I have a Google Bigtable cluster created. I'm trying to connect following this tutorial I was trying to download their cli project and build it, but when I try to execute any command it fails. Also I tried to build my simpler example of connector. Here it is:
import org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.Admin;
import org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.Connection;
import org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.ConnectionFactory;
import org.apache.log4j.Logger;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.ArrayList;
public class BigTableTestConnector {
private final static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(BigTableTestConnector.class);
public void testConnection() throws MasterNotRunningException, ZooKeeperConnectionException {
try {
Connection connection = ConnectionFactory.createConnection();
String tableName = "testTable";
ArrayList<String> columnFamilies = new ArrayList<String>();
columnFamilies.add("columnFamily1");
columnFamilies.add("columnFamily2");
columnFamilies.add("justString");
columnFamilies.add("uhhaha");
Admin admin = connection.getAdmin();
HTableDescriptor tableDescriptor = new HTableDescriptor(tableName);
for (String colFamily : columnFamilies) {
tableDescriptor.addFamily(new HColumnDescriptor(colFamily));
}
admin.createTable(tableDescriptor);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
logger.info("done");
}
public static void main(String... args) throws Exception {
BigTableTestConnector bttc = new BigTableTestConnector();
bttc.testConnection();
}
}
but when I run it on my local machine, I get following exception

It said:
ComputeEngineCredentials cannot find the metadata server. This is likely because code is not running on Google Compute Engine.
So does it mean that this code can run only inside Compute Engine? Is there a way to connect to it from my local computer? Does anyone have any examples of this?
