This repository provides a Bash script to automate the building, deployment, and execution of a Cloud Run Job on Google Cloud Platform (GCP). It uses Google Cloud Build to containerize a Python application and deploy it as a Cloud Run Job with minimal manual setup.

Features

Automates Docker image build and push to Google Container Registry
Dynamically generates a cloudbuild.yaml file for Google Cloud Build
Creates and executes a Cloud Run Job in a specified region
Uses a service account for authentication and permissions

Tech Stack

Shell scripting (Bash)
Google Cloud SDK (gcloud CLI)
Google Cloud Build
Google Cloud Run
Docker

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Install and configure Google Cloud SDK
Install Docker
Have a Google Cloud Project with billing enabled
Create a service account with appropriate permissions and download its key JSON file to keys/service-account-key.json

Installation

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/justin-napolitano/create_deploy_cloud_run_job.git
cd create_deploy_cloud_run_job

Make the deployment script executable:

chmod +x create_deploy_cloud_run.sh

Ensure your Python application and Dockerfile are in the repository root.

Usage

Run the deployment script with the following arguments:

./create_deploy_cloud_run.sh <PROJECT_NAME> <IMAGE_NAME> <JOB_NAME>

<PROJECT_NAME>: Your Google Cloud project ID
<IMAGE_NAME>: Desired Docker image name
<JOB_NAME>: Name for the Cloud Run Job

Example:

./create_deploy_cloud_run.sh smart-axis-421517 my-python-job my-cloud-run-job

Future Work / Roadmap

Add support for customizable deployment regions and service accounts via script arguments
Integrate automated tests for the deployment script
Add support for environment variables and secrets management
Provide support for other container registries beyond Google Container Registry
Enhance error handling and logging within the script
Include example Python application and Dockerfile for quick start

Note: This README assumes the presence of a Dockerfile and Python application in the repository root, as referenced in the documentation.
