GCE images for GRPC

This directory contains a number of shell files used for setting up GCE images and instances for developing and testing gRPC.

Goal

  • provides a script to create a GCE image that has everything needed to try out gRPC on GCE.

  • provide another script that creates a new GCE instance from the latest image

  • additional scripts may be added in the future

Usage

Minimal usage (see the scripts themselves for options)

$ create_grpc_dev_image.sh # creates a grpc GCE image $ ... $ new_grpc_dev_instance.sh # creates an instance using the latest grpc GCE image

Requirements

Install Google Cloud SDK
