- NAME
- gcloud alpha composer environments storage data export - export data from an environment into local storage or Cloud Storage
- SYNOPSIS
gcloud alpha composer environments storage data export--destination=DESTINATION(--environment=ENVIRONMENT:--location=LOCATION)[--source=SOURCE][GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG …]
- DESCRIPTION
(ALPHA)If the SOURCE is a directory, it and its contents are areexported recursively. If no SOURCE is provided, the entire contents of theenvironment's data directory will be exported. Colliding files in theDESTINATION will be overwritten. If a file exists in the DESTINATION but thereis no corresponding file to overwrite it, it is untouched.- EXAMPLES
- Suppose the environment
myenv's Cloud Storage bucket has thefollowing structure:gs://the-bucket|+--data|||+--file1.txt|+--file2.txt|||+--subdir1|||||+--file3.txt||+--file4.txt
And the local directory '/foo' has the following structure:
/foo|+--file1.txt+--fileX.txt|||+--subdir1|||||+--file3.txt||+--fileY.txt
The following command:
gcloudalphacomposerenvironmentsstoragedataexportmyenv--destination=/foo
would result in the following structure in the local '/foo' directory:
/foo|+--file1.txt+--file2.txt+--fileX.txt|||+--subdir1|||||+--file3.txt||+--file4.txt||+--fileY.txt
The local files '/foo/file1.txt' and '/foo/subdir1/file3.txt' will beoverwritten with the contents of the corresponding files in the Cloud Storagebucket.
If instead we had run
gcloudalphacomposerenvironmentsstoragedataexportmyenv--source=subdir1/file3.txt--destination=/foo
the resulting local directory structure would be the following:
/foo|+--file1.txt+--file3.txt+--fileX.txt|||+--subdir1|||||+--file3.txt||+--fileY.txt
No local files would be overwritten since'gs://the-bucket/dags/subdir1/file3.txt' was written to '/foo/file3.txt' insteadof 'foo/subdir1/file3.txt'.
