gcloud alpha cloud-shell get-mount-command - prints a command to mount the Cloud Shell home directory via sshfs
gcloud alpha cloud-shell get-mount-command MOUNT_DIR [--force-key-file-overwrite] [--ssh-key-file] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]
(ALPHA) gcloud alpha cloud-shell get-mount-command starts your Cloud Shell if it is not already running, then prints out a command that allows you to mount the Cloud Shell home directory onto your local file system using sshfs. You must install and run sshfs yourself.
After mounting the Cloud Shell home directory, any changes you make under the mount point on your local file system will be reflected in Cloud Shell and vice-versa.
To print a command that mounts a remote directory onto your local file system, run:
$ gcloud alpha cloud-shell get-mount-command REMOTE-DIR
- MOUNT_DIR
Local directory onto which the Cloud Shell home directory should be mounted.
- --force-key-file-overwrite
If enabled gcloud will regenerate and overwrite the files associated with a broken SSH key without asking for confirmation in both interactive and non-interactive environment.
If disabled gcloud will not attempt to regenerate the files associated with a broken SSH key and fail in both interactive and non-interactive environment.
- --ssh-key-file
The path to the SSH key file. By default, this is ~/.ssh/google_compute_engine.
These flags are available to all commands: --access-token-file, --account, --billing-project, --configuration, --flags-file, --flatten, --format, --help, --impersonate-service-account, --log-http, --project, --quiet, --trace-token, --user-output-enabled, --verbosity.
Run $ gcloud help for details.
