    • --machine-type
    • --timeout
    • --tag / -t

      • Supports only commas to separate multiple key-value pairs.
      • --substitution / -s is provided instead and recommended. It allows be specified multiple times.
• More robust behaviors.
  • Create source archives in the same way with docker.
  • Retries operations.

Usage

Using docker is recommended.

Using service account

$ docker run --rm \
    -v $(pwd):/workspace \
    -v /path/to/credentials.json:/credentials.json \
    -e GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=/credentials.json \
    ikedam/cloudbuild .

Using user credentials

$ docker run -ti --name gcloud-config google/cloud-sdk:alpine gcloud auth application-default login
$ docker run --rm \
    --volumes-from gcloud-config \
    -v "$(pwd)":/workspace \
    ikedam/cloudbuild .

Diagnose

You can get stack dump with SIGUSR1 signal without terminating the container:

$ docker kill -s USR1 "$(docker ps -q --filter ancestor=ikedam/cloudbuild)"

You can get stack dump and terminate the container with ABRT signal:

$ docker kill -s ABRT "$(docker ps -q --filter ancestor=ikedam/cloudbuild)"

You cannot get stack dump with HUP, INT or TERM signals (cloudbuild exit silengly for those signals), but you can have cloudbuild to print stack dumps also for those signals by passing --always-dump option.
