[jira] [Created] (LIBCLOUD-657) Update Google auth to support new JSON key format

Eric Johnson created LIBCLOUD-657:

             Summary: Update Google auth to support new JSON key format
                 Key: LIBCLOUD-657
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LIBCLOUD-657
             Project: Libcloud
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Compute
            Reporter: Eric Johnson
            Assignee: Eric Johnson


Google introduced a new Service Account key format (JSON) and over time this will likely become the preferred format. We should begin by supporting this new format soon. If Google does make this the default, we may want to follow-up and issue a (debug | info) warning to users relying on P12 format.

AFAIK, there is no clear documentation on this format. However, if you open up the Developers Console and look under "APIs & Auth" -> "Credentials", you'll see the "Generate New JSON Key" button next to any existing Service Accounts (or be given the option to create one with a new SA).
