Creates a Redis cluster based on the specified properties. The creation is executed asynchronously and callers may check the returned operation to track its progress. Once the operation is completed the Redis cluster will be fully functional. The completed longrunning.Operation will contain the new cluster object in the response field. The returned operation is automatically deleted after a few hours, so there is no need to call DeleteOperation.

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: redis1 --scope <scope> projects locations-clusters-create ...

Required Scalar Argument

  • <parent> (string)
    • Required. The resource name of the cluster location using the form: projects/{project_id}/locations/{location_id} where location_id refers to a GCP region.

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:

Cluster:
  authorization-mode: string
  create-time: string
  name: string
  replica-count: integer
  shard-count: integer
  size-gb: integer
  state: string
  state-info:
    update-info:
      target-replica-count: integer
      target-shard-count: integer
  transit-encryption-mode: string
  uid: 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 . authorization-mode=et
    • Optional. The authorization mode of the Redis cluster. If not provided, auth feature is disabled for the cluster.
  • create-time=magna
    • Output only. The timestamp associated with the cluster creation request.
  • name=no
    • Required. Unique name of the resource in this scope including project and location using the form: projects/{project_id}/locations/{location_id}/clusters/{cluster_id}
  • replica-count=46
    • Optional. The number of replica nodes per shard.
  • shard-count=73
    • Required. Number of shards for the Redis cluster.
  • size-gb=74
    • Output only. Redis memory size in GB for the entire cluster rounded up to the next integer.
  • state=sanctus
    • Output only. The current state of this cluster. Can be CREATING, READY, UPDATING, DELETING and SUSPENDED
  • state-info.update-info target-replica-count=21
    • Target number of replica nodes per shard.

  • target-shard-count=99

    • Target number of shards for redis cluster

  • ... transit-encryption-mode=takimata

    • Optional. The in-transit encryption for the Redis cluster. If not provided, encryption is disabled for the cluster.
  • uid=amet.
    • Output only. System assigned, unique identifier for the cluster.

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 cluster-id=string

    • Required. The logical name of the Redis cluster in the customer project with the following restrictions: * Must contain only lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens. * Must start with a letter. * Must be between 1-63 characters. * Must end with a number or a letter. * Must be unique within the customer project / location

  • -p request-id=string

    • Idempotent request UUID.

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").
