How to read simple text file from Google Cloud Storage using Spark-Scala local Program

Question

As given in the below blog,

https://cloud.google.com/blog/big-data/2016/06/google-cloud-dataproc-the-fast-easy-and-safe-way-to-try-spark-20-preview

I was trying to read file from Google Cloud Storage using Spark-scala. For that I have imported Google Cloud Storage Connector and Google Cloud Storage as below,

// https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.google.cloud/google-cloud-storage
compile group: 'com.google.cloud', name: 'google-cloud-storage', version: '0.7.0'

// https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.google.cloud.bigdataoss/gcs-connector
compile group: 'com.google.cloud.bigdataoss', name: 'gcs-connector', version: '1.6.0-hadoop2'

After that created a simple scala object file like below, (Created a sparkSession)

val csvData = spark.read.csv("gs://my-bucket/project-data/csv")

But it is throwing below error,

17/03/01 20:16:02 INFO GoogleHadoopFileSystemBase: GHFS version: 1.6.0-hadoop2

I have setup all the authentications as well. Not sure how the timeout is getting flashed.

Edit

I am trying to run above code through IntelliJ Idea (Windows). The JAR file for same code is working fine on Google Cloud DataProc but giving above error when I run it through local system. I have installed Spark,Scala,Google Cloud plugins in IntelliJ.

One more thing, I had created Dataproc instance and tried to connect to External IP address as given in the documentation, https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/instances/connecting-to-instance#standardssh

It was not able to connect to the server giving Timeout Error

Thank you Dennis for showing direction to the problem. Since I am using Windows OS, there is no core-site.xml because hadoop is not available for windows.

I have downloaded pre-built spark and in the code itself configured the parameter mentioned by you as given below

Created a SparkSession and using its variable configured hadoop parameter like spark.SparkContext.hadoopConfiguration.set("google.cloud.auth.service.account.json.keyfile","<KeyFile Path>") and all other parameters which we need to setup in the core-site.xml.

After setting all these, Program could access the files from Google Cloud Storage.
