Any update on this?

[loicmathieu]

No update, we didn't plan to support any Google Cloud services as it may be a huge task. Anyone how is interested should +1 on the issue description so I know that is a wanted feature.

Most Google Cloud Services works in the same way so I plan to create a section on the documentation explaining how someone can integrate them without needing and extension (it's mainly authentication and gRCP integration with Quarkus gRCP).

That would be very helpful. Thanks!

I've been using Cloud Tasks in my quarkus application for a while. I hope I didn't miss anything because it's been a while and hard to extract needed parts.

To make it work as native image I added following to pom.xml

        <dependency>
            <groupId>io.quarkiverse.googlecloudservices</groupId>
            <artifactId>quarkus-google-cloud-common</artifactId>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>io.quarkiverse.googlecloudservices</groupId>
            <artifactId>quarkus-google-cloud-common-grpc</artifactId>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.google.cloud</groupId>
            <artifactId>google-cloud-tasks</artifactId>
            <exclusions>
                <exclusion>
                    <groupId>commons-logging</groupId>
                    <artifactId>commons-logging</artifactId>
                </exclusion>
                <exclusion>
                    <groupId>javax.annotation</groupId>
                    <artifactId>javax.annotation-api</artifactId>
                </exclusion>
                <exclusion>
                    <groupId>org.checkerframework</groupId>
                    <artifactId>checker-qual</artifactId>
                </exclusion>
                <!-- We exclude the grpc-netty-shaded library as grpc-netty is included via
                quarkus-google-cloud-common-grpc and Quarkus includes the netty library -->
                <exclusion>
                    <groupId>io.grpc</groupId>
                    <artifactId>grpc-netty-shaded</artifactId>
                </exclusion>
                <exclusion>
                    <groupId>com.google.api</groupId>
                    <artifactId>gax-grpc</artifactId>
                </exclusion>
                <exclusion>
                    <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
                    <artifactId>animal-sniffer-annotations</artifactId>
                </exclusion>
            </exclusions>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>io.quarkus</groupId>
            <artifactId>quarkus-grpc-common</artifactId>
        </dependency>

And to initialize and authenticate I do following.

@Inject
GoogleCredentials googleCredentials;
    
    
CloudTasksSettings settings = CloudTasksSettings.newBuilder()                            
 .setCredentialsProvider(FixedCredentialsProvider.create(googleCredentials))
                                .build();
try (CloudTasksClient client = CloudTasksClient.create(settings)) {
   
  // Construct the fully qualified queue name.
  String queuePath = QueueName.of(gCloudProjectId, gCloudLocationId, 
  ct.getQueueName()).toString();
  OidcToken.Builder oidcTokenBuilder =
  OidcToken.newBuilder()
     .setServiceAccountEmail(gCloudServiceAccount)
     .setAudience(ct.getAudiance());
                                        
  Task.newBuilder()
     .setHttpRequest(HttpRequest.newBuilder()
                     .setBody(ByteString.copyFrom(ct.getBody(), Charset.defaultCharset()))
                      .putHeaders("Content-Type", "application/json")
                      .setUrl(ct.getUrl())
                       .setHttpMethod(ct.getMethod())
                       .setOidcToken(oidcTokenBuilder)
                       .build())
                       
  Task taskToCreate = taskBuilder.build();

  // Send create task request.
  Task task = client.createTask(queuePath, taskToCreate);
  System.out.println("Task created: " + task.getName());

}

Thanks @ayhanap these steps are the basic steps for supporting any Google Cloud services: declaring the dependency with exclusion, if gRCP is used: excluding the dependency and importing the Quarkuse one, injecting authentication and initiating a client. To make it looks more like an extension you can create a CDI producer for the client.

I still have plan to add a documentation page for it, I may borrow the code for your example ;)

I think you don't need to exclude

                <exclusion>
                    <groupId>com.google.api</groupId>
                    <artifactId>gax-grpc</artifactId>
                </exclusion>

And for checker-qual and animal-sniffer, excluding them should be only needed when the lib is integrated into a Quarkus extension.

[ayhanap]

I got inspired by existing code from other gcloud services, I just copied the storage one I guess :) Might be right about unnecessary exclusions, been a while don't remember if they caused any issues.

Feel free to use it as you like, it's just the sample code from https://cloud.google.com/tasks/docs/creating-http-target-tasks#java and some modifications for authentication.
