Python Client for API Gateway¶
API Gateway: enables you to provide secure access to your backend services through a well-defined REST API that is consistent across all of your services, regardless of the service implementation. Clients consume your REST APIS to implement standalone apps for a mobile device or tablet, through apps running in a browser, or through any other type of app that can make a request to an HTTP endpoint.
Quick Start¶
In order to use this library, you first need to go through the following steps:
Installation¶
Install this library in a virtual environment using venv. venv is a tool that creates isolated Python environments. These isolated environments can have separate versions of Python packages, which allows you to isolate one project’s dependencies from the dependencies of other projects.
With venv, it’s possible to install this library without needing system install permissions, and without clashing with the installed system dependencies.
Code samples and snippets¶
Code samples and snippets live in the samples/ folder.
Supported Python Versions¶
Our client libraries are compatible with all current active and maintenance versions of Python.
Python >= 3.7
Unsupported Python Versions¶
Python <= 3.6
If you are using an end-of-life version of Python, we recommend that you update as soon as possible to an actively supported version.
Mac/Linux¶
python3 -m venv <your-env>
source <your-env>/bin/activate
pip install google-cloud-api-gateway
Windows¶
py -m venv <your-env>
.\<your-env>\Scripts\activate
pip install google-cloud-api-gateway
Next Steps¶
Read the Client Library Documentation for API Gateway to see other available methods on the client.
Read the API Gateway Product documentation to learn more about the product and see How-to Guides.

Note
Because this client uses grpc
library, it is safe to
share instances across threads. In multiprocessing scenarios, the best
practice is to create client instances after the invocation of
os.fork()
by multiprocessing.pool.Pool
or
multiprocessing.Process
.
