Creates and returns a new ReferenceImage resource. The bounding_poly field is optional. If bounding_poly is not specified, the system will try to detect regions of interest in the image that are compatible with the product_category on the parent product. If it is specified, detection is ALWAYS skipped. The system converts polygons into non-rotated rectangles. Note that the pipeline will resize the image if the image resolution is too large to process (above 50MP). Possible errors: * Returns INVALID_ARGUMENT if the image_uri is missing or longer than 4096 characters. * Returns INVALID_ARGUMENT if the product does not exist. * Returns INVALID_ARGUMENT if bounding_poly is not provided, and nothing compatible with the parent product's product_category is detected. * Returns INVALID_ARGUMENT if bounding_poly contains more than 10 polygons.

Scopes

You will need authorization for at least one of the following scopes to make a valid call:

  • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform
  • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-vision

If unset, the scope for this method defaults to https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform. You can set the scope for this method like this: vision1 --scope <scope> projects locations-products-reference-images-create ...

Required Scalar Argument

  • <parent> (string)
    • Required. Resource name of the product in which to create the reference image. Format is projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOC_ID/products/PRODUCT_ID.

Required Request Value

The request value is a data-structure with various fields. Each field may be a simple scalar or another data-structure. In the latter case it is advised to set the field-cursor to the data-structure's field to specify values more concisely.

For example, a structure like this:

ReferenceImage:
  name: string
  uri: string

can be set completely with the following arguments which are assumed to be executed in the given order. Note how the cursor position is adjusted to the respective structures, allowing simple field names to be used most of the time.

  • -r . name=et
    • The resource name of the reference image. Format is: projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOC_ID/products/PRODUCT_ID/referenceImages/IMAGE_ID. This field is ignored when creating a reference image.
  • uri=et
    • Required. The Google Cloud Storage URI of the reference image. The URI must start with gs://.

About Cursors

The cursor position is key to comfortably set complex nested structures. The following rules apply:

  • The cursor position is always set relative to the current one, unless the field name starts with the . character. Fields can be nested such as in -r f.s.o .
  • The cursor position is set relative to the top-level structure if it starts with ., e.g. -r .s.s
  • You can also set nested fields without setting the cursor explicitly. For example, to set a value relative to the current cursor position, you would specify -r struct.sub_struct=bar.
  • You can move the cursor one level up by using ... Each additional . moves it up one additional level. E.g. ... would go three levels up.

Optional Output Flags

The method's return value a JSON encoded structure, which will be written to standard output by default.

  • -o out
    • out specifies the destination to which to write the server's result to. It will be a JSON-encoded structure. The destination may be - to indicate standard output, or a filepath that is to contain the received bytes. If unset, it defaults to standard output.

Optional Method Properties

You may set the following properties to further configure the call. Please note that -p is followed by one or more key-value-pairs, and is called like this -p k1=v1 k2=v2 even though the listing below repeats the -p for completeness.

  • -p reference-image-id=string
    • A user-supplied resource id for the ReferenceImage to be added. If set, the server will attempt to use this value as the resource id. If it is already in use, an error is returned with code ALREADY_EXISTS. Must be at most 128 characters long. It cannot contain the character /.

Optional General Properties

The following properties can configure any call, and are not specific to this method.

  • -p $-xgafv=string

    • V1 error format.
  • -p access-token=string

    • OAuth access token.
  • -p alt=string

    • Data format for response.
  • -p callback=string

    • JSONP
  • -p fields=string

    • Selector specifying which fields to include in a partial response.
  • -p key=string

    • API key. Your API key identifies your project and provides you with API access, quota, and reports. Required unless you provide an OAuth 2.0 token.
  • -p oauth-token=string

    • OAuth 2.0 token for the current user.
  • -p pretty-print=boolean

    • Returns response with indentations and line breaks.
  • -p quota-user=string

    • Available to use for quota purposes for server-side applications. Can be any arbitrary string assigned to a user, but should not exceed 40 characters.
  • -p upload-type=string

    • Legacy upload protocol for media (e.g. "media", "multipart").
  • -p upload-protocol=string

    • Upload protocol for media (e.g. "raw", "multipart").
