Google Cloud Storage: Node.js Client

Node.js idiomatic client for Cloud Storage.

Cloud Storage allows world-wide storage and retrieval of any amount of data at any time. You can use Google Cloud Storage for a range of scenarios including serving website content, storing data for archival and disaster recovery, or distributing large data objects to users via direct download.

Quickstart

Before you begin

Select or create a Cloud Platform project.
Enable billing for your project.
Enable the Google Cloud Storage API.
Set up authentication with a service account so you can access the API from your local workstation.

Installing the client library

npm install @google-cloud/storage

Using the client library

  // Imports the Google Cloud client library
  const {Storage} = require('@google-cloud/storage');

  // Creates a client
  const storage = new Storage();

  /**
   * TODO(developer): Uncomment these variables before running the sample.
   */
  // const bucketName = 'bucket-name';

  async function createBucket() {
    // Creates the new bucket
    await storage.createBucket(bucketName);
    console.log(`Bucket ${bucketName} created.`);
  }

  createBucket();

Versioning

This library follows Semantic Versioning.

This library is considered to be General Availability (GA). This means it is stable; the code surface will not change in backwards-incompatible ways unless absolutely necessary (e.g. because of critical security issues) or with an extensive deprecation period. Issues and requests against GA libraries are addressed with the highest priority.
