setup-gcloud/auth

GitHub Action for Google Cloud Auth

The GitHub Actions for Google Cloud Platform and wraps the gcloud SDK for authorizing a service account. This is a thin wrapper around the gcloud auth command, facilitating providing credentials securely using Secrets.

Usage

Example Workflow file

An example workflow to authenticate with Google Cloud Platform:

workflow "Run gcloud Login" {
  on = "push"
  resolves = "Load credentials"
}

action "Setup Google Cloud" {
  uses = "actions/gcloud/auth@master"
  secrets = ["GCLOUD_AUTH"]
}

Subsequent actions in the workflow will then be able to use gcloud as that user (see cli for examples).

Secrets

• GCLOUD_AUTH Required Base64 encoded service account key exported as JSON
  • For information about service accout keys please see the Google Cloud docs
  • For information about using Credentials in Actions please see the Actions docs.

Example on encoding from a terminal : base64 ~/<account_id>.json
