Problem Integrating Google Cloud Platform Computer Vision with AEM

[Sarveswaran]

I am trying to use GCP Computer Vision with AEM and I've added the following dependencies in the Maven pom.xml:

        <dependency>
		  <groupId>com.google.apis</groupId>
		  <artifactId>google-api-services-vision</artifactId>
		  <version>v1-rev20210423-1.32.1</version>
		</dependency>
		<dependency>
		  <groupId>com.google.auth</groupId>
		  <artifactId>google-auth-library-oauth2-http</artifactId>
		  <version>0.26.0</version>
		</dependency>
		<dependency>
		  <groupId>com.google.guava</groupId>
		  <artifactId>guava</artifactId>
		  <version>30.1.1-jre</version>
		</dependency>
		<dependency>
		  <groupId>com.google.http-client</groupId>
		  <artifactId>google-http-client-jackson2</artifactId>
		  <version>1.39.2</version>
		</dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.google.api-client</groupId>
            <artifactId>google-api-client</artifactId>
            <version>1.32.1</version>
        </dependency>

 and the following in core pom.xml

        <dependency>
		  <groupId>com.google.apis</groupId>
		  <artifactId>google-api-services-vision</artifactId>
		</dependency>
		<dependency>
		  <groupId>com.google.auth</groupId>
		  <artifactId>google-auth-library-oauth2-http</artifactId>
		</dependency>
		<dependency>
		  <groupId>com.google.guava</groupId>
		  <artifactId>guava</artifactId>
		</dependency>
		<dependency>
		  <groupId>com.google.http-client</groupId>
		  <artifactId>google-http-client-jackson2</artifactId>
		</dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.google.api-client</groupId>
            <artifactId>google-api-client</artifactId>
        </dependency>

After installing the package/bundle, I see the following error messages in the Felix console and I'm not able to use the bundle.

 Moreover, the dependencies have been added during the build and is present in the .m2 directory and yet, it shows that it cannot be resolved.
I am using AEM 6.5.0 and the project archetype is 22.
Any suggestion would be much appreciated. Thanks

Hi @Sarveswaran,

Added dependencies are not resolved as an OSGi dependency (Not available/resolved in the context of OSGi as a bundle)

We need to create an OSGi bundle of the desired dependencies.

Use the sample pom.xml shared in this blog post as a reference - https://myaemlearnings.blogspot.com/2021/02/createbuild-and-install-osgi-bundle-of.html

• In the maven-bundle-plugin definition -> Export-Package entry add the ones that are not resolved as highlighted in red (Instead of "*")
• This is because some of the google APIs are already available in the instance and exposed via OOTB bundles. (as highlighted in green - have used your screenshot posted in the query)

Thanks for the solution @Vijayalakshmi_S!
