gcloud alpha ml vision product-search images create

NAME
gcloud alpha ml vision product-search images create - create a reference image
SYNOPSIS
gcloud alpha ml vision product-search images create(REFERENCE_IMAGE :--location=LOCATION--product=PRODUCT)--storage-location=STORAGE_LOCATION[--bounding-polygon=[normalized-vertices=NORMALIZED-VERTICES],[vertices=VERTICES]][GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG]
DESCRIPTION
(ALPHA) create a reference image.
EXAMPLES
To create a reference image 'my-image' in product 'my-product' in the location'us-east1' from image of 'gs://my-bucket/image.jpg' with two bounding polygons,run:
gcloudalphamlvisionproduct-searchimagescreatemy-image--location=my-location--product=my-product--storage-location=gs://my-bucket/image.jpg--flags-file=my-flags.yaml

The content of 'my-flags.yaml' is as following:

---bounding-polygon:vertices:-{x:0,y:0}-{x:0,y:10}-{x:10,y:0}-{x:10,y:10}---bounding-polygon:normalized-vertices:-{x:0.8,y:0.8}-{x:0.8,y:1}-{x:1,y:0.8}-{x:1,y:1}
POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
Reference image resource - Reference image to create. The arguments in thisgroup can be used to specify the attributes of this resource. (NOTE) Someattributes are not given arguments in this group but can be set in other ways.

To set theproject attribute:

  • provide the argumentreference_image on the command line with afully specified name;
  • provide the argument--project on the command line;
  • set the propertycore/project.

This must be specified.

REFERENCE_IMAGE
ID of the reference image or fully qualified identifier for the reference image.

To set thereference_image attribute:

  • provide the argumentreference_image on the command line.

This positional argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in thisgroup are specified.

--location=LOCATION
The location of reference image.

To set thelocation attribute:

  • provide the argumentreference_image on the command line with afully specified name;
  • provide the argument--location on the command line.
--product=PRODUCT
The ID of product.

To set theproduct attribute:

  • provide the argumentreference_image on the command line with afully specified name;
  • provide the argument--product on the command line.
REQUIRED FLAGS
--storage-location=STORAGE_LOCATION
The Google Cloud Storage URI of the reference image. The URI must start with'gs://'.
OPTIONAL FLAGS
--bounding-polygon=[normalized-vertices=NORMALIZED-VERTICES],[vertices=VERTICES]
Bounding polygon around the areas of interest in the reference image. If thisfield is empty, the system will try to detect regions of interest. This flag isrepeatable to specify multiple bounding polygons. At most 10 bounding polygonswill be used.

A bounding polygon can be specified by a list of vertices or normalized verticesor both. A vertex (x, y) represents a 2D point in the image. x, y are integersand are in the same scale as the original image. The normalized vertexcoordinates are relative to original image and range from 0 to 1.

Because of the complexity of this flag, it should be specified with the--flags-file. See $gcloud topic flags-file fordetails. See the examples section for how to use--bounding-polygonin--flags-file.

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.
