Prerequisites

This section describes the steps we need to perform to set up our environment for the implementation steps later in this chapter.

Note

In Chapter 4 of this book, we created a local directory in our Cloud Shell environment and cloned our GitHub repository into that directory. If you did not perform those steps, please reference those instructions now, in the section named Create a directory and clone our GitHub repository in Chapter 4.

When you have ensured that the GitHub repository for this book has been cloned into the local directory in your Cloud Shell environment, continue with the prerequisite steps in this section.

Using the Google Cloud Shell

We will use the Google Cloud Shell to perform the activities in this section. You can access it by clicking the Cloud Shell symbol in the top-right corner of the Google Cloud console screen, as shown in Figure 18.1.
