### Authorization using environment variables
The [GoogleAuth Library for Ruby](https://github.com/google/google-auth-library-ruby) also supports authorization via
environment variables if you do not want to check in developer credentials
or private keys. Simply set the following variables for your application:
```sh
GOOGLE_ACCOUNT_TYPE="YOUR ACCOUNT TYPE" # ie. 'service'
GOOGLE_CLIENT_EMAIL="YOUR GOOGLE DEVELOPER EMAIL"
GOOGLE_PRIVATE_KEY="YOUR GOOGLE DEVELOPER API KEY"
```
## Samples
Samples for versions 0.9 and onward can be found in the `samples` directory.
