2.0.0 Migration Guide¶
The 2.0 release of the google-cloud-vision client is a significant upgrade based on a next-gen code generator, and includes substantial interface changes. Existing code written for earlier versions of this library will likely require updates to use this version. This document describes the changes that have been made, and what you need to do to update your usage.
If you experience issues or have questions, please file an issue.
Supported Python Versions¶
WARNING: Breaking change
The 2.0.0 release requires Python 3.6+.
Method Calls¶
WARNING: Breaking change
Methods expect request objects. We provide a script that will convert most common use cases.
Install the library with
libcst.
python3 -m pip install google-cloud-vision[libcst]
The script
fixup_vision_v1_keywords.pyis shipped with the library. It expects an input directory (with the code to convert) and an empty destination directory.
$ fixup_vision_v1_keywords.py --input-directory .samples/ --output-directory samples/
Before:
from google.cloud import vision_v1
client = vision_v1.ProductSearchClient()
product_set = client.get_product_set("name")
After:
from google.cloud import vision_v1
client = vision_v1.ProductSearchClient()
product_set = client.get_product_set(request={"name": "name"})
More Details¶
In google-cloud-vision<2.0.0, parameters required by the API were positional parameters and optional parameters were keyword parameters.
Before:
def create_product_set(
self,
parent,
product_set,
product_set_id=None,
retry=google.api_core.gapic_v1.method.DEFAULT,
timeout=google.api_core.gapic_v1.method.DEFAULT,
metadata=None,
):
In the 2.0.0 release, all methods have a single positional parameter request. Method docstrings indicate whether a parameter is required or optional.
Some methods have additional keyword only parameters. The available parameters depend on the google.api.method_signature annotation specified by the API producer.
After:
def create_product_set(
self,
request: product_search_service.CreateProductSetRequest = None,
*,
parent: str = None,
product_set: product_search_service.ProductSet = None,
product_set_id: str = None,
retry: retries.Retry = gapic_v1.method.DEFAULT,
timeout: float = None,
metadata: Sequence[Tuple[str, str]] = (),
) -> product_search_service.ProductSet:
NOTE: The
requestparameter and flattened keyword parameters for the API are mutually exclusive. Passing both will result in an error.
Both of these calls are valid:
response = client.create_product_set(
request={
"parent": parent,
"product_set_id": product_set_id,
"product_set": product_set
}
)
response = client.create_product_set(
parent=parent,
product_set_id=product_set_id,
product_set=product_set
)
This call is invalid because it mixes request with a keyword argument product_set. Executing this code
will result in an error.
response = client.create_product_set(
request={
"parent": parent,
"product_set_id": product_set_id
},
product_set=product_set
)
Enums and Types¶
WARNING: Breaking change
The submodules enums and types have been removed.
Before:
from google.cloud import vision_v1
likelihood = vision_v1.enums.Likelihood.UNKNOWN
request = vision_v1.types.GetProductSetRequest(name="name")
After:
from google.cloud import vision_v1
likelihood = vision_v1.Likelihood.UNKNOWN
request = vision_v1.GetProductSetRequest(name="name")
Location Path Helper Method¶
Location path helper method has been removed. Please construct the path manually.
project = "my-project"
location = "location"
location_path = f"projects/{project}/locations/{location}"
