DESCRIPTION
(BETA) Create a build trigger from a Cloud Source Repository.
EXAMPLES
To create a push trigger for all branches:
gcloudbetabuildstriggerscreatecloud-source-repositories--name="my-trigger"--service-account="projects/my-project/serviceAccounts/my-byosa@my-project.iam.gserviceaccount.com"--repo="my-repo"--branch-pattern=".*"--build-config="cloudbuild.yaml"
REQUIRED FLAGS
Exactly one of these must be specified:
--trigger-config=PATH
Path to Build Trigger config file (JSON or YAML format). For more details, seehttps://cloud.google.com/cloud-build/docs/api/reference/rest/v1/projects.triggers#BuildTrigger
Or at least one of these can be specified:
Flag based trigger configuration
Repo resource - Cloud Source Repository. This represents a Cloud resource.(NOTE) Some attributes are not given arguments in this group but can be set inother ways.

To set theproject attribute:

  • provide the argument--repo on the command line with a fullyspecified name;
  • set the propertycore/project.

This must be specified.

--repo=REPO
ID of the repo or fully qualified identifier for the repo.

To set therepo attribute:

  • provide the argument--repo on the command line.
--description=DESCRIPTION
Build trigger description.
--ignored-files=[GLOB,…]
Glob filter. Changes only affecting ignored files won't trigger builds.
--included-files=[GLOB,…]
Glob filter. Changes affecting at least one included file will trigger builds.
--name=NAME
Build trigger name.
--region=REGION
The region of the Cloud Build Service to use. Must be set to a supported regionname (e.g.us-central1). If unset,builds/region,which is the default region to use when working with Cloud Build resources, isused. If builds/region is unset, region is set toglobal. Note:Region must be specified in 2nd gen repo;global is not supported.
--[no-]require-approval
Require manual approval for triggered builds. Use--require-approval to enable and--no-require-approvalto disable.
--service-account=SERVICE_ACCOUNT
The service account used for all user-controlled operations includingUpdateBuildTrigger, RunBuildTrigger, CreateBuild, and CancelBuild. If no serviceaccount is set, then the standard Cloud Build service account([PROJECT_NUM]@system.gserviceaccount.com) is used instead. Format:projects/{PROJECT_ID}/serviceAccounts/{ACCOUNT_ID_OR_EMAIL}.
--substitutions=[KEY=VALUE,…]
Parameters to be substituted in the build specification. For example:
gcloudbetabuildstriggerscreatecloud-source-repositories--substitutions_FAVORITE_COLOR=blue,_NUM_CANDIES=10

This will result in a build where every occurrence of${_FAVORITE_COLOR} in certain fields is replaced by "blue", andsimilarly for${_NUM_CANDIES} and "10".

Substitutions can be applied to user-defined variables (starting with anunderscore) and to the following built-in variables: REPO_NAME, BRANCH_NAME,TAG_NAME, REVISION_ID, COMMIT_SHA, SHORT_SHA.

For more details, see:https://cloud.google.com/build/docs/configuring-builds/substitute-variable-values

Exactly one of these must be specified:
--branch-pattern=REGEX
A regular expression specifying which git branches to match.

This pattern is used as a regular expression search for any incoming pushes. Forexample, --branch-pattern=foo will match "foo", "foobar", and "barfoo". Eventson a branch that does not match will be ignored.

The syntax of the regular expressions accepted is the syntax accepted by RE2 anddescribed athttps://github.com/google/re2/wiki/Syntax.

--tag-pattern=REGEX
A regular expression specifying which git tags to match.

This pattern is used as a regular expression search for any incoming pushes. Forexample, --tag-pattern=foo will match "foo", "foobar", and "barfoo". Events on atag that does not match will be ignored.

The syntax of the regular expressions accepted is the syntax accepted by RE2 anddescribed athttps://github.com/google/re2/wiki/Syntax.

Exactly one of these must be specified:
--build-config=PATH
Path to a YAML or JSON file containing the build configuration in therepository.

For more details, see:https://cloud.google.com/cloud-build/docs/build-config

--inline-config=PATH
Local path to a YAML or JSON file containing a build configuration.
Or at least one of these can be specified:
Dockerfile build configuration flags
--dockerfile=DOCKERFILE
Path of Dockerfile to use for builds in the repository.

If specified, a build config will be generated to run docker build using thespecified file.

The filename is relative to the Dockerfile directory.

This flag argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this groupare specified.

--dockerfile-dir=DOCKERFILE_DIR; default="/"
Location of the directory containing the Dockerfile in the repository.

The directory will also be used as the Docker build context.

--dockerfile-image=DOCKERFILE_IMAGE
Docker image name to build.

If not specified, gcr.io/PROJECT/github.com/REPO_OWNER/REPO_NAME:$COMMIT_SHAwill be used.

Use a build configuration (cloudbuild.yaml) file for building multiple images ina single trigger.
