Identity-Aware Proxy Samples

These samples are used on the following documentation pages:

Using make_iap_request

Google App Engine flexible environment

Add the contents of this directory's requirements.txt file to the one inside your application.
Copy make_iap_request.py into your application.

Google App Engine standard environment

Follow the instructions in Installing a third-party library to install the google-auth and requests libraries into your application.
Copy make_iap_request.py into the same folder as app.yaml .

Google Compute Engine or Google Container Engine

Click here to visit Google Cloud Platform Console and enable the IAM API on your project.

Create a VM with the IAM scope:

gcloud compute instances create INSTANCE_NAME
--scopes=https://www.googleapis.com/auth/iam

Give your VM's default service account the Service Account Actor role:

gcloud projects add-iam-policy-binding PROJECT_ID
--role=roles/iam.serviceAccountActor
--member=serviceAccount:SERVICE_ACCOUNT

Install the libraries listed in requirements.txt, e.g. by running:
```
virtualenv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt
```
Copy make_iap_request.py into your application.

Using a downloaded service account private key

Create a service account and download its private key. See https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/creating-managing-service-account-keys for more information on how to do this.
Set the environment variable GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS to the path to your service account's .json file.
Install the libraries listed in requirements.txt, e.g. by running:
```
virtualenv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt
```
Copy make_iap_request.py into your application.

If you prefer to manage service account credentials manually, this method can also be used in the App Engine flexible environment, Compute Engine, and Container Engine. Note that this may be less secure, as anyone who obtains the service account private key can impersonate that account!

Using validate_jwt

validate_jwt is not compatible with App Engine standard environment; use App Engine's Users API instead. (See app_engine_app for an example of how to do this.)

For all other environments:

Install the libraries listed in requirements.txt, e.g. by running:
```
virtualenv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt
```
Copy validate_jwt.py into your application.

Running Tests

Deploy app_engine_app to a project.
Enable Identity-Aware Proxy on that project's App Engine app.
Add the service account you'll be running the test as to the Identity-Aware Proxy access list for the project.
Update iap_test.py with the hostname for your project.
Run the command: GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT=project-id pytest iap_test.py
