gcloud alpha blockchain-node-engine nodes create

NAME
gcloud alpha blockchain-node-engine nodes create - create a Blockchain Node Engine node
SYNOPSIS
gcloud alpha blockchain-node-engine nodes create (NODE_NAME : --location=LOCATION) [--async] [--blockchain-type=BLOCKCHAIN_TYPE; default="ETHEREUM"] [--consensus-client=CONSENSUS_CLIENT; default="LIGHTHOUSE"] [--execution-client=EXECUTION_CLIENT; default="GETH"] [--network=NETWORK; default="MAINNET"] [--node-type=NODE_TYPE; default="FULL"] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG …]
DESCRIPTION
(ALPHA) Create a new Blockchain Node Engine node with the given name and configurations.

If run asynchronously with --async, exits after printing one operation name that can be used to poll the status of the creation via: 

gcloud operations describe
EXAMPLES
To create a Blockchain Node Engine node with the name my-node in location us-central, run: 
gcloud alpha blockchain-node-engine nodes create my-node --location=us-central1
POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
Node resource - Arguments and flags that specify the Blockchain Node Engine node you want to create. The arguments in this group can be used to specify the attributes of this resource. (NOTE) Some attributes are not given arguments in this group but can be set in other ways.

To set the project attribute:

  • provide the argument node_name on the command line with a fully specified name;
  • provide the argument --project on the command line;
  • set the property core/project.

This must be specified.

NODE_NAME
ID of the node or fully qualified identifier for the node.

To set the node_name attribute:

  • provide the argument node_name on the command line.

This positional argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

--location=LOCATION
Location of the blockchain node resource. To set the location attribute:
  • provide the argument node_name on the command line with a fully specified name;
  • provide the argument --location on the command line;
  • set the property web3/location.
FLAGS
--async
Return immediately, without waiting for the operation in progress to complete.
--blockchain-type=BLOCKCHAIN_TYPE; default="ETHEREUM"
Blockchain type the node will connect run on. BLOCKCHAIN_TYPE must be (only one value is supported):
ethereum
Ethereum blockchain.
--consensus-client=CONSENSUS_CLIENT; default="LIGHTHOUSE"
Consensus client for Ethereum nodes. CONSENSUS_CLIENT must be (only one value is supported):
lighthouse
Lighthouse execution client.
--execution-client=EXECUTION_CLIENT; default="GETH"
Execution client for Ethereum nodes. EXECUTION_CLIENT must be (only one value is supported):
geth
Geth execution client.
--network=NETWORK; default="MAINNET"
Blockchain network the node will connect to. NETWORK must be one of:
goerli
Goerli & Prater Ethereum test network.
holesky
Holesky Ethereum test network.
mainnet
Primary Ethereum network, often referred to as mainnet.
sepolia
Sepolia Ethereum test network.
--node-type=NODE_TYPE; default="FULL"
Node type - defines whether the node retains only recent data or an archival history. NODE_TYPE must be (only one value is supported):
full
Node retains full history required for consensus validation, however does not retain archival data beyond that.
GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS
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.

API REFERENCE
This command uses the blockchainnodeengine/v1 API. The full documentation for this API can be found at: https://cloud.google.com/blockchain-node-engine
NOTES
This command is currently in alpha and might change without notice. If this command fails with API permission errors despite specifying the correct project, you might be trying to access an API with an invitation-only early access allowlist.
