  1. Cloud Build API

2. Cloud Run API

Step 2: create service account on the GCP project

  • Grant Permissions

  • Generate KEY

  • Download Key as json file

Step 3: Update workflow of GitHub action

  • Add Action Secret in the repo

  1. GCP_PROJECT

2. GCP_APPLICATION - Name of the service you want

3. GCP_EMAIL

4. GCP_CREDENTIALS

a. Open the Service Account JSON key in VS code

b. select - all (ctrl +a / cmd + a)

c. Execute Global Command (ctrl + shift + p / cmd + shift + p) -> "Join Lines"

Add to GitHub action secret as

  • Create custom workflow in GitHub action

  • Set the Scripts according branch you want to configure deployment for



name: cloudrun-deploy

on:

push:

branches:

- main

jobs:

setup-build-publish-deploy:

name: Setup, Build, Publish, and Deploy

runs-on: ubuntu-latest

steps:

- name: Checkout

uses: actions/checkout@master


# Setup gcloud CLI

- uses: google-github-actions/setup-gcloud@v0.6.0

with:

service_account_email: ${{ secrets.GCP_EMAIL }}

service_account_key: ${{ secrets.GCP_CREDENTIALS }}

export_default_credentials: true


# Configure Docker with Credentials

- name: Configure Docker

run: |

gcloud auth configure-docker


# Build the Docker image

- name: Build & Publish

run: |

gcloud config set project ${{ secrets.GCP_PROJECT }}

gcloud builds submit --tag gcr.io/${{ secrets.GCP_PROJECT }}/${{ secrets.GCP_APPLICATION }}

gcloud config set run/region us-central1


# Deploy the Docker image to the GKE cluster

- name: Deploy

run: |

gcloud run deploy ${{ secrets.GCP_APPLICATION }} --image gcr.io/${{ secrets.GCP_PROJECT }}/${{ secrets.GCP_APPLICATION }} \

--platform managed \

--allow-unauthenticated \

--memory=1Gi \

--region asia-south2

I love finding patterns and concluding insights out of it. After working as Employee, a Consultant, a Freelancer I figured out mostly we start our project or a module or microservice either by copying an existing code or base repositories from GitHub lets say. And then spend a lot of time on customising it, analysing pitfalls, making it work so that I can start wrinting business logic for the work. So, I started POC-ing FAB Builder so that I get a trailered project targetted to my requirements and on which I can start wrinting business logic within few mins. This makes my life easy and my clients get a better quality products which are easy to modify and easy to maintain.
