google-cloud-platform New Project with Cloud Resource Manager API Client for .NET

We will use Google API Client Libraries for .NET for this sample.

There are other libraries. Please see Google Client Libraries Explained for details.

We will use the Cloud Resource Manager API for Creating and Managing Projects.

Let's get started.

Putting it all together...

You should have two files. The first file is either called packages.config or project.json.

Let's name the second file Program.cs. All the code that was included in the sections above may be pasted into a single main method:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

using Google.Apis.Auth.OAuth2;
using Google.Apis.CloudResourceManager.v1;
using Google.Apis.Services;

using Data = Google.Apis.CloudResourceManager.v1.Data;

namespace OurFirstProject
{
    public class Program
    {
        private const string projectId = [YOUR-PROJECT-ID];
        private const string applicationName = "Test";

        public static void Main(string[] args)
        {

            var scopes = new String[] {
                CloudResourceManagerService.Scope.CloudPlatform
            };

            GoogleCredential credential = Task.Run(
                () => GoogleCredential.GetApplicationDefaultAsync()
            ).Result;

            if (credential.IsCreateScopedRequired)
            {
                credential = credential.CreateScoped(scopes);
            }

            CloudResourceManagerService service = new CloudResourceManagerService(
                new BaseClientService.Initializer()
                {
                    HttpClientInitializer = credential,
                    ApplicationName = applicationName
                }
            );

            Console.WriteLine("1. Create Project");
            Data.Operation operation1 = service.Projects.Create(
                new Data.Project()
                {
                    ProjectId = projectId,
                }
            ).Execute();

            Console.Write("2. Awaiting Operation Completion");
            Data.Operation operation2;
            do
            {
                operation2 = service.Operations.Get(operation1.Name).Execute();
                Console.WriteLine(operation2.Done.ToString());
                System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000);
            } while (operation2.Done != true);

            Console.WriteLine();
            Console.WriteLine("Enter to continue");
            Console.ReadLine();

            Console.WriteLine("3. Deleting Project");
            var operation3 = service.Projects.Delete(projectId).Execute();
        }
    }
}

If you're using Windows and Visual Studio, "Start"

If you're using Linux, you should first restore the packages, then run the app

dotnet restore
dotnet run

The output should be similar to:

Compiling Projects for .NETCoreApp,Version=v1.1

Compilation succeeded.
    0 Warning(s)
    0 Error(s)

1. Create Project

2. Awaiting Operation Completion



True

Enter to continue

3. Deleting Project

The "Awaiting" step will contain blank lines (hopefully) ending in "True".
