DESCRIPTION
(ALPHA) Create or update a Google Cloud Function.
EXAMPLES
To deploy a function that is triggered by write events on the document /messages/{pushId}, run:
gcloud alpha functions deploy my_function --runtime=python37 --trigger-event=providers/cloud.firestore/eventTypes/document.write --trigger-resource=projects/project_id/databases/(default)/documents/messages/{pushId}

See https://cloud.google.com/functions/docs/calling for more details of using other types of resource as triggers.

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
Function resource - The Cloud function name to deploy. The arguments in this group can be used to specify the attributes of this resource. (NOTE) Some attributes are not given arguments in this group but can be set in other ways.

To set the project attribute:

  • provide the argument NAME on the command line with a fully specified name;
  • provide the argument --project on the command line;
  • set the property core/project.

This must be specified.

NAME
ID of the function or fully qualified identifier for the function.

To set the function attribute:

  • provide the argument NAME on the command line.

This positional argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

--region=REGION
The Cloud region for the function. Overrides the default functions/region property value for this command invocation.

To set the region attribute:

  • provide the argument NAME on the command line with a fully specified name;
  • provide the argument --region on the command line;
  • set the property functions/region.
FLAGS
--[no-]allow-unauthenticated
If set, makes this a public function. This will allow all callers, without checking authentication. Use --allow-unauthenticated to enable and --no-allow-unauthenticated to disable.
--buildpack-stack=BUILDPACK_STACK
Specifies one of the Google provided buildpack stacks.
--concurrency=CONCURRENCY
Set the maximum number of concurrent requests allowed per container instance. Leave concurrency unspecified to receive the server default value.
--docker-registry=DOCKER_REGISTRY
Docker Registry to use for storing the function's Docker images. The option artifact-registry is used by default.

Warning: Artifact Registry and Container Registry have different image storage costs. For more details, please see https://cloud.google.com/functions/pricing#deployment_costs.

DOCKER_REGISTRY must be one of: artifact-registry, container-registry.

--egress-settings=EGRESS_SETTINGS
Egress settings controls what traffic is diverted through the VPC Access Connector resource. By default private-ranges-only will be used. EGRESS_SETTINGS must be one of: private-ranges-only, all.
--entry-point=ENTRY_POINT
Name of a Google Cloud Function (as defined in source code) that will be executed. Defaults to the resource name suffix (ID of the function), if not specified.
--gen2
If enabled, this command will use Cloud Functions (Second generation). If disabled with --no-gen2, Cloud Functions (First generation) will be used. If not specified, the value of this flag will be taken from the functions/gen2 configuration property. If the functions/gen2 configuration property is not set, defaults to looking up the given function and using its generation.
--ignore-file=IGNORE_FILE
Override the .gcloudignore file in the source directory and use the specified file instead. By default, the source directory is your current directory. Note that it could be changed by the --source flag, in which case your .gcloudignore file will be searched in the overridden directory. For example, --ignore-file=.mygcloudignore combined with --source=./mydir would point to ./mydir/.mygcloudignore
--ingress-settings=INGRESS_SETTINGS
Ingress settings controls what traffic can reach the function. By default all will be used. INGRESS_SETTINGS must be one of: all, internal-only, internal-and-gclb.
--retry
If specified, then the function will be retried in case of a failure.
--run-service-account=RUN_SERVICE_ACCOUNT
The email address of the IAM service account associated with the Cloud Run service for the function. The service account represents the identity of the running function, and determines what permissions the function has.

If not provided, the function will use the project's default service account for Compute Engine.

--runtime=RUNTIME
Runtime in which to run the function.

Required when deploying a new function; optional when updating an existing function.

For a list of available runtimes, run gcloud functions runtimes list.

--runtime-update-policy=RUNTIME_UPDATE_POLICY
Runtime update policy for the function being deployed. The option automatic is used by default. RUNTIME_UPDATE_POLICY must be one of: automatic, on-deploy.
--security-level=SECURITY_LEVEL; default="secure-always"
Security level controls whether a function's URL supports HTTPS only or both HTTP and HTTPS. By default, secure-always will be used, meaning only HTTPS is supported. SECURITY_LEVEL must be one of: secure-always, secure-optional.
--serve-all-traffic-latest-revision
If specified, latest function revision will be served all traffic.
--service-account=SERVICE_ACCOUNT
The email address of the IAM service account associated with the function at runtime. The service account represents the identity of the running function, and determines what permissions the function has.

