Google Authentication Chef Cookbook
Module Description
This cookbook provides the resources to authenticate with Google Cloud Platform.
When executing operations on Google Cloud Platform, e.g. creating a virtual
machine, a SQL database, etc., you need to be authenticated to be able to carry
on with the request.
All Google Cloud Platform cookbooks use an unified authentication mechanism,
provided by this cookbook.
Example
gauth_credential 'mycred' do action :serviceaccount path '/home/nelsonjr/my_account.json' scopes [ 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/compute' ] end
Setup
To install this cookbook using knife
tool:
knife cookbook site install google-gauth
knife cookbook site download google-gauth
Note: Google Cloud Platform cookbooks that require authentication will
automatically install this cookbook, as it will be listed in their
dependencies.

About Service Accounts
This cookbook uses service accounts to authenticate with Google
Cloud Platform. Google Cloud Platform project administrators manage service
accounts. They can create, modify and delete accounts and grant account
specific privileges on the projects. Those privileges will be used by Chef to
carry on the operations on behalf of the user.
Getting a Service Account key
The provider uses the JSON version of the service account key file. When in the
IAM & Admin section of the Developer Console the
administrator can retrieve a key file. Select the JSON as the key format.
The file you download is the one provided in the path
property.
Providers
gauth_credential
provider
serviceaccount
[preferred]
This is the preferred method of specifying credentials, because it does not
rely on any pre-existing system configuration that Chef can't track. You'll
need a credential file, but you can easily manage that with afile do .. end
resource.-
defaultuseraccount
If you havegcloud
setup you can piggyback on the account
currently set as active for the user running Chef.Warning! Please be aware that the account is subject to whichever account is
set as active ongcloud
tool, so the results will not be always consistent
if they change under Chef by the user.
scopes
The scopes your authentication request will be limited to. When executing
actions against Google Cloud Platform you should choose the minimum amount of
privileges to carry on the operations to avoid accidentally affecting other
resources. For example if I want to manage virtual machines you should request
only "Compute R/W". That way you don't accidentally modify your DNS records.
Google's Chef cookbooks for Google Cloud Platform list the scopes you can use in
their Chef Supermarket documentation page. You can alternatively look at Google
Cloud Platform documentation for the product you're interacting with.

path of the service account file (in JSON format).
