Download full-text PDF Read full-text. It runs on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. Gcloud opens a new browser window when you execute this command. Over the users I've written a good bit about pushing a workload off to a virtual machine sitting in a data center somewhere. The Google CloudPlatform has matured a lot and I haven't really gotten around to writing about it. So It's worth going into their SDK and what it looks like from a shell Continue reading Scripting Instances On Google Cloud From A Mac. It is another cloud torrent download website that supports 1 GB of cloud storage in the free plan, but all the downloads are over HTTP connection (unsecured), but you can stream torrents on all of your devices. If you need more, they have paid plans starting from $5 a month. I might get a premium plan very soon, will update the experience with it.
In this article we will download and install the Google gcloud CLI. Then we will setup gcloud with Google Service Account credentials. This article is for Windows based system but the same principles apply to Linux and Mac systems.
Step 1 – Download gcloud Step 2 – Launch the installerAt the Completing the Google Cloud SDK Setup Wizard
, deselect Run gcloud init
Unify circuit for outlook. to configure the Cloud SDK. The reason is that we only want to use Service Account credentials.
This command should succeed and provide a listing of the files in this bucket. This command verifies that the CLI is installed. We have not setup credentials yet.
Step 4 – Access one of your own private bucketsThis step will verify that you have no credentials. Change the bucket name to a private bucket that you own.
This command should fail. If it succeeds you have a public bucket that anyone can access.

Step 5 – Create Google Service Account credentials.You can skip this step if you already have credentials to use.
In this example we will only grant Storage Admin
to these credentials.
- Go to
IAM & admin
->Service accounts
- Click
CREATE SERVICE ACCOUNT
- Enter a
Service account name
andService account description
- Click
CREATE
- In the next screen
Service account permissions
, select a role. - Select
Storage
->Storage Admin
- Click
CONTINUE
- Click
Create key
- Check the
JSON
radio button for theKey type
- Save the json file to your local computer.
Make note of the email address that Google Cloud created for these credentials.
Step 6- Configure gcloud with the Google Service Account credentials![Gcloud Gcloud](https://cdn.setapp.com/blog/images/google-drive-download-mac.png)
In this example, the email address is: test@development-123456.iam.gserviceaccount.com
The credentials file is: test_google_account.json
Modify these items to what you created in step 5.
Welcome! This command will take you through the configuration of gcloud. Your current configuration has been set to: [default] You can skip diagnostics next time by using the following flag: gcloud init –skip-diagnostics Network diagnostic detects and fixes local network connection issues. Checking network connection…done. Reachability Check passed. Network diagnostic (1/1 checks) passed. You must log in to continue. Would you like to log in (Y/n)? yIf you say yes in the above screen, your browser will then prompt you with a standard Google oauth screen where you'll need to click Allow. Now go back to Terminal and pick a 'Project' (when you set up billing the default was created for you):
Pick cloud project to use: [1] seventh-capsule-138123 [2] Create a new project Please enter numeric choice or text value (must exactly match list item): 1

Next, we're gonna' create a VM. There are several tables that lay out machine types. Let's start by listing any instances we might have:gcloud compute instances list
Listed 0 items.Note: If you have a lot of these you can use
--regexp
to filter them quickly. Then let's pick a machine type. A description of machine types can be found at https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/machine-types. And an image. Images can be seen using the compute command with images and then list, as follows: gcloud compute images list
Now, let's use that table from earlier and make a custom machine using an ubuntu uri, a –custom-cpu and a –custom-memory: gcloud compute instances create krypted1 –image https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/ubuntu-os-cloud/global/images/ubuntu-1610-yakkety-v20170502 –custom-cpu 2 –custom-memory 5 You'll then see that your VM is up, running, and… has an IP: Created [https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/seventh-capsule-138523/zones/us-central1-a/instances/krypted1]. NAME ZONE MACHINE_TYPE PREEMPTIBLE INTERNAL_IP EXTERNAL_IP STATUS krypted1 us-central1-a custom (2 vCPU, 5.00 GiB) 10.128.0.2 104.154.169.65 RUNNINGNow let's SSH in:
gcloud compute ssh krypted1
This creates ssh keys, adds you to the hosts and SSH's you into a machine. So viola. You're done. Oh wait, you don't want to leave it running forever. After all, you're paying by the minute… So let's list your instances: gcloud compute instances list
Then let's stop the one we just created: gcloud compute instances stop krypted1
Download Gcloud Mac Os
And if you'd like, tear it down:gcloud compute instances delete krypted1
