Support specifying a download location for the SDK #1007

Closed rohanliston closed 5 months ago

rohanliston commented 4 years ago

There doesn't appear to be a way to specify where the SDK will be downloaded to, which makes the SDK files more difficult to cache in a CI environment and prevent them from being downloaded/installed every time.

There is tools.cloudSdkHome, but the documentation for that property indicates that the download will only occur if this property is unset:

tools.cloudSdkHome: Optional property to configure the location of the Cloud SDK. If this property is not specified, then the plugin automatically downloads Cloud SDK.

It would be great to perhaps have a secondary property to configure whether or not the SDK is downloaded to the specified path, e.g.

tools.cloudSdk.home=/path/to/sdk
tools.cloudSdk.downloadIfMissing=true

If the plugin does not download gcloud command when it's missing, the plugin does not work. I think properly caching the tools.cloudSdk.home=/path/to/sdk would resolve your CI problem.

(Sorry I responded to a very old issue. I'll close this next week if there's no new findings)

@suztomo I'm no longer using App Engine or the CI platform in question anymore, so this issue is no longer relevant for me. Happy for you to close it if you wish, thanks.
