Google API Client for Elixir

Elixir library for accessing Google APIs.

Only the following APIs are supported:

• Analytics (partial)
• Knowledge Graph Search API
• Maps Time Zone API
• Places Autocomplete
• Nearby Places Search

PRs are welcome for more APIs.

Installation

1. Add google_api_client to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

  def deps do
    [{:google_api_client, "~> 1.1"}]
  end

You will need a Google Developers Console project.

1. Go to the Google Developers Console.
2. Click Create Project, enter a name, and click Create.
3. Once inside your project, enable access to the Google APIs you want this project to have access to (Library -> Search -> Enable).

For key based requests:

1. Create Credentials (API Key)
2. Add the following to your Elixir app's configuration:

  config :google_api_client,
    api_key: "Your API key"

For Ouath based requests:

1. Implement oauth to obtain a user's token (see: https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/OAuth2WebServer)
2. Pass the access token to methods which require oauth
