Service for making recommendation prediction.

Instantiates the prediction service async client.

Parameters
  • credentials (Optional[google.auth.credentials.Credentials]) – The authorization credentials to attach to requests. These credentials identify the application to the service; if none are specified, the client will attempt to ascertain the credentials from the environment.

  • transport (Optional[Union[str,PredictionServiceTransport,Callable[..., PredictionServiceTransport]]]) – The transport to use, or a Callable that constructs and returns a new transport to use. If a Callable is given, it will be called with the same set of initialization arguments as used in the PredictionServiceTransport constructor. If set to None, a transport is chosen automatically.

  • client_options (Optional[Union[google.api_core.client_options.ClientOptions, dict]]) –

    Custom options for the client.

    1. The api_endpoint property can be used to override the default endpoint provided by the client when transport is not explicitly provided. Only if this property is not set and transport was not explicitly provided, the endpoint is determined by the GOOGLE_API_USE_MTLS_ENDPOINT environment variable, which have one of the following values: “always” (always use the default mTLS endpoint), “never” (always use the default regular endpoint) and “auto” (auto-switch to the default mTLS endpoint if client certificate is present; this is the default value).

    2. If the GOOGLE_API_USE_CLIENT_CERTIFICATE environment variable is “true”, then the client_cert_source property can be used to provide a client certificate for mTLS transport. If not provided, the default SSL client certificate will be used if present. If GOOGLE_API_USE_CLIENT_CERTIFICATE is “false” or not set, no client certificate will be used.

    3. The universe_domain property can be used to override the default “googleapis.com” universe. Note that api_endpoint property still takes precedence; and universe_domain is currently not supported for mTLS.

  • client_info (google.api_core.gapic_v1.client_info.ClientInfo) – The client info used to send a user-agent string along with API requests. If None, then default info will be used. Generally, you only need to set this if you’re developing your own client library.

Raises

google.auth.exceptions.MutualTlsChannelError – If mutual TLS transport creation failed for any reason.

Parameters
  • request (Optional[Union[google.cloud.recommendationengine_v1beta1.types.PredictRequest, dict]]) – The request object. Request message for Predict method.

  • name (str) –

    Required. Full resource name of the format: {name=projects/*/locations/global/catalogs/default_catalog/eventStores/default_event_store/placements/*} The id of the recommendation engine placement. This id is used to identify the set of models that will be used to make the prediction.

    We currently support three placements with the following IDs by default:

    • shopping_cart: Predicts items frequently bought together with one or more catalog items in the same shopping session. Commonly displayed after add-to-cart events, on product detail pages, or on the shopping cart page.

    • home_page: Predicts the next product that a user will most likely engage with or purchase based on the shopping or viewing history of the specified userId or visitorId. For example - Recommendations for you.

    • product_detail: Predicts the next product that a user will most likely engage with or purchase. The prediction is based on the shopping or viewing history of the specified userId or visitorId and its relevance to a specified CatalogItem. Typically used on product detail pages. For example - More items like this.

    • recently_viewed_default: Returns up to 75 items recently viewed by the specified userId or visitorId, most recent ones first. Returns nothing if neither of them has viewed any items yet. For example - Recently viewed.

    The full list of available placements can be seen at https://console.cloud.google.com/recommendation/datafeeds/default_catalog/dashboard

    This corresponds to the name field on the request instance; if request is provided, this should not be set.

  • user_event (google.cloud.recommendationengine_v1beta1.types.UserEvent) –

    Required. Context about the user, what they are looking at and what action they took to trigger the predict request. Note that this user event detail won’t be ingested to userEvent logs. Thus, a separate userEvent write request is required for event logging.

    This corresponds to the user_event field on the request instance; if request is provided, this should not be set.

  • retry (google.api_core.retry_async.AsyncRetry) – Designation of what errors, if any, should be retried.

  • timeout (float) – The timeout for this request.

  • metadata (Sequence[Tuple[str, str]]) – Strings which should be sent along with the request as metadata.

Returns

Response message for predict method.

Iterating over this object will yield results and resolve additional pages automatically.

    3. The universe_domain property can be used to override the default “googleapis.com” universe. Note that the api_endpoint property still takes precedence; and universe_domain is currently not supported for mTLS.

  • client_info (google.api_core.gapic_v1.client_info.ClientInfo) – The client info used to send a user-agent string along with API requests. If None, then default info will be used. Generally, you only need to set this if you’re developing your own client library.

Raises

google.auth.exceptions.MutualTLSChannelError – If mutual TLS transport creation failed for any reason.

__exit__(type, value, traceback)[source]

Releases underlying transport’s resources.

Warning

ONLY use as a context manager if the transport is NOT shared with other clients! Exiting the with block will CLOSE the transport and may cause errors in other clients!

A pager for iterating through predict requests.

This class thinly wraps an initial google.cloud.recommendationengine_v1beta1.types.PredictResponse object, and provides an __aiter__ method to iterate through its results field.

If there are more pages, the __aiter__ method will make additional Predict requests and continue to iterate through the results field on the corresponding responses.

All the usual google.cloud.recommendationengine_v1beta1.types.PredictResponse attributes are available on the pager. If multiple requests are made, only the most recent response is retained, and thus used for attribute lookup.

Instantiates the pager.
