Warning
The above example uses secrets as plain strings. It is recommended to use a secret store for the secrets as described here.Spec metadata fields
| Field | Required | Details | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| project_id | Y | The ID of the GCP project to use | "project-id" |
| endpoint | N | GCP endpoint for the component to use. Only used for local development with (for example) GCP Datastore Emulator. The endpoint is unnecessary when running against the GCP production API. |
"localhost:8432" |
| private_key_id | N | The ID of the prvate key to use | "private-key-id" |
| privateKey | N | If using explicit credentials, this field should contain the private_key field from the service account json |
-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----MIIBVgIBADANBgkqhkiG9w0B |
| client_email | N | The email address for the client | "eample@example.com" |
| client_id | N | The client id value to use for authentication | "client-id" |
| auth_uri | N | The authentication URI to use | "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth" |
| token_uri | N | The token URI to query for Auth token | "https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token" |
| auth_provider_x509_cert_url | N | The auth provider certificate URL | "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/certs" |
| client_x509_cert_url | N | The client certificate URL | "https://www.googleapis.com/robot/v1/metadata/x509/x" |
| entity_kind | N | The entity name in Filestore. Defaults to "DaprState" |
"DaprState" |
| noindex | N | Whether to disable indexing of state entities. Use this setting if you encounter Firestore index size limitations. Defaults to "false" |
"true" |
| type | N | DEPRECATED The credentials type | "serviceaccount" |
GCP Credentials
Since the GCP Firestore component uses the GCP Go Client Libraries, by default it authenticates using Application Default Credentials. This is explained in the Authenticate to GCP Cloud services using client libraries guide.
Setup GCP Firestore
You can use the GCP Datastore emulator to run locally using the instructions here.
You can then interact with the server using http://localhost:8432.
Follow the instructions here to get started with setting up Firestore in Google Cloud.
