Cloud Logging API - Class Google::Cloud::Logging::Project (v2.5.0)

Reference documentation and code samples for the Cloud Logging API class Google::Cloud::Logging::Project.

Project

Projects are top-level containers in Google Cloud Platform. They store information about billing and authorized users, and they control access to Stackdriver Logging resources. Each project has a friendly name and a unique ID. Projects can be created only in the Google Developers Console. See Google::Cloud#logging.

Methods

#async_writer

def async_writer(max_batch_count: 10_000, max_batch_bytes: 10_000_000, max_queue_size: 100, interval: 5, threads: 10, partial_success: false) -> Google::Cloud::Logging::AsyncWriter

Creates an object that buffers, batches, and transmits log entries efficiently. Writing log entries to this object is asynchronous and will not block.

Batches that cannot be delivered immediately are queued. When the queue is full new batch requests will raise errors that can be consumed using the AsyncWriter#on_error callback. This provides back pressure in case the writer cannot keep up with requests.

This object is thread-safe; it may accept write requests from multiple threads simultaneously, and will serialize them when executing in the background thread.

Parameters
  • max_batch_count (Integer) (defaults to: 10_000) — The maximum number of log entries that may be buffered and sent in a batch.
  • max_batch_bytes (Integer) (defaults to: 10_000_000) — The maximum byte size of log entries that may be buffered and sent in a batch.
  • max_queue_size (Integer) (defaults to: 100) — The maximum number of pending write_entries requests that may be queued.
  • interval (Numeric) (defaults to: 5) — The number of seconds to buffer log entries before a batch is written. Default is 5.
  • threads (Integer) (defaults to: 10) — The number of threads used to make batched write_entries requests. Default is 10.
  • partial_success (Boolean) (defaults to: false) — Whether valid entries should be written even if some other entries fail due to INVALID_ARGUMENT or PERMISSION_DENIED errors when communicating to the Stackdriver Logging API.
Returns
Example 
require "google/cloud/logging"

logging = Google::Cloud::Logging.new

async = logging.async_writer

entry1 = logging.entry payload: "Job started."
entry2 = logging.entry payload: "Job completed."

labels = { job_size: "large", job_code: "red" }
resource = logging.resource "gae_app",
                            "module_id" => "1",
                            "version_id" => "20150925t173233"

async.write_entries [entry1, entry2],
                    log_name: "my_app_log",
                    resource: resource,
                    labels: labels

#create_metric

def create_metric(name, filter, description: nil) -> Google::Cloud::Logging::Metric
Aliases

Creates a new logs-based metric for Google Cloud Monitoring.

Parameters
  • name (String) — The client-assigned metric identifier. Metric identifiers are limited to 1000 characters and can include only the following characters: A-Z, a-z, 0-9, and the special characters _-.,+!*',()%/\. The forward-slash character (/) denotes a hierarchy of name pieces, and it cannot be the first character of the name.
  • filter (String) — An advanced logs filter.
  • description (String, nil) (defaults to: nil) — A description of this metric, which is used in documentation.
Returns
Example 
require "google/cloud/logging"

logging = Google::Cloud::Logging.new
metric = logging.create_metric "errors", "severity>=ERROR"

#create_sink

def create_sink(name, destination, filter: nil, unique_writer_identity: nil) -> Google::Cloud::Logging::Sink
Aliases

Creates a new project sink. When you create a sink, only new log entries that match the sink's filter are exported. Stackdriver Logging does not send previously-ingested log entries to the sink's destination.

Before creating the sink, ensure that you have granted the sink's unique writer identity permission to write logs to the destination. See Destination permissions.

Overloads 
def create_sink(name, destination, filter: nil, unique_writer_identity: nil) -> Google::Cloud::Logging::Sink
Creates a new project sink. When you create a sink, only new log entries that match the sink's filter are exported. Stackdriver Logging does not send previously-ingested log entries to the sink's destination.

Before creating the sink, ensure that you have granted the sink's unique writer identity permission to write logs to the destination. See Destination permissions.

Parameters
  • name (String) — The client-assigned sink identifier. Sink identifiers are limited to 1000 characters and can include only the following characters: A-Z, a-z, 0-9, and the special characters _-..
  • destination (String) — The resource name of the export destination. See About sinks for examples.
  • filter (String, nil) (defaults to: nil) — An advanced logs filter that defines the log entries to be exported. The filter must be consistent with the log entry format designed by the version parameter, regardless of the format of the log entry that was originally written to Stackdriver Logging.
  • unique_writer_identity (Boolean) (defaults to: nil) — Whether the sink will have a dedicated service account returned in the sink's writer_identity. Set this field to be true to export logs from one project to a different project. This field is ignored for non-project sinks (e.g. organization sinks) because those sinks are required to have dedicated service accounts. Optional.
Returns
Example 
require "google/cloud/storage"

storage = Google::Cloud::Storage.new

bucket = storage.create_bucket "my-logs-bucket"

# Grant owner permission to Stackdriver Logging service
email = "cloud-logs@google.com"
bucket.acl.add_owner "group-#{email}"

require "google/cloud/logging"

logging = Google::Cloud::Logging.new

sink = logging.create_sink "my-sink",
                           "storage.googleapis.com/#{bucket.id}"

#delete_log

def delete_log(name) -> Boolean

Deletes a log and all its log entries. The log will reappear if it receives new entries.

