There appear to be a lot of different docs on how to configure Google Storage with Fog. I've been able to get Paperclip to work with just a few parameters and was hoping to keep things simple for doing some basic file storage and manipulation:
connection = Fog::Storage.new({
provider: 'Google',
google_project: 'MYPROJECT',
google_storage_access_key_id: 'MYKEYID',
google_storage_secret_access_key: 'MYSECRET'
})
This will generate a warning:
[fog][WARNING] Unrecognized arguments: google_project
I'm able to store files, create buckets, and do everything I need EXCEPT I only have access to the default project. Does anyone know how I can simply specify the Google Project in the Fog::Storage.new hash?
Google storage credentials through Fog can be confusing because Google has two separate storage APIs. By using an access_key_id, you are opting to use the legacy XML storage API, which has no understanding of projects. If you remove the project arg, it works fine.
Since they are using a access_key and secret pair (and by doing so using the Google Storage XML API), they do not need to specify a project, since access keys are tied to a project.
