Methods

__construct

Constructor.

Parameters
Name	Description
options	array Optional. Options for configuring the service API wrapper.
↳ apiEndpoint	string The address of the API remote host. May optionally include the port, formatted as "
↳ credentials	string|array|FetchAuthTokenInterface|CredentialsWrapper The credentials to be used by the client to authorize API calls. This option accepts either a path to a credentials file, or a decoded credentials file as a PHP array. Advanced usage: In addition, this option can also accept a pre-constructed Google\Auth\FetchAuthTokenInterface object or Google\ApiCore\CredentialsWrapper object. Note that when one of these objects are provided, any settings in $credentialsConfig will be ignored.
↳ credentialsConfig	array Options used to configure credentials, including auth token caching, for the client. For a full list of supporting configuration options, see Google\ApiCore\CredentialsWrapper::build() .
↳ disableRetries	bool Determines whether or not retries defined by the client configuration should be disabled. Defaults to false.
↳ clientConfig	string|array Client method configuration, including retry settings. This option can be either a path to a JSON file, or a PHP array containing the decoded JSON data. By default this settings points to the default client config file, which is provided in the resources folder.
↳ transport	string|TransportInterface The transport used for executing network requests. May be either the string rest or grpc. Defaults to grpc if gRPC support is detected on the system. Advanced usage: Additionally, it is possible to pass in an already instantiated Google\ApiCore\Transport\TransportInterface object. Note that when this object is provided, any settings in $transportConfig, and any $apiEndpoint setting, will be ignored.
↳ transportConfig	array Configuration options that will be used to construct the transport. Options for each supported transport type should be passed in a key for that transport. For example: $transportConfig = [ 'grpc' => [...], 'rest' => [...], ]; See the Google\ApiCore\Transport\GrpcTransport::build() and Google\ApiCore\Transport\RestTransport::build() methods for the supported options.
↳ clientCertSource	callable A callable which returns the client cert as a string. This can be used to provide a certificate and private key to the transport layer for mTLS.

partialUpdateCluster

Partially updates a cluster within a project. This method is the preferred way to update a Cluster.

To enable and update autoscaling, set cluster_config.cluster_autoscaling_config. When autoscaling is enabled, serve_nodes is treated as an OUTPUT_ONLY field, meaning that updates to it are ignored. Note that an update cannot simultaneously set serve_nodes to non-zero and cluster_config.cluster_autoscaling_config to non-empty, and also specify both in the update_mask.

To disable autoscaling, clear cluster_config.cluster_autoscaling_config, and explicitly set a serve_node count via the update_mask.
