gcloud client

scripts to do things which you wish google console client does.

Installation

Required libs

• gcloud authenticated with projects and config set
• tmux
• tmuxinator

Go

go get -u github.com/devdinu/gcloud-client

Homebrew

brew install devdinu/devlife/gcloud-client

Usage

• gcloud-client --help to show the help with flag information

Add SSH key to compute instances

You could add your ssh key to compute instance[s], so you could ssh directly. default gcloud compute add ssh overrides the existing keys. you can add your key along with existing ones in instances with this command.

Add your ssh key to all google compute instances.

gcloud-client --limit=10 adds your key to 10 instances

The existing keys with new key is written to temp file and cleared after added to the instance.

You could customize the flags

• --limit total instances to add
• --filter regexp to filter the instances while listing. uses gcloud filter=name~'regex'
• --user username to which your ssh key is added for, defaults to $USER
• --ssh_key ssh_key file to be uploaded, defaults to $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
• --dbfile file to store the instances and search, defaults to $HOME/hosts.db
• --projects list of project-ids to search for while login, or to refresh

gcloud-client --ssh_key=$HOME/.ssh/id_rsa.pub --filter='.*pg.*' --limit=10 --user username

Add to single instance

You could give --instance and --zone to add ssh key to single instance, as its faster than listing instances with regexp

gcloud-client --instance=some_instance --zone=asia-zone

CheatSheet

globals flags: timeout

if you've installed via homebrew, use gcl instead of gcloud-client

gcloud-client ssh grant --key=someone-key.pub --prefix=
gcloud-ciient ssh revoke --name=someone --prefix= # Unimplemented

// searching
gcloud-client instances search --prefix vm-prefix-to-search --project=project
gcloud-client instances search --regex some.*regex # WIP
gcloud-client instances refresh --timeout
gcloud-client instances list --project=specific-project  # WIP

// ssh
gcloud-client instances login --prefix some-prefix --user username --session session_name
gcloud-client instances login --regex some-prefix # WIP
gcloud-client instances login --tag some-prefix   # WIP

App:

• Setup script to install gcl and tmuxinator template and tmuxinator if needed (2.7)
• CI to build binary
• enable os.Stdin in cmd.execute

SSH ACCESS

• Display IP after adding the key
• Adding IP, name mapping to the /etc/hosts file
• Remove particular ssh key with id
• Infer id from the sshkey

SEARCH

• Display progress bar on refresh projects
• store state (Terminated) information and ignore in search, or show
• Optimize storing in db performance
  • used goroutines for each project with multiple workers
  • Write benchmark
• List projects to use cache
• Override projects from cmdline

CODE/FEATURES

• use logger package
• Define a list of global flags
• Add gci command to do ls, switch projects
• Basic Tagging

SIMPLICITY

• use default configuration file, so no need to mention in cmdline

Maybe Laaaaater.

• Use knife tags to tag instances than manual