If not provided, the function will use the project's default service account.

--source=SOURCE
Location of source code to deploy.

Location of the source can be one of the following three options:

  • Source code in Google Cloud Storage (must be a .zip archive),
  • Reference to source repository or,
  • Local filesystem path (root directory of function source).

Note that, depending on your runtime type, Cloud Functions will look for files with specific names for deployable functions. For Node.js, these filenames are index.js or function.js. For Python, this is main.py.

If you do not specify the --source flag:

  • The current directory will be used for new function deployments.
  • If the function was previously deployed using a local filesystem path, then the function's source code will be updated using the current directory.
  • If the function was previously deployed using a Google Cloud Storage location or a source repository, then the function's source code will not be updated.

The value of the flag will be interpreted as a Cloud Storage location, if it starts with gs://.

The value will be interpreted as a reference to a source repository, if it starts with https://.

Otherwise, it will be interpreted as the local filesystem path. When deploying source from the local filesystem, this command skips files specified in the .gcloudignore file (see gcloud topic gcloudignore for more information). If the .gcloudignore file doesn't exist, the command will try to create it.

The minimal source repository URL is: https://source.developers.google.com/projects/${PROJECT}/repos/${REPO}

By using the URL above, sources from the root directory of the repository on the revision tagged master will be used.

If you want to deploy from a revision different from master, append one of the following three sources to the URL:

  • /revisions/${REVISION},
  • /moveable-aliases/${MOVEABLE_ALIAS},
  • /fixed-aliases/${FIXED_ALIAS}.

If you'd like to deploy sources from a directory different from the root, you must specify a revision, a moveable alias, or a fixed alias, as above, and append /paths/${PATH_TO_SOURCES_DIRECTORY} to the URL.

Overall, the URL should match the following regular expression:

^https://source\.developers\.google\.com/projects/
(?<accountId>[^/]+)/repos/(?<repoName>[^/]+)
(((/revisions/(?<commit>[^/]+))|(/moveable-aliases/(?<branch>[^/]+))|
(/fixed-aliases/(?<tag>[^/]+)))(/paths/(?<path>.*))?)?$

An example of a validly formatted source repository URL is:

https://source.developers.google.com/projects/123456789/repos/testrepo/
moveable-aliases/alternate-branch/paths/path-to=source
--stage-bucket=STAGE_BUCKET
When deploying a function from a local directory, this flag's value is the name of the Google Cloud Storage bucket in which source code will be stored. Note that if you set the --stage-bucket flag when deploying a function, you will need to specify --source or --stage-bucket in subsequent deployments to update your source code. To use this flag successfully, the account in use must have permissions to write to this bucket. For help granting access, refer to this guide: https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/access-control/
--timeout=TIMEOUT
The function execution timeout, e.g. 30s for 30 seconds. Defaults to original value for existing function or 60 seconds for new functions.

For GCF 1st gen functions, cannot be more than 540s.

For GCF 2nd gen functions, cannot be more than 3600s.

See $ gcloud topic datetimes for information on duration formats.

--trigger-location=TRIGGER_LOCATION
The location of the trigger, which must be a region or multi-region where the relevant events originate.
--trigger-service-account=TRIGGER_SERVICE_ACCOUNT
The email address of the IAM service account associated with the Eventarc trigger for the function. This is used for authenticated invocation.

If not provided, the function will use the project's default service account for Compute Engine.

--update-labels=[KEY=VALUE,…]
List of label KEY=VALUE pairs to update. If a label exists, its value is modified. Otherwise, a new label is created.

Keys must start with a lowercase character and contain only hyphens (-), underscores (_), lowercase characters, and numbers. Values must contain only hyphens (-), underscores (_), lowercase characters, and numbers.

Label keys starting with deployment are reserved for use by deployment tools and cannot be specified manually.

At most one of these can be specified:
--binary-authorization=BINARY_AUTHORIZATION
Name of the Binary Authorization policy that the function image should be checked against when deploying to Cloud Run.

