const email = 'account_email';
const projectId = 'target_gcp_project';
await pubsub.initClient(projectId, email, privateKey);

here you have 3 params that you get from your account on GCP to authorize the package to publish messages on your behalf.

Note: if you pass any of those params as null or did not pass any of them at all, they will replaced by the following envs respectively:

• GCLOUD_PROJECT_ID_PUBSUB

• GCLOUD_CLIENT_EMAIL

• GCLOUD_PRIVATE_KEY

• to publish a message on any of your topics:

await pubsub.publish({'random': 'message'}, 't2'); // will return message id on topic

Note: you can pass a third argument create_topic as true to auto create the topic then publish the message
