Description
The google-api-client HTTP client is a really standard HTTP client used in GCP, and it was used by a Google technology that was basically a clone of swagger (Cloud Endpoints). It's a very common HTTP framework used in GCP, and has good interop with the authentication abstractions provided by Google.
e.g. you can combine HTTPRequestInitializers (com.google.api.client.http.HttpRequestInitializer), and Google provides some nice classes that extend HttpRequestInitializer such as
com.google.api.client.auth.oauth2.Credential - for OAuth authentication, which handles refreshing tokens and so oncom.google.api.client.googleapis.auth.oauth2.GoogleCredential - which handles service account auth and also refreshes the token automagically.
TL; DR - we really want codegen for the google-api-client HTTP library!!
Swagger-codegen version
2.2.3. There's no support for this http library, it's not a regression.
Swagger declaration file content or url
n/a not a bug.
Command line used for generation
After we implement this, I would suggest the library is called google-api-client.
Steps to reproduce
n/a it's a new feature request
Related issues/PRs
I don't see anything related. Searching for "google-api-client" turns up 0 results in the issues.
Suggest a fix/enhancement
I'm planning to fix this by adding a new library type to the Java client codegen! My PR will be ready soon!
