Hi Ignasi,
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. This is the proof of code
that I created to create an instance and attach an disk with the
instanceAPI. If anyone sees a way to enhance it please let me know. When I
have some time I will add it to JClouds Examples.
GoogleComputeEngineApi gce = context.unwrapApi(GoogleComputeEngineApi.class);
URI machineType = new
URI("https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/soy-sound-613/zones/asia-east1-a/machineTypes/f1-micro";);
URI networkType = new
URI("https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/soy-sound-613/global/networks/default";);
URI uriImage = new
URI("https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/ubuntu-os-cloud/global/images/ubuntu-1404-trusty-v20150128";);
String INSTANCE_NAME = "test";
NewInstance instance = NewInstance.create(INSTANCE_NAME, machineType,
networkType, uriImage);
InstanceApi instanceApi = gce.instancesInZone("asia-east1-a");
DiskApi diskApi = gce.disksInZone("asia-east1-a");
instanceApi.create(instance);
Instance instanceBuilding = instanceApi.get(INSTANCE_NAME);
while ( instanceBuilding == null || instanceBuilding.status() !=
Instance.Status.RUNNING ){
if (instanceBuilding == null ) {
System.out.println("Instance is null. Waiting for it to exist ... ");
} else {
System.out.println("Instance not running yet. Status: " +
instanceBuilding.status());
}
Thread.sleep(1000);
instanceBuilding = instanceApi.get(INSTANCE_NAME);
}
String ATTACH_DISK_NAME = "diskname";
URI diskType = new
URI("https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/soy-sound-613/zones/asia-east1-a/diskTypes/pd-ssd";);
diskApi.create(ATTACH_DISK_NAME, new
DiskCreationOptions().sizeGb(1).type(diskType));
Disk diskBuilding = diskApi.get(ATTACH_DISK_NAME);
while ( diskBuilding == null || diskBuilding.status() != Disk.Status.READY){
if ( diskBuilding == null ) {
System.out.println("Disk is null. Waiting for it to exist ... ");
} else {
System.out.println("Disk not ready yet. Status: " +
diskBuilding.status());
}
Thread.sleep(1000);
diskBuilding = diskApi.get(ATTACH_DISK_NAME);
}
System.out.println("ATTACHING DISK");
URI diskUrl = new
URI("https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/soy-sound-613/zones/asia-east1-a/disks/";
+ ATTACH_DISK_NAME);
instanceApi.attachDisk(INSTANCE_NAME,
AttachDisk.create(AttachDisk.Type.PERSISTENT, // type
AttachDisk.Mode.READ_WRITE, // mode
diskUrl, // source
"myattacheddisk", // deviceName
false, // boot
null, // initializeParams
true, // autoDelete
null, // licenses
null // interface
));
