- DESCRIPTION
-
(BETA)gcloud beta compute url-maps add-path-matcheris used to add a path matcher to a URL map. A path matcher maps HTTP request paths to backend services or backend buckets. Each path matcher must be referenced by at least one host rule. This command can create a new host rule through the--new-hostsflag or it can reconfigure an existing host rule to point to the newly added path matcher using--existing-host. In the latter case, if a path matcher is orphaned as a result of the operation, this command will fail unless--delete-orphaned-path-matcheris provided. Path matcher constraints can be found here. - EXAMPLES
-
To create a rule for mapping the path
/search/*to the hypotheticalsearch-service,/static/*to thestatic-bucketbackend bucket and/images/*to theimages-serviceunder the hostsexample.comand*.example.com, run:gcloud beta compute url-maps add-path-matcher MY-URL-MAP --path-matcher-name=MY-MATCHER --default-service=MY-DEFAULT-SERVICE --backend-service-path-rules='/search/*=search_service,/images/*=images-service' --backend-bucket-path-rules='/static/*=static-bucket' --new-hosts=example.com '*.example.com'Note that a default service or default backend bucket must be provided to handle paths for which there is no mapping.
- POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
-
URL_MAP- Name of the URL map to operate on.
- REQUIRED FLAGS
-
--path-matcher-name=PATH_MATCHER_NAME- The name to assign to the path matcher.
-
Exactly one of these must be specified:
--default-backend-bucket=DEFAULT_BACKEND_BUCKET- A backend bucket that will be used for requests that the path matcher cannot match. Exactly one of --default-service or --default-backend-bucket is required.
--default-service=DEFAULT_SERVICE- A backend service that will be used for requests that the path matcher cannot match. Exactly one of --default-service or --default-backend-bucket is required.
- OPTIONAL FLAGS
-
--backend-bucket-path-rules=PATH=BUCKET,[PATH=BUCKET,…]- Rules for mapping request paths to backend buckets.
--backend-service-path-rules=PATH=SERVICE,[…]- Rules for mapping request paths to services.
--delete-orphaned-path-matcher- If provided and a path matcher is orphaned as a result of this command, the command removes the orphaned path matcher instead of failing.
--description=DESCRIPTION- An optional, textual description for the path matcher.
--path-rules=PATH=SERVICE,[…]- Rules for mapping request paths to services.
-
At most one of these can be specified:
--existing-host=EXISTING_HOST- An existing host rule to tie the new path matcher to. Although host rules can contain more than one host, only a single host is needed to uniquely identify the host rule.
--new-hosts=NEW_HOST,[NEW_HOST,…]- If specified, a new host rule with the given hosts is created and the path matcher is tied to the new host rule.
-
At most one of these can be specified:
--global- If set, the URL map is global.
--region=REGION-
Region of the URL map to operate on. If not specified, you might be prompted to
select a region (interactive mode only).
To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, you can set the
property:compute/regiongcloud config set compute/region REGIONA list of regions can be fetched by running:
gcloud compute regions listTo unset the property, run:
gcloud config unset compute/regionAlternatively, the region can be stored in the environment variable
.CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_REGION