Example: default

The flag is only applicable to 2nd gen functions.

--clear-binary-authorization
Clears the Binary Authorization policy field.
At most one of these can be specified:
--build-env-vars-file=FILE_PATH
Path to a local YAML file with definitions for all build environment variables. All existing build environment variables will be removed before the new build environment variables are added.
--clear-build-env-vars
Remove all build environment variables.
--set-build-env-vars=[KEY=VALUE,…]
List of key-value pairs to set as build environment variables. All existing build environment variables will be removed first.
Only --update-build-env-vars and --remove-build-env-vars can be used together. If both are specified, --remove-build-env-vars will be applied first.
--remove-build-env-vars=[KEY,…]
List of build environment variables to be removed.
--update-build-env-vars=[KEY=VALUE,…]
List of key-value pairs to set as build environment variables.
At most one of these can be specified:
--build-service-account=BUILD_SERVICE_ACCOUNT
IAM service account whose credentials will be used for the build step. Must be of the format projects/${PROJECT_ID}/serviceAccounts/${ACCOUNT_EMAIL_ADDRESS}.

If not provided, the function will use the project's default service account for Cloud Build.

--clear-build-service-account
Clears the build service account field.
At most one of these can be specified:
--build-worker-pool=BUILD_WORKER_POOL
Name of the Cloud Build Custom Worker Pool that should be used to build the function. The format of this field is projects/${PROJECT}/locations/${LOCATION}/workerPools/${WORKERPOOL} where ${PROJECT} is the project id and ${LOCATION} is the location where the worker pool is defined and ${WORKERPOOL} is the short name of the worker pool.
--clear-build-worker-pool
Clears the Cloud Build Custom Worker Pool field.
At most one of these can be specified:
--clear-docker-repository
Clears the Docker repository configuration of the function.
--docker-repository=DOCKER_REPOSITORY
Sets the Docker repository to be used for storing the Cloud Function's Docker images while the function is being deployed. DOCKER_REPOSITORY must be an Artifact Registry Docker repository present in the same project and location as the Cloud Function.

The repository name should match one of these patterns:

  • projects/${PROJECT}/locations/${LOCATION}/repositories/${REPOSITORY},
  • {LOCATION}-docker.pkg.dev/{PROJECT}/{REPOSITORY}.

where ${PROJECT} is the project, ${LOCATION} is the location of the repository and ${REPOSITORY} is a valid repository ID.

At most one of these can be specified:
--clear-env-vars
Remove all environment variables.
--env-vars-file=FILE_PATH
Path to a local YAML file with definitions for all environment variables. All existing environment variables will be removed before the new environment variables are added.
--set-env-vars=[KEY=VALUE,…]
List of key-value pairs to set as environment variables. All existing environment variables will be removed first.

At most one of these can be specified:
--clear-kms-key
Clears the KMS crypto key used to encrypt the function.
--kms-key=KMS_KEY
Sets the user managed KMS crypto key used to encrypt the Cloud Function and its resources.

The KMS crypto key name should match the pattern projects/${PROJECT}/locations/${LOCATION}/keyRings/${KEYRING}/cryptoKeys/${CRYPTOKEY} where ${PROJECT} is the project, ${LOCATION} is the location of the key ring, and ${KEYRING} is the key ring that contains the ${CRYPTOKEY} crypto key.

If this flag is set, then a Docker repository created in Artifact Registry must be specified using the --docker-repository flag and the repository must be encrypted using the same KMS key.

At most one of these can be specified:
--clear-labels
Remove all labels. If --update-labels is also specified then --clear-labels is applied first.

For example, to remove all labels:

gcloud alpha functions deploy --clear-labels

To remove all existing labels and create two new labels, foo and baz:

gcloud alpha functions deploy --clear-labels --update-labels foo=bar,baz=qux
--remove-labels=[KEY,…]
List of label keys to remove. If a label does not exist it is silently ignored. If --update-labels is also specified then --update-labels is applied first.Label keys starting with deployment are reserved for use by deployment tools and cannot be specified manually.
At most one of these can be specified:
--clear-max-instances
Clears the maximum instances setting for the function.

