- if the ServiceAccountCredentials#apply is called when the scope is not set, authentication with the equivalent ServiceAccountJwtHeaderCredentials instance is attempted. |

Description
This is Google's officially supported ruby client library for using OAuth 2.0 authorization and authentication with Google APIs.
Alpha
This library is in Alpha. We will make an effort to support the library, but we reserve the right to make incompatible changes when necessary.
Install
Be sure https://rubygems.org/
is in your gem sources.
For normal client usage, this is sufficient:
$ gem install googleauth
Example Usage
require 'googleauth'
# Get the environment configured authorization
scopes = ['https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform', 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/compute']
authorization = Google::Auth.get_application_default(scopes)
# Add the the access token obtained using the authorization to a hash, e.g
# headers.
some_headers = {}
authorization.apply(some_headers)
Application Default Credentials
This library provides an implementation of application default credentials for Ruby.
The Application Default Credentials provide a simple way to get authorization credentials for use in calling Google APIs.
They are best suited for cases when the call needs to have the same identity and authorization level for the application independent of the user. This is the recommended approach to authorize calls to Cloud APIs, particularly when you're building an application that uses Google Compute Engine.
What about auth in google-apis-ruby-client?
The goal is for all auth done by google-apis-ruby-client to be performed by this library. I.e, eventually google-apis-ruby-client will just take a dependency on this library. This update is a work in progress, but should be completed by Q2 2015.