Parameter
  • name (String) — The name of the log, which may be the full path including the project ID (projects/<project-id>/logs/<log-id>), or just the short name (<log-id>), in which case the beginning of the path will be automatically prepended, using the ID of the current project.
Returns
  • (Boolean) — Returns true if the log and all its log entries were deleted.
Example 
require "google/cloud/logging"

logging = Google::Cloud::Logging.new
logging.delete_log "my_app_log"

#entries

def entries(resources: nil, filter: nil, order: nil, token: nil, max: nil, projects: nil) -> Array<Google::Cloud::Logging::Entry>
Aliases

Lists log entries. Use this method to retrieve log entries from Cloud Logging.

Parameters
  • resources (String, Array<String>) (defaults to: nil) — One or more cloud resources from which to retrieve log entries. If both resources and projects are nil, the ID of the receiving project instance will be used. Examples: "projects/my-project-1A", "projects/1234567890".
  • filter (String) (defaults to: nil) — An advanced logs filter. The filter is compared against all log entries in the projects specified by projects. Only entries that match the filter are retrieved. An empty filter matches all log entries.
  • order (String) (defaults to: nil) — How the results should be sorted. Presently, the only permitted values are "timestamp" (default) and "timestamp desc".
  • token (String) (defaults to: nil) — A previously-returned page token representing part of the larger set of results to view.
  • max (Integer) (defaults to: nil) — Maximum number of entries to return.
  • projects (String, Array<String>) (defaults to: nil) — One or more project IDs or project numbers from which to retrieve log entries. Each value will be formatted as a project resource name and added to any values passed to resources. If both resources and projects are nil, the ID of the receiving project instance will be used. This is deprecated in favor of resources.
Returns

#new_resource

def new_resource(type, labels = {}) -> Google::Cloud::Logging::Resource
Alias Of: #resource

Creates a new monitored resource instance.

Parameters
  • type (String) — The type of resource, as represented by a ResourceDescriptor.
  • labels (Hash) — A set of labels that can be used to describe instances of this monitored resource type.
Returns
Example 
require "google/cloud/logging"

logging = Google::Cloud::Logging.new

resource = logging.resource "gae_app",
                            "module_id" => "1",

#new_sink

def create_sink(name, destination, filter: nil, unique_writer_identity: nil) -> Google::Cloud::Logging::Sink
Alias Of: #create_sink

Creates a new project sink. When you create a sink, only new log entries that match the sink's filter are exported. Stackdriver Logging does not send previously-ingested log entries to the sink's destination.

Before creating the sink, ensure that you have granted the sink's unique writer identity permission to write logs to the destination. See Destination permissions.

Overloads 
def create_sink(name, destination, filter: nil, unique_writer_identity: nil) -> Google::Cloud::Logging::Sink
filter](https://cloud.google.com/logging/docs/view/advanced_filters) that defines the log entries to be exported. The filter must be consistent with the log entry format designed by the version parameter, regardless of the format of the log entry that was originally written to Stackdriver Logging.
Parameters
  • name (String) — The client-assigned sink identifier. Sink identifiers are limited to 1000 characters and can include only the following characters: A-Z, a-z, 0-9, and the special characters _-..
  • destination (String) — The resource name of the export destination. See About sinks for examples.
  • filter (String, nil) (defaults to: nil) — An [advanced logs
  • unique_writer_identity (Boolean) (defaults to: nil) — Whether the sink will have a dedicated service account returned in the sink's writer_identity. Set this field to be true to export logs from one project to a different project. This field is ignored for non-project sinks (e.g. organization sinks) because those sinks are required to have dedicated service accounts. Optional.
Returns
Example 
require "google/cloud/storage"

storage = Google::Cloud::Storage.new

bucket = storage.create_bucket "my-logs-bucket"

# Grant owner permission to Stackdriver Logging service

#write_entries

def write_entries(entries, log_name: nil, resource: nil, labels: nil, partial_success: nil) -> Boolean

Writes log entries to the Stackdriver Logging service.

If you write a collection of log entries, you can provide the log name, resource, and/or labels hash to be used for all of the entries, and omit these values from the individual entries.

Parameters
  • entries (Google::Cloud::Logging::Entry, Array<Google::Cloud::Logging::Entry>) — One or more entry objects to write. The log entries must have values for all required fields.
  • log_name (String) (defaults to: nil) — A default log ID for those log entries in entries that do not specify their own log_name. See also Entry#log_name=.
  • resource (Resource) (defaults to: nil) — A default monitored resource for those log entries in entries that do not specify their own resource. See also Entry#resource.
  • labels (Hash{Symbol,String => String}) (defaults to: nil) — User-defined key:value items that are added to the labels field of each log entry in entries, except when a log entry specifies its own key:value item with the same key. See also Entry#labels=.
  • partial_success (Boolean) (defaults to: nil) — Whether valid entries should be written even if some other entries fail due to INVALID_ARGUMENT or PERMISSION_DENIED errors when communicating to the Stackdriver Logging API.
Returns
  • (Boolean) — Returns true if the entries were written.
