Overview

Ruby Client for Google Cloud Vision API (Alpha)

Google Cloud Vision API: Integrates Google Vision features, including image labeling, face, logo, and landmark detection, optical character recognition (OCR), and detection of explicit content, into applications.

Quick Start

In order to use this library, you first need to go through the following steps:

  1. Select or create a Cloud Platform project.
  2. Enable the Google Cloud Vision API.
  3. Setup Authentication.

Installation

$ gem install google-cloud-vision

Preview

ImageAnnotatorClient

require "google/cloud/vision"

image_annotator_client = Google::Cloud::Vision.new
gcs_image_uri = "gs://gapic-toolkit/President_Barack_Obama.jpg"
source = { gcs_image_uri: gcs_image_uri }
image = { source: source }
type = :FACE_DETECTION
features_element = { type: type }
features = [features_element]
requests_element = { image: image, features: features }
requests = [requests_element]
response = image_annotator_client.batch_annotate_images(requests)

.configure {|Google::Cloud.configure.vision| ... } ⇒ Google::Cloud::Config

Configure the Google Cloud Vision library.

The following Vision configuration parameters are supported:

  • project_id - (String) Identifier for a Vision project. (The parameter project is considered deprecated, but may also be used.)
  • credentials - (String, Hash, Google::Auth::Credentials) The path to the keyfile as a String, the contents of the keyfile as a Hash, or a Google::Auth::Credentials object. (See Credentials) (The parameter keyfile is considered deprecated, but may also be used.)
  • scope - (String, Array) The OAuth 2.0 scopes controlling the set of resources and operations that the connection can access.
  • timeout - (Integer) Default timeout to use in requests.
  • client_config - (Hash) A hash of values to override the default behavior of the API client.
  • default_max_faces - (Integer) The default max results to return for facial detection requests. See default_max_faces=.
  • default_max_landmarks - (Integer) The default max results to return for landmark detection requests. See default_max_landmarks=.
  • default_max_logos - (Integer) The default max results to return for logo detection requests. See default_max_logos=.
  • default_max_labels - (Integer) The default max results to return for label detection requests. See default_max_labels=.
  • default_max_crop_hints - (Integer) The default max results to return for crop hints detection requests. See default_max_crop_hints=.
  • default_max_web - (Integer) The default max results to return for web detection requests. See default_max_faces=.

.new(project_id: nil, credentials: nil, scope: nil, timeout: nil, client_config: nil, project: nil, keyfile: nil) ⇒ Google::Cloud::Vision::Project

Creates a new object for connecting to the Vision service. Each call creates a new connection.

Examples:

require "google/cloud/vision"

vision = Google::Cloud::Vision.new

image = vision.image "path/to/landmark.jpg"

landmark = image.landmark
landmark.description #=> "Mount Rushmore"

Parameters:

  • project_id (String) —

    Project identifier for the Vision service you are connecting to. If not present, the default project for the credentials is used.

  • credentials (String, Hash, Google::Auth::Credentials) —

    The path to the keyfile as a String, the contents of the keyfile as a Hash, or a Google::Auth::Credentials object. (See Credentials)

  • scope (String, Array<String>) —

    The OAuth 2.0 scopes controlling the set of resources and operations that the connection can access. See Using OAuth 2.0 to Access Google APIs.

    The default scope is:

    • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform
  • timeout (Integer) —

    Default timeout to use in requests. Optional.

  • client_config (Hash) —

    A hash of values to override the default behavior of the API client. Optional.

  • project (String) —

    Alias for the project_id argument. Deprecated.

  • keyfile (String) —

    Alias for the credentials argument. Deprecated.

Returns:

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)
