GCLOUD COMPUTE PROJECT-INFO ADD-METADATA(1)


NAME

       gcloud_compute_project-info_add-metadata - add or update project-wide
              metadata


SYNOPSIS

       gcloud compute project-info add-metadata [--format FORMAT] [--help]
              [--metadata KEY=VALUE [KEY=VALUE ...]]
              [--metadata-from-file KEY=LOCAL_FILE_PATH
              [KEY=LOCAL_FILE_PATH ...]] [--project PROJECT_ID] [--quiet, -q]
              [-h]


DESCRIPTION

       gcloud compute project-info add-metadata can be used to add or update
       project-wide metadata. Every instance has access to a metadata server
       that can be used to query metadata that has been set through this tool.
       Project-wide metadata entries are visible to all instances. To set
       metadata for individual instances, use gcloud compute instances
       add-metadata. For information on metadata, see
       https://developers.google.com/compute/docs/metadata.

       Only metadata keys that are provided are mutated. Existing metadata
       entries will remain unaffected.


FLAGS

       --metadata KEY=VALUE [KEY=VALUE ...]
           Metadata to be made available to the guest operating system running
           on the instances. Each metadata entry is a key/value pair separated
           by an equals sign. Metadata keys must be unique and less than 128
           bytes in length. Values must be less than or equal to 32,768 bytes
           in length. Multiple arguments can be passed to this flag, e.g.,
           _--metadata key-1=value-1 key-2=value-2 key-3=value-3_.

           In images that have Compute Engine tools installed on them, the
           following metadata keys have special meanings:

           startup-script
               Specifies a script that will be executed by the instances once
               they start running. For convenience, --metadata-from-file can
               be used to pull the value from a file.

           startup-script-url
               Same as startup-script except that the script contents are
               pulled from a publicly-accessible location on the web.

       --metadata-from-file KEY=LOCAL_FILE_PATH [KEY=LOCAL_FILE_PATH ...]
           Same as --metadata except that the value for the entry will be read
           from a local file. This is useful for values that are too large
           such as startup-script contents.

   GLOBAL FLAGS
       --format FORMAT
           Specify a format for printed output. By default, a command-specific
           human-friendly output format is used. Setting this flag to one of
           the available options will serialize the result of the command in
           the chosen format and print it to stdout. Supported formats are:
           json, text, yaml.

       --help
           Display detailed help.

       --project PROJECT_ID
           The Google Cloud Platform project name to use for this invocation.
           If omitted then the current project is assumed.

       --quiet, -q
           Disable all interactive prompts when running gcloud commands. If
           input is required, defaults will be used, or an error will be
           raised.

       -h
           Print a summary help and exit.


NOTES

       This command is in the Google Cloud SDK compute component. See
       installing components if it is not installed.
