Creates a new subscription.

Scopes

You will need authorization for the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform scope to make a valid call.

If unset, the scope for this method defaults to https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform. You can set the scope for this method like this: pubsublite1 --scope <scope> admin projects-locations-subscriptions-create ...

Required Scalar Argument

  • <parent> (string)
    • Required. The parent location in which to create the subscription. Structured like projects/{project_number}/locations/{location}.

Required Request Value

The request value is a data-structure with various fields. Each field may be a simple scalar or another data-structure. In the latter case it is advised to set the field-cursor to the data-structure's field to specify values more concisely.

For example, a structure like this:

Subscription:
  delivery-config:
    delivery-requirement: string
  export-config:
    current-state: string
    dead-letter-topic: string
    desired-state: string
    pubsub-config:
      topic: string
  name: string
  topic: string

can be set completely with the following arguments which are assumed to be executed in the given order. Note how the cursor position is adjusted to the respective structures, allowing simple field names to be used most of the time.

  • -r .delivery-config delivery-requirement=voluptua.

    • The DeliveryRequirement for this subscription.
  • ..export-config current-state=at

    • Output only. The current state of the export, which may be different to the desired state due to errors. This field is output only.
  • dead-letter-topic=sanctus
    • Optional. The name of an optional Pub/Sub Lite topic to publish messages that can not be exported to the destination. For example, the message can not be published to the Pub/Sub service because it does not satisfy the constraints documented at https://cloud.google.com/pubsub/docs/publisher. Structured like: projects/{project_number}/locations/{location}/topics/{topic_id}. Must be within the same project and location as the subscription. The topic may be changed or removed.
  • desired-state=sed
    • The desired state of this export. Setting this to values other than ACTIVE and PAUSED will result in an error.
  • pubsub-config topic=amet.

    • The name of the Pub/Sub topic. Structured like: projects/{project_number}/topics/{topic_id}. The topic may be changed.
  • ... name=takimata

    • The name of the subscription. Structured like: projects/{project_number}/locations/{location}/subscriptions/{subscription_id}
  • topic=amet.
    • The name of the topic this subscription is attached to. Structured like: projects/{project_number}/locations/{location}/topics/{topic_id}

About Cursors

The cursor position is key to comfortably set complex nested structures. The following rules apply:

  • The cursor position is always set relative to the current one, unless the field name starts with the . character. Fields can be nested such as in -r f.s.o .
  • The cursor position is set relative to the top-level structure if it starts with ., e.g. -r .s.s
  • You can also set nested fields without setting the cursor explicitly. For example, to set a value relative to the current cursor position, you would specify -r struct.sub_struct=bar.
  • You can move the cursor one level up by using ... Each additional . moves it up one additional level. E.g. ... would go three levels up.

Optional Output Flags

The method's return value a JSON encoded structure, which will be written to standard output by default.

  • -o out
    • out specifies the destination to which to write the server's result to. It will be a JSON-encoded structure. The destination may be - to indicate standard output, or a filepath that is to contain the received bytes. If unset, it defaults to standard output.

Optional Method Properties

You may set the following properties to further configure the call. Please note that -p is followed by one or more key-value-pairs, and is called like this -p k1=v1 k2=v2 even though the listing below repeats the -p for completeness.

  • -p skip-backlog=boolean

    • If true, the newly created subscription will only receive messages published after the subscription was created. Otherwise, the entire message backlog will be received on the subscription. Defaults to false.
  • -p subscription-id=string

    • Required. The ID to use for the subscription, which will become the final component of the subscription's name. This value is structured like: my-sub-name.

Optional General Properties

The following properties can configure any call, and are not specific to this method.

  • -p $-xgafv=string

    • V1 error format.
  • -p access-token=string

    • OAuth access token.
  • -p alt=string

    • Data format for response.
  • -p callback=string

    • JSONP
  • -p fields=string

    • Selector specifying which fields to include in a partial response.
  • -p key=string

    • API key. Your API key identifies your project and provides you with API access, quota, and reports. Required unless you provide an OAuth 2.0 token.
  • -p oauth-token=string

    • OAuth 2.0 token for the current user.
  • -p pretty-print=boolean

    • Returns response with indentations and line breaks.
  • -p quota-user=string

    • Available to use for quota purposes for server-side applications. Can be any arbitrary string assigned to a user, but should not exceed 40 characters.
  • -p upload-type=string

    • Legacy upload protocol for media (e.g. "media", "multipart").
  • -p upload-protocol=string

    • Upload protocol for media (e.g. "raw", "multipart").
