For what its worth, if you need to install this plugin, I was able to pre-install the dependencies with specific versions and then install embulk-input-bigquery 0.0.9

Pastebin with list (im sure not all are necessary): https://pastebin.com/raw/QFmtQfJv

I think the kicker was installing version 1.3.0 for ruby gem google-cloud-core. Somewhere along the way one of the more up-to-date google gems has a dependency on google-cloud-errors which always requires >= Ruby 2.4

Thanks for the tips!

In our case it was solved by the following command

$ embulk gem install google-cloud-core -v 1.3.0