If it's any 2nd gen function or a 1st gen HTTP function, this flag sets maximum instances to 0, which means there is no limit to maximum instances. If it's an event-driven 1st gen function, this flag sets maximum instances to 3000, which is the default value for 1st gen functions.

--max-instances=MAX_INSTANCES
Sets the maximum number of instances for the function. A function execution that would exceed max-instances times out.
At most one of these can be specified:
--clear-min-instances
Clears the minimum instances setting for the function.
--min-instances=MIN_INSTANCES
Sets the minimum number of instances for the function. This is helpful for reducing cold start times. Defaults to zero.
At most one of these can be specified:
--clear-secrets
Remove all secret environment variables and volumes.
--set-secrets=[SECRET_ENV_VAR=SECRET_VALUE_REF,/secret_path=SECRET_VALUE_REF,/mount_path:/secret_file_path=SECRET_VALUE_REF,…]
List of secret environment variables and secret volumes to configure. Existing secrets configuration will be overwritten.

You can reference a secret value referred to as SECRET_VALUE_REF in the help text in the following ways.

  • Use ${SECRET}:${VERSION} if you are referencing a secret in the same project, where ${SECRET} is the name of the secret in secret manager (not the full resource name) and ${VERSION} is the version of the secret which is either a positive integer or the label latest. For example, use SECRET_FOO:1 to reference version 1 of the secret SECRET_FOO which exists in the same project as the function.
  • Use projects/${PROJECT}/secrets/${SECRET}/versions/${VERSION} or projects/${PROJECT}/secrets/${SECRET}:${VERSION} to reference a secret version using the full resource name, where ${PROJECT} is either the project number (preferred) or the project ID of the project which contains the secret, ${SECRET} is the name of the secret in secret manager (not the full resource name) and ${VERSION} is the version of the secret which is either a positive integer or the label latest. For example, use projects/1234567890/secrets/SECRET_FOO/versions/1 or projects/project_id/secrets/SECRET_FOO/versions/1 to reference version 1 of the secret SECRET_FOO that exists in the project 1234567890 or project_id respectively. This format is useful when the secret exists in a different project.

To configure the secret as an environment variable, use SECRET_ENV_VAR=SECRET_VALUE_REF. To use the value of the secret, read the environment variable SECRET_ENV_VAR as you would normally do in the function's programming language.

We recommend using a numeric version for secret environment variables as any updates to the secret value are not reflected until new clones start.

To mount the secret within a volume use /secret_path=SECRET_VALUE_REF or /mount_path:/secret_file_path=SECRET_VALUE_REF. To use the value of the secret, read the file at /secret_path as you would normally do in the function's programming language.

For example, /etc/secrets/secret_foo=SECRET_FOO:latest or /etc/secrets:/secret_foo=SECRET_FOO:latest will make the value of the latest version of the secret SECRET_FOO available in a file secret_foo under the directory /etc/secrets. /etc/secrets will be considered as the mount path and will not be available for any other volume.

We recommend referencing the latest version when using secret volumes so that the secret's value changes are reflected immediately.

Only --update-secrets and --remove-secrets can be used together. If both are specified, then --remove-secrets will be applied first.
--remove-secrets=[SECRET_ENV_VAR,/secret_path,/mount_path:/secret_file_path,…]
List of secret environment variable names and secret paths to remove.

Existing secrets configuration of secret environment variable names and secret paths not specified in this list will be preserved.

To remove a secret environment variable, use the name of the environment variable SECRET_ENV_VAR.

To remove a file within a secret volume or the volume itself, use the secret path as the key (either /secret_path or /mount_path:/secret_file_path).

--update-secrets=[SECRET_ENV_VAR=SECRET_VALUE_REF,/secret_path=SECRET_VALUE_REF,/mount_path:/secret_file_path=SECRET_VALUE_REF,…]
List of secret environment variables and secret volumes to update. Existing secrets configuration not specified in this list will be preserved.
At most one of these can be specified:
--clear-vpc-connector
Clears the VPC connector field.
Connector resource - The VPC Access connector that the function can connect to. It can be either the fully-qualified URI, or the short name of the VPC Access connector resource. If the short name is used, the connector must belong to the same project. The format of this field is either projects/${PROJECT}/locations/${LOCATION}/connectors/${CONNECTOR} or ${CONNECTOR}, where ${CONNECTOR} is the short name of the VPC Access connector. This represents a Cloud resource. (NOTE) Some attributes are not given arguments in this group but can be set in other ways.

