NAME

gcloud beta emulators pubsub env-init - print the commands required to export pubsub emulator's env variables

SYNOPSIS

gcloud beta emulators pubsub env-init [--data-dir=DATA_DIR] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION

(BETA) After starting the emulator, you need to set environment variables so that your application connects to the emulator instead of the production environment. Environment variables need to be set each time you start the emulator. The environment variables depend on dynamically assigned port numbers that could change when you restart the emulator.

EXAMPLES

To print the env variables exports for a pubsub emulator, run:

$ gcloud beta emulators pubsub env-init --data-dir=DATA-DIR

For a detailed walkthrough of setting Pub/Sub emulator environment variables, see https://cloud.google.com/pubsub/docs/emulator#env.

FLAGS
