DESCRIPTION

(ALPHA) gcloud alpha spanner databases config export exports the configuration for a Spanner database.

To export the configuration for a database in Terraform HCL format, run:

$ gcloud alpha spanner databases config export my-database \ --resource-format=terraform

To export the configurations for all databases within a project, run:

$ gcloud alpha spanner databases config export --all
