- NAME
- gcloud alpha composer environments storage data import - import data from local storage or Cloud Storage into an environment
- SYNOPSIS
gcloud alpha composer environments storage data import--source=SOURCE(--environment=ENVIRONMENT:--location=LOCATION)[--destination=DESTINATION][GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG …]
- DESCRIPTION
(ALPHA)If the SOURCE is a directory, it and its contents areimported recursively. Colliding files in the environment's Cloud Storage bucketwill be overwritten. If a file exists in the bucket but is not present in theSOURCE, it is not removed.- EXAMPLES
- Suppose the '/foo' directory in the local filesystem has the followingstructure:
foo|+--subdir1|||+--file1.txt|+--file2.txt|+--subdir2|||+--file3.txt|+--file4.txt
And the environment
myenv's Cloud Storage bucket has the followingstructure:gs://the-bucket|+--data|||+--foo|||||+--subdir1|||||||+--bar.txt
The following command:
gcloudalphacomposerenvironmentsstoragedataimportmyenv--source=/foowould result in the following structure in
myenv's Cloud Storagebucket:gs://the-bucket|+--data|||+--foo|||||+--subdir1|||||||+--bar.txt|||+--file1.txt|||+--file2.txt|||||+--subdir2|||||||+--file3.txt|||+--file4.txt
If instead we had run
gcloudalphacomposerenvironmentsstoragedataimportmyenv--source=/foo--destination=bar
the resulting bucket structure would be the following:
gs://the-bucket|+--data|||+--foo|||||+--subdir1|||||||+--bar.txt|||+--bar|||||+--foo|||||||+--subdir1|||||||||+--file1.txt||||+--file2.txt|||||||+--subdir2|||||||||+--file3.txt||||+--file4.txt
