setup-gcloud

This action configures the Google Cloud SDK in the environment for use in actions. The Google Cloud SDK includes both the gcloud and gsutil binaries.

It does the following:

  1. Downloads a version of the Google Cloud SDK according to the specified version input, as well as the environment OS and architecture.

  2. Installs and caches the downloaded version into the actions environment.

  3. If project_id is specified, gcloud will use this project ID as the default project ID for all future invocations. You can override this on a per-invocation basis using the --project flag.

  4. If service_account_key is specified, authenticates the gcloud CLI tool using the service account key. For legacy .p12 keys, you must also specify a service_account_email.

  5. If export_default_credentials is specified, exports the path to the credentials in the environment variable GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS to be available in later steps. Google Cloud technologies automatically use this environment variable to find credentials.

    IMPORTANT! Exporting default credentials requires actions/checkout@v2. The v1 tag is not supported and will not work.

Prerequisites

  • This action requires Python 2.7.9 or later to be installed on the environment.

  • A pre-configured GCP service account. More info.

  • actions/checkout@v2 if using export_default_credentials.

Usage

steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- uses: GoogleCloudPlatform/github-actions/setup-gcloud@master
  with:
    version: '290.0.1'
    project_id: ${{ secrets.GCP_PROJECT_ID }}
    service_account_key: ${{ secrets.GCP_SA_KEY }}
    export_default_credentials: true
- run: gcloud info

Inputs

  • version: (Optional) The version of the gcloud to be installed. Example: 290.0.1, Default: latest

  • service_account_email: (Optional) Service account email address to use for authentication. This is required for legacy .p12 keys but can be omitted for .json keys. This is usually of the format <name>@<project-id>.iam.gserviceaccount.com.

  • service_account_key: (Optional) The service account key which will be used for authentication. This key should be created, encoded as a Base64 string (eg. cat my-key.json | base64 on macOS), and stored as a secret.

  • export_default_credentials: (Optional) Export the provided credentials as Google Default Application Credentials. This will make the credentials available to later steps. Future steps that consume Default Application Credentials will automatically detect and use these credentials. Every time the action is run, this will generate a temporary file in the root of the repository with a random name, to hold the exported credentials.

  • project_id: (Optional) ID of the Google Cloud project. If provided, this will configure gcloud to use this project ID by default for commands. Individual commands can still override the project using the --project flag which takes precedence.
