Re: [google-appengine] Google Translate API & Permissions

[wesley chun]

@Joshua: your inquiry inspired me to do some research into this issue over
the past few months resulting in the following:

1. *Use Cloud client libraries:* yep, your experience was not fun for any
developer looking to use a Cloud API (whether App Engine or a simple
cmd-line script). One solution is to avoid the Google APIs client library
 and use the Google Cloud
client libraries 
instead, and in your case just the one for Cloud Translation
(basic/v2
 or
advanced/v3
).
(I'm also working on a blog post to outline the differences between
these *platform
vs. product* client libraries, so stay tuned for that.) With the Cloud
Translation client library (which hides a lot of low-level details), your
code sample can be as simple as:

from __future__ import print_function
import google.auth
from google.cloud import translate

TRANSLATE = translate.TranslationServiceClient()
_, PROJECT_ID = google.auth.default()
PARENT = 'projects/{}'.format(PROJECT_ID)
TARGET_LANG = 'es'
TEXT = 'Hello world'
DATA = {
'parent': PARENT,
'contents': [TEXT],
'target_language_code': TARGET_LANG,
}
try:# Python 3/advanced/v3
rsp = TRANSLATE.translate_text(request=DATA)
except TypeError:   # Python 2/basic/v2
rsp = TRANSLATE.translate_text(**DATA)
print(TEXT, '=', rsp.translations[0].translated_text)

It works in Python 2 and 3 without any modification:

$ python2 translate_demo2.py
Hello world = Hola Mundo
$ python3 translate_demo2.py
Hello world = Hola Mundo

You should be able to just drop something like this right into your App
Engine code (plus the necessary stuff in app.yaml and requirements.txt).
App Engine comes with a default service account
,
so you don't need to mess with all you did unless you need to (create a
separate service account and public/private key-pair) for other reasons. To
run this script *locally* (as I did above), you *do* need to do that
(create a service acct & keypair, download the JSON credentials file to
your local system, then point GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS to it), but
not on App Engine (nor Cloud Functions nor Cloud Run) as *all 3* have
default service accounts.

2. *Sample app:* I created a simple Python 2 GAE app that uses that Cloud
Translation code to get an idea of what you went through and discovered it
wasn't that bad if the product client library is used. Then I wanted to see
how challenging it would be to port it to Python 3 (since you got to at
some point) as well as running it locally. Then I thought, "Why not try to
throw the app into a Docker container for Cloud Run?" *Bottom-line*: today
I pushed to GitHub this "nebulous" sample app
 that
can be deployed (at least) 8 different ways w/just minor config changes.
Eh, I'll write up a blog post on this one too when I get a chance.

I know the challenges weren't fun to deal with, but I hope these can help
you and other developers!

Re: [google-appengine] Re: Max 10,000 file limit is not suitable for modern full featured wordpress site or any PHP app

These are plugins which are in PHP not static files.
We are using a paid account.

 Hello Henry,

 Looking into your issue report, it seems your issue is not related to
 the App Engine deployment quota and is related to the Blobstore
 . So,
 you may consider the maximum number of files in a single form POST which
 the limit is 500. I have reopened your issue tracker ticket for further
 investigation and you can continue with it.
