1 - The instructor will provide you with a temporary username / password to sign in to the Google Cloud Platform Console.
Important: To avoid conflicts with your personal account, please open a new incognito window for the rest of this lab.
Sign in to the Google Cloud Platform Console: https://console.cloud.google.com/home with the provided credentials. In Welcome to your new account dialog, click Accept.
2 - Check I agree and click Agree and Continue
2 - If you see a top bar with Sign Up for Free Trial - DO NOT SIGN UP FOR THE FREE TRIAL. Click Dismiss since you'll be using a pre-provisioned lab account. If you are doing this on your own account, then you may want the free trial.
3 - Select the only Google Cloud Platform project in the project list. If you don't see a project, let the instructor know!
4 - Take note of the full project name from the URL such as codeone19-sfo-... :
You will do most of the work from the Google Cloud Shell, a command line environment running in the Cloud. This Debian-based virtual machine is loaded with all the development tools you’ll need (docker, gcloud, kubectl and others) and offers a persistent 5GB home directory. Open the Google Cloud Shell by clicking on the icon on the top right of the screen:
-
When prompted, click Start Cloud Shell. You should see the shell prompt at the bottom of the window.
-
Check to see if Cloud Shell's Boost mode is Enabled.
- If not, then enable Boost Mode for Cloud Shell.
Clone from the current repository, e.g.
git clone https://github.com/retroryan/istio-workshop
You can setup the Google Cloud SDK locally but that is out of the scope of this workshop. See the Cloud SDK for more information
