SYNOPSIS
gcloud design-center spaces application-templates create(APPLICATION_TEMPLATE :--location=LOCATION--space=SPACE)[--application-parameters=[key=KEY],[value=VALUE]][--composition-type=COMPOSITION_TYPE][--description=DESCRIPTION][--display-name=DISPLAY_NAME][--root-input-variables=[componentUri=COMPONENTURI],[variable=VARIABLE]][--root-output-variables=[componentUri=COMPONENTURI],[variable=VARIABLE]][GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG]
DESCRIPTION
Create an application template.
EXAMPLES
To create the application templatemy-app-template in spacemy-space, projectmy-project and locationus-central1, run:
gclouddesign-centerspacesapplication-templatescreatemy-app-template--space=my-space--project=my-project--location=us-central1

Or run:

gclouddesign-centerspacesapplication-templatescreateprojects/my-project/locations/us-central1/spaces/my-space/applicationTemplates/my-app-template

To create the application templatemy-app-template with a displayname ofMy App Template and description ofMy app templatedescription, run:

gclouddesign-centerspacesapplication-templatescreatemy-app-template--space=my-space--project=my-project--location=us-central1--display-name="My App Template"--description="My app template description"

To create the application templatemy-app-template with applicationparameters key-value pair ofproject_id:my-project andregion:us-central1, run the following shorthand example:

gclouddesign-centerspacesapplication-templatescreatemy-app-template--space=my-space--project=my-project--location=us-central1--application-parameters=key=project_id,value=my-project--application-parameters=key=region,value=us-central1

Or run the following JSON example:

gclouddesign-centerspacesapplication-templatescreatemy-app-template--space=my-space--project=my-project--location=us-central1--application-parameters='[{"key": "project_id", "value": "my-project"}, {"key": "region", "value": "us-central1"}]'

Or create a YAML or JSON file with the parameters and run the following fileexample:

gclouddesign-centerspacesapplication-templatescreatemy-app-template--space=my-space--project=my-project--location=us-central1--application-parameters=my-parameters.yaml
