# 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.

## 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.dev/ruby/google-cloud-kms/latest/file.AUTHENTICATION.html)

### 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.

## 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.dev/ruby/google-cloud-logging/latest)
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.
