For newly created project

Old behavior: Enable a few APIs (take a while), then write the free trial template.

New behavior: If FDC API wasn't enabled, just write the template and exist.

Summary of Changes

Hello @fredzqm, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request streamlines the initialization process for Spark projects by optimizing the API enablement flow. Instead of unconditionally enabling several APIs, the system now first checks if the core Data Connect API is already enabled. If it is, it proceeds with ensuring other necessary APIs and prompting for existing services; otherwise, it simplifies the initial setup by only writing the template, reducing setup time for new projects where the API might not yet be active.

Highlights

  • Optimized API Initialization: The ensureApis function now conditionally checks if the Data Connect API is already enabled using a new isApiEnabled function, preventing redundant API enablement calls during project initialization.
  • Reduced API Dependencies: The computeOrigin API is no longer ensured as part of the general ensureApis flow, simplifying the required API set for Data Connect projects.
  • Refactored Setup Logic: The askQuestions function in the Data Connect initialization feature has been updated to incorporate the new conditional API checks, leading to a more efficient and responsive setup experience.

Code Review

This pull request simplifies the init flow for Spark projects by checking for API enablement upfront. If APIs are not enabled, it triggers the enablement process in the background to improve the user experience, which is a great enhancement. My main feedback is to add error handling for this background task to prevent unhandled promise rejections that could crash the application.

await ensureApis(setup.projectId);
info = await promptForExistingServices(setup, info);
} else {
void ensureApis(setup.projectId);

Using void to fire-and-forget this promise is a good way to speed up the init flow. However, if the ensureApis promise rejects (for example, due to permissions or billing issues), it will result in an unhandled promise rejection, which can crash the Node.js process.

It's safer to attach a .catch() handler to log the error for debugging purposes without blocking the main execution thread.

      ensureApis(setup.projectId).catch((err) => {
        // Log for debugging, but don't block the init flow.
        logger.debug(`[dataconnect] Background API enablement failed: ${err.message}`);
      });
