是否有独立 Python3 的谷歌云翻译示例？

Question

I am trying to figure out how to use google cloud translate in my own Python3 environment. I have completed the codelabs tutorial that shows me how to do it in the cloud shell, but I want to run it from my own environment. I can install the google-cloud-translate library of course but I have no idea how to set up authentication, which in the tutorial uses a bunch of cloud shell commands that (AFAIK) I can't run from my Linux shell.

I did get a copy of the key.json file created in that process, in hopes there is a way to use that for my standalone system. But after quite a bit of searching I've not found any instructions for setting up authentication using that file or otherwise. There is a guide for setting up a Python dev environment, but it says nothing about authentication.

Can anyone point me to a tutorial or worked example?

Answer 1

You can first install Cloud SDK , like someone on the comments said.

After that, to authenticate I would set up the GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS environment variable with the path to your service account key

export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="/path/to/my/service-account-key.json"

You can add it to your .bashrc if you don't want to run it each time you log in
