endpoint app built upon

    [Google App Engine](https://cloud.google.com/appengine/).

  - **Pub/Sub app**: This app uses

    [Google Cloud Pub/Sub](https://cloud.google.com/pubsub/) to receive messages

    from Google Chat. The app responds back to Google Chat asynchronously.

  - **Card app**: This app receives event notices and messages from Google

    Chat and responds synchronously with a

    [card-formatted](https://developers.google.com/chat/concepts)

    response. This sample is an HTTP endpoint app built upon

    [Google App Engine](https://cloud.google.com/appengine/).

  - **Vote app**: This app demonstrates updating interactive cards by providing

    a platform whereby users can vote on topics, such as who can do lunch today,

    who wants to play ball at lunch, etc. Samples can feature images or be

    text-only.



For additional details about how to set up and run each sample, consult the

README file included with the sample.



**Note**: The Google Chat application, and the developer platform, are only

available to Google Workspace accounts. You will not be able to develop or test a app

with an @gmail.com account.
