Chris Riccomini commented on AIRFLOW-15:
----------------------------------------
I'm going to break this ticket in two:
# Remove old GCSHook and all usage of gcloud.
# Update the google-api-python-client code to use a [nice
clean|https://github.com/airbnb/airflow/pull/1119/files#diff-948e87b4f8f644b3ad8c7950958df033R2074]
form the way that GCSHook does (that takes fields for project, key path, etc).
> Remove GCloud from Airflow

> Key: AIRFLOW-15
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-15
> Project: Apache Airflow
> Issue Type: Task
> Reporter: Chris Riccomini
> Assignee: Chris Riccomini
>
> After speaking with Google, there was some concern about using the
> [gcloud-python|https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/gcloud-python] library
> for Airflow. There are several concerns:
> # It's not clear (even to people at Google) what this library is, who owns
> it, etc.
> # It does not support all services (the way
> [google-api-python-client|https://github.com/google/google-api-python-client]
> does).
> # There are compatibility issues between google-api-python-client and
> gcloudpython.
> We currently support both, after libraries depending on which package you you
> install: {{airfow[gcp_api]}} or {{airflow[gcloud]}}. This ticket is to remove
> the {{airflow[gcloud]}} packaged, and all associated code.
> The main associated code, afaik, is the use of the {{gcloud}} library in the
> Google cloud storage hooks/operators--specifically for Google cloud storage
> Airfow logging.
