Quickstart

Before you begin

1. Select or create a Cloud Platform project.
2. Enable billing for your project.
3. Enable the Kubernetes Engine Cluster Manager API API.
4. Set up authentication with a service account so you can access the API from your local workstation.

Installing the client library

npm install @google-cloud/container

Using the client library

  const container = require('@google-cloud/container');

  // Create the Cluster Manager Client
  const client = new container.v1.ClusterManagerClient();

  async function quickstart() {
    const zone = 'us-central1-a';
    const projectId = await client.getProjectId();
    const request = {
      projectId: projectId,
      zone: zone,
    };

    const [response] = await client.listClusters(request);
    console.log('Clusters:');
    console.log(response);
  }
  quickstart();

Relationship to Kubernetes

@google-cloud/container provides a high level API for creating and managing Google Kubernetes Engine clusters on Google Cloud.

To run commands against the clusters created, you will need to use the Kubernetes API (and the associated kubectl command-line interface).

Samples

Samples are in the samples/ directory. The samples' README.md has instructions for running the samples.
