如何使用 Rails Secrets 存储 Google API 凭据？

Question

This question is similar to How can I authorize a Google Service Account without the default credentials file? but specifically about how to use Rails' built in secrets/credentials functionality.

I realise it needs to be JSON but when I store credentials in a private method and pass that method to json_key_io I get a NoMethodError :

def call
  auth = Google::Auth::ServiceAccountCredentials.make_creds(
    json_key_io: credentials,
    scope: Google::Apis::ClassroomV1::AUTH_CLASSROOM_ROSTERS
  )
end

private

  def credentials
    @credentials ||= {
      type: "service_account",
      project_id: Rails.application.credentials.google[:project_id],
      private_key_id: Rails.application.credentials.google[:private_key_id],
      private_key: Rails.application.credentials.google[:private_key],
      client_email: Rails.application.credentials.google[:client_email],
      client_id: Rails.application.credentials.google[:client_id],
      auth_uri: "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth",
      token_uri: "https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token",
      auth_provider_x509_cert_url: "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/certs",
      client_x509_cert_url: Rails.application.credentials.google[:client_x509_cert_url],
    }.to_json
  end

NoMethodError (undefined method ``read' for "{\"type\":\"service_acco...

Answer 1

The key thing I was missing (as pointed out by miggitymac in this answer ) is that the client is expecting an IO object (a file), not a string.

With the addition of StringIO.new , this now works as expected:

def call
  auth = Google::Auth::ServiceAccountCredentials.make_creds(
    json_key_io: StringIO.new(credentials),
    scope: Google::Apis::ClassroomV1::AUTH_CLASSROOM_ROSTERS
  )
end

private

  def credentials
    @credentials ||= {
      type: "service_account",
      project_id: Rails.application.credentials.google[:project_id],
      private_key_id: Rails.application.credentials.google[:private_key_id],
      private_key: Rails.application.credentials.google[:private_key],
      client_email: Rails.application.credentials.google[:client_email],
      client_id: Rails.application.credentials.google[:client_id],
      auth_uri: "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth",
      token_uri: "https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token",
      auth_provider_x509_cert_url: "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/certs",
      client_x509_cert_url: Rails.application.credentials.google[:client_x509_cert_url],
    }.to_json
  end
