Pre-Conditions:

• You need have installed SDK. You can do that following next steps Note: I set alias to use SDK like msdk. ---

1st - Set a name to bucket ✍️

We assign to a variable the name that will have bucket.

I use following command:

BUCKET_NAME="xlmriosx_bucket"

2nd - Create bucket ✅

Using SDK installed with alias like msdk I use following command to create a bucket:

• With alias:

mdsk gsutil mb -p $PROJECT_NAME -c $BUCKET_TYPE -l $REGION gs://$BUCKET_NAME

• Without alias:

docker run --rm --volumes-from gcloud-config gcr.io/google.com/cloudsdktool/cloud-sdk gsutil mb -p $PROJECT_NAME -c $BUCKET_TYPE -l $REGION gs://$BUCKET_NAME

Where:
$PROJECT_NAME -> Is name of the project where you wnat instance a bucket.

$BUCKET_TYPE -> Is type of storage you want, like standard, nearline, coldline, archive.

$REGION -> Region where you want stay your storage bucket.

OUTPUT:

Creating gs://xlmriosx_bucket/...

3rd - Verify that your bucket was created ✅

We will list buckets to verify that our bucket was created:

• With alias:

docker run -ti --name gcloud-config gcr.io/google.com/cloudsdktool/cloud-sdk gcloud auth login

• Without alias:

msdk gsutil ls gs://$BUCKET_NAME

4th - Upload content in bucket ⬆️

We can copy content to bucket with the following command:

msdk gsutil cp $DATA gs://$BUCKET_NAME

OUTPUT:

Copying file:///$DATA
[Content-Type=X]...
- [1 files][    Y.0 B/    Y.0 B]
Operation completed over 1 objects/Y.0 B.

Where:
$DATA -> Directory or file that we want upload in the bucket.
