SDK de IA generativa de Google

El SDK de IA generativa de Google proporciona una interfaz unificada para los modelos de Gemini a través de la API de Gemini Developer y la API de Gemini en Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform. Con algunas excepciones, el código que se ejecuta en una plataforma se ejecutará en ambas. Esto significa que puedes crear un prototipo de una aplicación con la API de Gemini Developer y, luego, migrar la aplicación a Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform sin volver a escribir el código.

Para obtener más información sobre las diferencias entre la API de Gemini Developer y Gemini en Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform, consulta Cómo migrar de la API de Gemini Developer a la API de Gemini en Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform.

Instalar

pip install --upgrade google-genai

Configura las variables de entorno para usar el SDK de IA generativa con Vertex AI: 

# Replace the `GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT` and `GOOGLE_CLOUD_LOCATION` values
# with appropriate values for your project.
export GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT=GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT
export GOOGLE_CLOUD_LOCATION=global
export GOOGLE_GENAI_USE_ENTERPRISE=True

Guía de inicio rápido

Elige una de las siguientes opciones, según si usas Agent Platform en modo exprés o no.

  • Usar Agent Platform (con todas las Google Cloud capacidades y los servicios)
from google import genai
from google.genai.types import HttpOptions

client = genai.Client(http_options=HttpOptions(api_version="v1"))
response = client.models.generate_content(
    model="gemini-2.5-flash",
    contents="How does AI work?",
)
print(response.text)
# Example response:
# Okay, let's break down how AI works. It's a broad field, so I'll focus on the ...
#
# Here's a simplified overview:
# ...
  • Usar Agent Platform en modo exprés
from google import genai

# TODO(developer): Update below line
API_KEY = "YOUR_API_KEY"

client = genai.Client(vertexai=True, api_key=API_KEY)

response = client.models.generate_content(
    model="gemini-2.5-flash",
    contents="Explain bubble sort to me.",
)

print(response.text)
# Example response:
# Bubble Sort is a simple sorting algorithm that repeatedly steps through the list

/**
 * Usage:
 *
 * <p>1a. If you are using Vertex AI, setup ADC to get credentials:
 * https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/provide-credentials-adc#google-idp
 *
 * <p>Then set Project, Location, and USE_VERTEXAI flag as environment variables:
 *
 * <p>export GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT=YOUR_PROJECT
 *
 * <p>export GOOGLE_CLOUD_LOCATION=YOUR_LOCATION
 *
 * <p>export GOOGLE_GENAI_USE_VERTEXAI=true
 *
 * <p>1b. If you are using Gemini Developer API, set an API key environment variable. You can find a
 * list of available API keys here: https://aistudio.google.com/app/apikey
 *
 * <p>export GOOGLE_API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY
 *
 * <p>2. Compile the java package and run the sample code.
 *
 * <p>mvn clean compile exec:java -Dexec.mainClass="com.google.genai.examples.GenerateContent"
 * -Dexec.args="YOUR_MODEL_ID"
