This page shows you how to deploy a service to Cloud Run using
Cloud Code for VS Code.
Deploying a service to Cloud Run
To deploy your service to Cloud Run:
Open the command palette (press Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+P or click View >
Command Palette) and then run the
Deploy to Cloud Run command.
In the Deploy to Cloud Run pane, set your Google Cloud project.
Select a preexisting service or create a new one.
If you're creating a new service, choose your platform preferences
under Deployment Platform, either
Cloud Run (fully managed) or
Knative serving. For help choosing the best option for
your development needs, see the
Choosing your platform guide.
If you selected Cloud Run (fully managed), choose
a region to deploy to. If you selected Knative serving,
configure the Kubernetes cluster information.
(Optional) To specify additional settings like service account, environment
variables, and SQL connections, expand the Advanced revision settings
section.
The following environment variables are automatically added to the running
containers:
Name
Description
Example
PORT
The port your HTTP server should listen on.
8080
K_SERVICE
The name of the Cloud Run service being run.
hello-world
K_REVISION
The name of the Cloud Run revision being run.
hello-world.1
K_CONFIGURATION
The name of the Cloud Run configuration that created the revision.
hello-world
Under Build environment, specify whether to build locally or using
Cloud Build.
Specify your builder (Docker or Buildpack) and its settings.
After you define your preferred settings, click Deploy.
Cloud Code for VS Code builds your image, pushes it to the registry, and
deploys your service to Cloud Run. Your service is now live!
View your running service by following the URL displayed in the webview.
You can also view details of your running service by clicking the
Show Detailed Logs button and looking through your verbose logs in the
output window.
After your session completes, right-click to use the following commands:
View Logs: Open the application logs of a specific
deployment with the Cloud Code Logs Explorer
Open URL: Open the application service URL of a specific
service in a web browser
If you've turned off watch mode in your launch configuration and you want to
make changes to your application and rebuild and redeploy the application,
click the Cloud Code status bar and then click
Turn on watch mode.
