gcloud app deploy

NAME
gcloud app deploy - deploy the local code and/or configuration of your app to App Engine
SYNOPSIS
gcloud app deploy [DEPLOYABLES …] [--appyaml=APPYAML] [--bucket=BUCKET] [--no-cache] [--ignore-file=IGNORE_FILE] [--image-url=IMAGE_URL] [--no-promote] [--service-account=SERVICE_ACCOUNT] [--no-stop-previous-version] [--version=VERSION, -v VERSION] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG]
DESCRIPTION
This command is used to deploy both code and configuration to the App Engine server. As an input it takes one or more DEPLOYABLES that should be uploaded. A DEPLOYABLE can be a service's .yaml file or a configuration's .yaml file (for more information about configuration files specific to your App Engine environment, refer to https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/python/configuration-files or https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/flexible/python/configuration-files). Note, for Java8 Standard apps or Java11/17 Standard apps using bundled services, you must add the path to the appengine-web.xml file inside the WEB-INF directory. gcloud app deploy skips files specified in the .gcloudignore file (see gcloud topic gcloudignore for more information). For Java11 Standard, you can either use the yaml file, a Maven pom.xml, or a Gradle build.gradle. Alternatively, if the application is a single self-contained jar, you can give the path to the jar and a simple service configuration will be generated. You can deploy Java11 Maven source projects by specifying the location of your project's pom.xml file, and it will be built and deployed using App Engine Buildpacks.
EXAMPLES
To deploy a single service, run:
gcloud app deploy ~/my_app/app.yaml

To deploy an App Engine Standard Java8 service or a Java11 service using bundled services, run:

gcloud app deploy ~/my_app/WEB-INF/appengine-web.xml

To deploy an App Engine Standard Java11 single jar, run:

gcloud app deploy ~/my_app/my_jar.jar

To deploy an App Engine Standard Java11 Maven source project, run:

gcloud app deploy ~/my_app/pom.xml

To deploy an App Engine Standard Java11 Gradle source project, run:

gcloud app deploy ~/my_app/build.gradle

By default, the service is deployed to the current project configured via:

gcloud config set core/project PROJECT

To override this value for a single deployment, use the --project flag:

gcloud app deploy ~/my_app/app.yaml --project=PROJECT

To deploy multiple services, run:

gcloud app deploy ~/my_app/app.yaml ~/my_app/another_service.yaml

To change the default --promote behavior for your current environment, run:

gcloud config set app/promote_by_default false

To deploy a service that will run as a service account, run:

gcloud app deploy ~/my_app/app.yaml --service-account=SERVICE_ACCOUNT
POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
[DEPLOYABLES …]
The yaml files for the services or configurations you want to deploy. If not given, defaults to app.yaml in the current directory. If that is not found, attempts to automatically generate necessary configuration files (such as app.yaml) in the current directory.
FLAGS
--appyaml=APPYAML
Deploy with a specific app.yaml that will replace the one defined in the DEPLOYABLE.
--bucket=BUCKET
The Google Cloud Storage bucket used to stage files associated with the deployment. If this argument is not specified, the application's default code bucket is used.
--cache
Enable caching mechanisms involved in the deployment process, particularly in the build step. Enabled by default, use --no-cache to disable.
--ignore-file=IGNORE_FILE
Override the .gcloudignore file and use the specified file instead.
--image-url=IMAGE_URL
(App Engine flexible environment only.) Deploy with a specific Docker image. Docker url must be from one of the valid Container Registry hostnames.
--promote
Promote the deployed version to receive all traffic. Overrides the default app/promote_by_default property value for this command invocation. Use --no-promote to disable.
--service-account=SERVICE_ACCOUNT
The service account that this deployed version will run as. If this argument is not specified, the App Engine default service account will be used for your current deployed version.
--stop-previous-version
Stop the previously running version when deploying a new version that receives all traffic.

Note that if the version is running on an instance of an auto-scaled service in the App Engine Standard environment, using --stop-previous-version will not work and the previous version will continue to run because auto-scaled service instances are always running.

Overrides the default app/stop_previous_version property value for this command invocation. Use --no-stop-previous-version to disable.

--version=VERSION, -v VERSION
The version of the app that will be created or replaced by this deployment. If you do not specify a version, one will be generated for you.
GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS
These flags are available to all commands: --access-token-file, --account, --billing-project, --configuration, --flags-file, --flatten, --format, --help, --impersonate-service-account, --log-http, --project, --quiet, --trace-token, --user-output-enabled, --verbosity.

Run $ gcloud help for details.
