Google Cloud SDK

It it possible to install gcloud and its components using nix. There are two major packages to do so: google-cloud-sdk and google-cloud-sdk-gce , with that later being a version that is optimised to run on Google Cloud itself.

Components

Since the installation of gcloud is managed by nix, it won't be possible to install them using gcloud components install .... Use this snippet to create a pseudo-package with your components in them :

let
  gdk = pkgs.google-cloud-sdk.withExtraComponents( with pkgs.google-cloud-sdk.components [
    gke-gcloud-auth-plugin
  ]);
in
{
  packages = [
    gdk
  ];
}
