## 1. Environment setup

### 1.1. Python + virtualenv

Using [virtualenv][3] is optional, but strongly recommended unless you use [Docker](#12-docker).

#### 1.1.1. Install Python 3.6+

#### 1.1.2. Get the source code
```bash
git clone https://github.com/mesmacosta/datacatalog-tag-template-exporter
cd ./datacatalog-tag-template-exporter
```

_All paths starting with `./` in the next steps are relative to the `datacatalog-tag-template-exporter`
folder._

#### 1.1.3. Create and activate an isolated Python environment

```bash
pip install --upgrade virtualenv
python3 -m virtualenv --python python3 env
source ./env/bin/activate
```

#### 1.1.4. Install the package

```bash
pip install --upgrade .
```

### 1.2. Docker

Docker may be used as an alternative to run the script. In this case, please disregard the
[Virtualenv](#11-python--virtualenv) setup instructions.

### 1.3. Auth credentials

#### 1.3.1. Create a service account and grant it below roles

- Data Catalog Admin

#### 1.3.2. Download a JSON key and save it as
This name is just a suggestion, feel free to name it following your naming conventions
- `./credentials/datacatalog-tag-template-exporter-sa.json`

#### 1.3.3. Set the environment variables

_This step may be skipped if you're using [Docker](#12-docker)._

```bash
export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=~/credentials/datacatalog-tag-template-exporter-sa.json
```

## 2. Export Templates to CSV file

### 2.1. A CSV file representing the Templates will be created

Templates are composed of as many lines as required to represent all of their fields. The columns are
described as follows:

| **template_name**      | Resource name of the Tag Template for the Tag. | 
| **display_name**       | Resource name of the Tag Template for the Tag. | 
| **field_id**           | Id of the Tag Template field.                  | 
| **field_display_name** | Display name of the Tag Template field.        | 
| **field_type**         | Type of the Tag Template field.                | 
| **enum_values**        | Values for the Enum field.                     | 

### 2.2. Run the datacatalog-tag-template-exporter script

- Python + virtualenv

```bash
datacatalog-tag-template-exporter tag-templates export --project-ids my-project --file-path CSV_FILE_PATH
```
