如何安装或卸载 gcloud？

Question

I follow all the steps from here .

At the final step where I run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install google-cloud-sdk , I get:

Hit:1 http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb stable InRelease

google-cloud-sdk is already the newest version (372.0.0-0).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

But, when I run gcloud it says

Command 'gcloud' not found, but can be installed with:
sudo snap install google-cloud-cli  # version 371.0.0, or
sudo snap install google-cloud-sdk  # version 371.0.0
See 'snap info <snapname>' for additional versions.

I add

source $HOME/google-cloud-sdk/path.bash.inc
source $HOME/google-cloud-sdk/completion.bash.inc

at the end of my ~/.bashrc

I run source ~/.bashrc

I get:

bash: /home/nitin/google-cloud-sdk/path.bash.inc: No such file or directory
bash: /home/nitin/google-cloud-sdk/completion.bash.inc: No such file or directory

I try to run gcloud

I get:

Command 'gcloud' not found, but can be installed with:
sudo snap install google-cloud-cli  # version 371.0.0, or
sudo snap install google-cloud-sdk  # version 371.0.0
See 'snap info <snapname>' for additional versions.

Since, I cannot run gcloud , I cannot even run

gcloud info --format='value(installation.sdk_root)'
 gcloud info --format='value(config.paths.global_config_dir)'

and hence cannot complete the steps given here to uninstall the cloud

PLEASE HELP ME SET UP GCLOUD ON MY MACHINE

Answer 1

There are 2 options on how to install gcloud CLI by checking if your distribution supports signed-by option. You mentioned that you're using Ubuntu 21.10 , meaning that signed-by option is supported, according to this Ubuntu manuals documentation .

I have replicated the steps and only selected options which supports the signed-by option.

Upon further reading, apt-key will be deprecated soon, according to this link . Transitioning to signed-by would be a better option.

I've used the following commands as they worked on my end:

 1. sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https ca-certificates gnupg
 2. echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/cloud.google.gpg] https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt cloud-sdk main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-cloud-sdk.list
 3. curl https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt/doc/apt-key.gpg | sudo apt-key --keyring /usr/share/keyrings/cloud.google.gpg add -
 4. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install google-cloud-sdk
 5. gcloud init

Let me know if this helps.

Answer 2

Run these 5 commands to install "gcloud" for Debian/Ubuntu :

---

sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https ca-certificates gnupg -y

echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/cloud.google.gpg] https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt cloud-sdk main"  | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-cloud-sdk.list

curl https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt/doc/apt-key.gpg | sudo apt-key --keyring /usr/share/keyrings/cloud.google.gpg add -

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install google-cloud-cli

* "--console-only" is really important to open a browser properly and you can also use "--no-launch-browser" instead of "--console-only" .

gcloud init --console-only

---

I concatenated these 5 commands above with "&&" as shown below so that you can run only one command:

sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https ca-certificates gnupg -y &&
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/cloud.google.gpg] https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt cloud-sdk main"  | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-cloud-sdk.list &&
curl https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt/doc/apt-key.gpg | sudo apt-key --keyring /usr/share/keyrings/cloud.google.gpg add - && 
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install google-cloud-cli && 
gcloud init --console-only

After running the command above, you will be asked as shown below then, input "y" then, press Enter :

You must log in to continue. Would you like to log in (Y/n)? y

Then, one URL is displayed and you are asked for a "verification code" which you can get from the URL by allowing Google Cloud SDK to access your Google Account:

Go to the following link in your browser:

https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?response_type=code&client_id=32555940559.apps.googleusercontent.com&redirect_uri=urn%3Aietf%3Awg%3Aoauth%3A2.0%3Aoob&scope=openid+https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fuserinfo.email+https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fcloud-platform+https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fappengine.admin+https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fcompute+https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Faccounts.reauth&state=pDDwd21KWSbLPwjJ0MCX7JCDwePBzR&prompt=consent&access_type=offline&code_challenge=vZ-2U2YLwHtQPPAVSDjzrfi2uoke4laUwwnOhkOL064&code_challenge_method=S256

Enter verification code:

Then, you need to go to the URL above using your browser then, choose one of your google accounts:

Then, press "Allow" :

Then, copy the verification code as shown below:

Then, paste the verification code then, press Enter :

Go to the following link in your browser:

https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?response_type=code&client_id=32555940559.apps.googleusercontent.com&redirect_uri=urn%3Aietf%3Awg%3Aoauth%3A2.0%3Aoob&scope=openid+https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fuserinfo.email+https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fcloud-platform+https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fappengine.admin+https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fcompute+https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Faccounts.reauth&state=pDDwd21KWSbLPwjJ0MCX7JCDwePBzR&prompt=consent&access_type=offline&code_challenge=vZ-2U2YLwHtQPPAVSDjzrfi2uoke4laUwwnOhkOL064&code_challenge_method=S256

Enter verification code: 4/1AX4XfWg7oIOraXFuEGLApi3knvBqvqFgY8bA_6Yj8_osTd4f_FwzrvhicS0

Then, you could log in then, choose one of your projects then, press Enter :

You are logged in as: [myappdev@gmail.com].
