How to Build a Custom Google Cloud API Library

How to Build a Custom Google Cloud API LibraryIn my experience building a custom Google Cloud API library I would always hear the same question over again; 'Why not build it myself?' This, of course, is one of the biggest misconceptions with building a custom library. Many of the libraries are made to help you out and provide that 'one-stop shop' for all of your data needs. But for the more advanced information on building your own custom library it really pays to talk to other people who have built them before.In building a library I've seen libraries built by people who never even looked at libraries before. It was a serious project for them and they did everything in their power to try and get it done as quickly as possible. What I found is that it's a lot harder than it seems. It's definitely a whole lot less fun. This is where someone like me comes in.For someone that has experience working with complex math before they can do much of the math involved in building a library for you. The other big mistake that I've seen a lot of people make is they choose to build their own for one reason or another and find that it's just too difficult or not fun. There are some really simple tips to avoid this as well.Before starting out with your custom library it's a good idea to take a quick refresher and read through the instructions for getting started with a project like this. Also make sure that you check out some of the older resources to see if you don't already know this stuff. If you're looking for a generic library, there's plenty to look at out there. You'll also be able to spot errors more easily than if you didn't have a library to work from.I always say the best thing about building a custom library is the fact that once you get it up and running you can modify it as you see fit and you don't have to worry about someone stealing it or being forced to go back and figure out what you didn't do. No one ever said life was going to be easy when it comes to chan ging libraries. However, once you're done you'll have an easy to use and flexible library that works for everyone.Building a simple library that can be customized to your liking is one of the easiest things that you can do when you're learning how to build your own. Of course you'll want to do a bit of research on different ones so that you can pick out the one that is right for you. Don't forget that having a few libraries up at once can slow you down and can prevent you from making progress at all.Keep in mind the fact that it's not a hard process to build a custom Google Cloud API library. The only real factor is figuring out how to do it and you can do that very easily. Make sure you keep yourself updated on the newest version of the API and the latest technology that can be used to speed up your library creation.
