GCP config

local run

Each developer defines variable GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS and points it to his/her file with proper GCP creds.

docker run

Currently containers are stored locally (could be stored locally in your case). Embed GCP creds inside a container is not a good idea.

GCP creds should be placed in the file gcp.json the same directory as application.properties. Docker image has env variable GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=/config/gcp.json

K8s

In K8S we are injecting gcp.json into service /config directory via K8S ConfigMap

todo

• use jib to build and run(?) docker images
• use gRPC as an internal transport protocol
• use plantuml + gradle plugin to generate arch diagrams (? commit to git? )
• finalize k8s configuration
