This is a simple example command line client that demonstrates Network Load Balancing. It also demonstrates how to use JSON credentials to authenticate allocating resources on a Google project.
Ensure you have maven 3.02 or higher installed, then execute mvn install to build the example.
Invoke the jar, passing in the path to a JSON key file and the action you wish to run.
Supported actions are:
- create
- request
- destroy
- delete_startup_script
To create the network loadbalancer, run:
java -jar target/google-lb-jar-with-dependencies.jar ~/path/to/key.json create
To demostrate the network loadbalancer is working, run the following command with your forwarding rule IP address:
while true; do curl -m1 $IP; done
Note: It may take some time for the setup to finish propigating.
If you dont know your forwarding rule IP address, run:
java -jar target/google-lb-jar-with-dependencies.jar ~/path/to/key.json request
To destroy the allocated resources run:
java -jar target/google-lb-jar-with-dependencies.jar ~/path/to/key.json destroy
To get a JSON key file you must first set up a project and create a service account. Direction can be found here.