To set the project attribute:

  • provide the argument --vpc-connector on the command line with a fully specified name;
  • provide the argument --project on the command line;
  • set the property core/project.

To set the region attribute:

  • provide the argument --vpc-connector on the command line with a fully specified name;
  • provide the argument --region on the command line;
  • set the property functions/region.
--vpc-connector=VPC_CONNECTOR
ID of the connector or fully qualified identifier for the connector.

To set the connector attribute:

  • provide the argument --vpc-connector on the command line.
--memory=MEMORY
Limit on the amount of memory the function can use.

Allowed values for v1 are: 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, 1024MB, 2048MB, 4096MB, and 8192MB.

Allowed values for GCF 2nd gen are in the format: <number><unit> with allowed units of "k", "M", "G", "Ki", "Mi", "Gi". Ending 'b' or 'B' is allowed, but both are interpreted as bytes as opposed to bits.

Examples: 1000000K, 1000000Ki, 256Mb, 512M, 1024Mi, 2G, 4Gi.

By default, a new function is limited to 256MB of memory. When deploying an update to an existing function, the function keeps its old memory limit unless you specify this flag.

--cpu=CPU
The number of available CPUs to set. Only valid when --memory=MEMORY is specified.

Examples: .5, 2, 2.0, 2000m.

By default, a new function's available CPUs is determined based on its memory value.

When deploying an update that includes memory changes to an existing function, the function's available CPUs will be recalculated based on the new memory unless this flag is specified. When deploying an update that does not include memory changes to an existing function, the function's "available CPUs" setting will keep its old value unless you use this flag to change the setting.

If you don't specify a trigger when deploying an update to an existing function it will keep its current trigger. You must specify one of the following when deploying a new function:
  • --trigger-topic,
  • --trigger-bucket,
  • --trigger-http,
  • --trigger-event AND --trigger-resource,
  • --trigger-event-filters and optionally --trigger-event-filters-path-pattern.
At most one of these can be specified:
--trigger-bucket=TRIGGER_BUCKET
Google Cloud Storage bucket name. Trigger the function when an object is created or overwritten in the specified Cloud Storage bucket.
--trigger-http
Function will be assigned an endpoint, which you can view by using the describe command. Any HTTP request (of a supported type) to the endpoint will trigger function execution. Supported HTTP request types are: POST, PUT, GET, DELETE, and OPTIONS.
--trigger-topic=TRIGGER_TOPIC
Name of Pub/Sub topic. Every message published in this topic will trigger function execution with message contents passed as input data. Note that this flag does not accept the format of projects/PROJECT_ID/topics/TOPIC_ID. Use this flag to specify the final element TOPIC_ID. The PROJECT_ID will be read from the active configuration.
--trigger-event=EVENT_TYPE
Specifies which action should trigger the function. For a list of acceptable values, call gcloud functions event-types list.
--trigger-resource=RESOURCE
Specifies which resource from --trigger-event is being observed. E.g. if --trigger-event is providers/cloud.storage/eventTypes/object.change, --trigger-resource must be a bucket name. For a list of expected resources, call gcloud functions event-types list.
--trigger-event-filters=[ATTRIBUTE=VALUE,…]
The Eventarc matching criteria for the trigger. The criteria can be specified either as a single comma-separated argument or as multiple arguments. The filters must include the type attribute, as well as any other attributes that are expected for the chosen type.
--trigger-event-filters-path-pattern=[ATTRIBUTE=PATH_PATTERN,…]
The Eventarc matching criteria for the trigger in path pattern format. The criteria can be specified as a single comma-separated argument or as multiple arguments.

The provided attribute/value pair will be used with the match-path-pattern operator to configure the trigger, see https://cloud.google.com/eventarc/docs/reference/rest/v1/projects.locations.triggers#eventfilter and https://cloud.google.com/eventarc/docs/path-patterns for more details about on how to construct path patterns.

For example, to filter on events for Compute Engine VMs in a given zone: --trigger-event-filters-path-pattern=resourceName='/projects/*/zones/us-central1-a/instances/*'
