googleclient

Go library to attain google api clients for quick cli tools

usage:

import (
  "golang.org/x/net/context"
  "github.com/jazzboME/googleclient"
)

ctx := context.Background()
client := googleclient.GetClient(ctx, scope, credentialsFileName)

Where scope is the intended scopes required by your application, and the credentialsFileName is the name of the filename that will be placed in the ~/credentials directory. Multiple scopes can be indicated by separating each scope with a space. The credentialsFileName should be unique for each application.

This code is just a quick hack of the sample google code from pages like https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/quickstart/go and placed in a Go package.

This assumes that the OAuth2 credentials for the application have been downloaded into a client_secret.json file local to the application.
