gcloud - Google Cloud command line Interface - Part -1

gcloud is a command-line interface to Google Cloud Platform. it is part of Google Cloud SDK.

Below are some basic usage.

1.) Getting help on commands.


VirtualBox:~/mybox/kubernetes/server/bin$ sudo gcloud --help

VirtualBox:~/mybox/kubernetes/server/bin$ sudo gcloud compute --help

2.) To Know the versions.

VirtualBox:~/mybox/kubernetes/server/bin$ sudo gcloud version

Google Cloud SDK 206.0.0
bq 2.0.34
core 2018.06.18
gsutil 4.32
kubectl 

3.) To understand the Cloud SDK properties of active configuration.

VirtualBox:~/mybox/kubernetes/server/bin$ sudo gcloud config list
[compute]
region = us-east1
zone = asia-east1-a
[core]
account = xxxxxxxx@gmail.com
disable_usage_reporting = False
project = techproj-208207

Your active configuration is: [default]

4.)  To know installed components.

VirtualBox:~/mybox/kubernetes/server/bin$ sudo gcloud components list

Your current Cloud SDK version is: 206.0.0
The latest available version is: 210.0.0

4a.)To install or remove components at your current SDK version [206.0.0], run:
  
$ gcloud components install COMPONENT_ID
$ gcloud components remove COMPONENT_ID

4b.)To update your SDK installation to the latest version [210.0.0], run:

$ gcloud components update

5.)  To get the info of current gcloud environment.

VirtualBox:~/mybox/kubernetes/server/bin$ sudo gcloud info
