The Storage sample application demonstrates some common operations with Google Cloud Storage and is compatible with Native Image compilation.
You will need to follow these prerequisite steps in order to run these samples:
-
If you have not already, create a Google Cloud Platform Project.
-
Install the Google Cloud SDK which will allow you to run the sample with your project's credentials.
Once installed, log in with Application Default Credentials using the following command:
gcloud auth application-default login
Note: Authenticating with Application Default Credentials is convenient to use during development, but we recommend alternate methods of authentication during production use.
-
Install the GraalVM compiler.
You can follow the official installation instructions from the GraalVM website. After following the instructions, ensure that you install the Native Image extension installed by running:
gu install native-image
Once you finish following the instructions, verify that the default version of Java is set to the GraalVM version by running
java -version
in a terminal.You will see something similar to the below output:
$ java -version openjdk version "11.0.7" 2020-04-14 OpenJDK Runtime Environment GraalVM CE 20.1.0 (build 11.0.7+10-jvmci-20.1-b02) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM GraalVM CE 20.1.0 (build 11.0.7+10-jvmci-20.1-b02, mixed mode, sharing)
Navigate to this directory in a new terminal.
-
Compile the application using the Native Image Compiler. This step may take a few minutes.
mvn package -P native -DskipTests
-
Run the application:
./target/native-image-sample
-
The application will run through basic Cloud Storage operations of creating, reading, and deleting Cloud Storage resources.
You can manually manage Cloud Storage resources through Google Cloud Console to verify that the resources are cleaned up.

In order to run the sample integration test as a native image, call the following command:
mvn test -Pnative
