  AssetServerPlugin.init({
    storageStrategyFactory: () => new GoogleStorageStrategy({

       * Thumbnails are available on product.featured_asset.thumbnail via GraphQL
       */
      thumbnails: {
        width: 500,
        height: 500,
      },
      /**
       * You can set this to 'false' to make the Vendure admin ui also consume images directly
       * from the Google Cloud Storage CDN,
       * instead of via the Vendure asset server
       */
      useAssetServerForAdminUi: false
    }),

  }),
  GoogleStoragePlugin,

Local development

For local development, use gcloud auth application-default login to authorize for your Gcloud project.
Internally this plugin uses new Storage(); to instantiate the Storage client, which uses ENV variables to authenticate:

// By default, the client will authenticate using the service account file
// specified by the GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS environment variable and use
// the project specified by the GCLOUD_PROJECT environment variable. See
// https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/production#providing_credentials_to_your_application
