Description
Summary
StoredCredential file is not cleaned out by gradle
Sample Name
Google Calendar Quickstart
Expected Behavior
There should be a clean gradle command that really does clean, given that in the example a tokens/StoredCredential
file gets created when you first run the example.
Actual Behavior
The user is unaware of the fact that a tokens/StoredCredential
file gets dumped when running the calendar/quickstart
example the first time. The user takes care of the credentials.json
file as per instructions on this page.
If after a while, the credentials expire (like in test mode, after 7 days, say) and the user then tries to rerun the example, even with a new, valid regenerated credentials.json
the sample code will fail, leaving the user a bit puzzled. The user gets an error like:
> Task :run FAILED
Exception in thread "main" com.google.api.client.auth.oauth2.TokenResponseException: 400 Bad Request
POST https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token
{
"error": "invalid_grant",
"error_description": "Token has been expired or revoked."
}
with little indication of why, because after getting new credentials, calls will still fail.
Adding a Gradle command like for example gradle cleanStoredCredential
and a good .gitignore
file may help.
