# Ruby Client for Cloud Key Management Service (KMS) API ([GA](https://github.com/googleapis/google-cloud-ruby#versioning)) [Cloud Key Management Service (KMS) API][Product Documentation]: Manages keys and performs cryptographic operations in a central cloud service, for direct use by other cloud resources and applications. - [Client Library Documentation][] - [Product Documentation][] ## Quick Start In order to use this library, you first need to go through the following steps: 1. [Select or create a Cloud Platform project.](https://console.cloud.google.com/project) 2. [Enable billing for your project.](https://cloud.google.com/billing/docs/how-to/modify-project#enable_billing_for_a_project) 3. [Enable the Cloud Key Management Service (KMS) API.](https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/library/cloudkms.googleapis.com) 4. [Setup Authentication.](https://googleapis.github.io/google-cloud-ruby/#/docs/google-cloud/master/guides/authentication) ### Installation ``` $ gem install google-cloud-kms ``` ### Example ```ruby require "google/cloud/kms" # Create a client for a project and given credentials kms = Google::Cloud::Kms.new credentials: "/path/to/keyfile.json" # Where to create key rings key_ring_parent = kms.class.location_path "my-project", "us-central1" # Create a new key ring key_ring = kms.create_key_ring key_ring_parent, "my-ring", {} puts "Created at #{Time.new key_ring.create_time.seconds}" # Iterate over created key rings kms.list_key_rings(key_ring_parent).each do |key_ring| puts "Found ring called #{key_ring.name}" end ``` ### Next Steps - Read the [Client Library Documentation][] for Cloud Key Management Service (KMS) API to see other available methods on the client. - Read the [Cloud Key Management Service (KMS) API Product documentation][Product Documentation] to learn more about the product and see How-to Guides. - View this [repository's main README](https://github.com/googleapis/google-cloud-ruby/blob/master/README.md) to see the full list of Cloud APIs that we cover. [Client Library Documentation]: https://googleapis.github.io/google-cloud-ruby/#/docs/google-cloud-kms/latest/google/cloud/kms/v1 [Product Documentation]: https://cloud.google.com/kms ## Enabling Logging To enable logging for this library, set the logger for the underlying [gRPC](https://github.com/grpc/grpc/tree/master/src/ruby) library. The logger that you set may be a Ruby stdlib [`Logger`](https://ruby-doc.org/stdlib-2.5.0/libdoc/logger/rdoc/Logger.html) as shown below, or a [`Google::Cloud::Logging::Logger`](https://googleapis.github.io/google-cloud-ruby/#/docs/google-cloud-logging/latest/google/cloud/logging/logger) that will write logs to [Stackdriver Logging](https://cloud.google.com/logging/). See [grpc/logconfig.rb](https://github.com/grpc/grpc/blob/master/src/ruby/lib/grpc/logconfig.rb) and the gRPC [spec_helper.rb](https://github.com/grpc/grpc/blob/master/src/ruby/spec/spec_helper.rb) for additional information. Configuring a Ruby stdlib logger: ```ruby require "logger" module MyLogger LOGGER = Logger.new $stderr, level: Logger::WARN def logger LOGGER end end # Define a gRPC module-level logger method before grpc/logconfig.rb loads. module GRPC extend MyLogger end ``` ## Supported Ruby Versions This library is supported on Ruby 2.3+. Google provides official support for Ruby versions that are actively supported by Ruby Core—that is, Ruby versions that are either in normal maintenance or in security maintenance, and not end of life. Currently, this means Ruby 2.3 and later. Older versions of Ruby _may_ still work, but are unsupported and not recommended. See https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/branches/ for details about the Ruby support schedule.
