Creates a job in the specified region.

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: transcoder1 --scope <scope> projects locations-jobs-create ...

Required Scalar Argument

  • <parent> (string)
    • Required. The parent location to create and process this job. Format: projects/{project}/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:

Job:
  batch-mode-priority: integer
  config:
    output:
      uri: string
    pubsub-destination:
      topic: string
  create-time: string
  end-time: string
  error:
    code: integer
    message: string
  input-uri: string
  labels: { string: string }
  mode: string
  name: string
  optimization: string
  output-uri: string
  start-time: string
  state: string
  template-id: string
  ttl-after-completion-days: integer

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 . batch-mode-priority=73
    • The processing priority of a batch job. This field can only be set for batch mode jobs. The default value is 0. This value cannot be negative. Higher values correspond to higher priorities for the job.
  • config.output uri=at

  • ..pubsub-destination topic=sanctus

    • The name of the Pub/Sub topic to publish job completion notification to. For example: projects/{project}/topics/{topic}.
  • ... create-time=sed

    • Output only. The time the job was created.
  • end-time=amet.
    • Output only. The time the transcoding finished.
  • error code=42
    • The status code, which should be an enum value of google.rpc.Code.
  • message=amet.

    • A developer-facing error message, which should be in English. Any user-facing error message should be localized and sent in the google.rpc.Status.details field, or localized by the client.
  • .. input-uri=duo

    • Input only. Specify the input_uri to populate empty uri fields in each element of Job.config.inputs or JobTemplate.config.inputs when using template. URI of the media. Input files must be at least 5 seconds in duration and stored in Cloud Storage (for example, gs://bucket/inputs/file.mp4). See Supported input and output formats.
  • labels=key=ipsum
    • The labels associated with this job. You can use these to organize and group your jobs.
    • the value will be associated with the given key
  • mode=gubergren
    • The processing mode of the job. The default is PROCESSING_MODE_INTERACTIVE.
  • name=lorem
    • The resource name of the job. Format: projects/{project_number}/locations/{location}/jobs/{job}
  • optimization=gubergren
    • Optional. The optimization strategy of the job. The default is AUTODETECT.
  • output-uri=eos
    • Input only. Specify the output_uri to populate an empty Job.config.output.uri or JobTemplate.config.output.uri when using template. URI for the output file(s). For example, gs://my-bucket/outputs/. See Supported input and output formats.
  • start-time=dolor
    • Output only. The time the transcoding started.
  • state=ea
    • Output only. The current state of the job.
  • template-id=ipsum
    • Input only. Specify the template_id to use for populating Job.config. The default is preset/web-hd, which is the only supported preset. User defined JobTemplate: {job_template_id}
  • ttl-after-completion-days=13
    • Job time to live value in days, which will be effective after job completion. Job should be deleted automatically after the given TTL. Enter a value between 1 and 90. The default is 30.

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.
