Overview

Cloud Scheduler lets you set up scheduled units of work to be executed at defined times or regular intervals. These work units are commonly known as cron jobs. Typical use cases might include sending out a report email on a daily basis, updating cached data every 10 minutes, or updating summary information once an hour. You can automate everything, including retries in case of failure to reduce manual intervention.

Each cron job created using Cloud Scheduler is sent to a target, where the work for the task is accomplished. The target must be one of the following types:

  • Publicly available HTTP/S endpoints
  • Pub/Sub topics
  • App Engine HTTP/S applications

In this lab you will learn how to:

  • Create a Cloud Scheduler job.
  • Set a recurring schedule for a job.
  • Specify a Cloud Pub/Sub topic as the job target.
  • Run a job.
  • Verify success.

Setup and requirements

Before you click the Start Lab button

Read these instructions. Labs are timed and you cannot pause them. The timer, which starts when you click Start Lab, shows how long Google Cloud resources will be made available to you.

This hands-on lab lets you do the lab activities yourself in a real cloud environment, not in a simulation or demo environment. It does so by giving you new, temporary credentials that you use to sign in and access Google Cloud for the duration of the lab.

To complete this lab, you need:

  • Access to a standard internet browser (Chrome browser recommended).
Note: Use an Incognito or private browser window to run this lab. This prevents any conflicts between your personal account and the Student account, which may cause extra charges incurred to your personal account.
  • Time to complete the lab---remember, once you start, you cannot pause a lab.
Note: If you already have your own personal Google Cloud account or project, do not use it for this lab to avoid extra charges to your account.

How to start your lab and sign in to the Google Cloud console

  1. Click the Start Lab button. If you need to pay for the lab, a pop-up opens for you to select your payment method. On the left is the Lab Details panel with the following:

    • The Open Google Cloud console button
    • Time remaining
    • The temporary credentials that you must use for this lab
    • Other information, if needed, to step through this lab
  2. Click Open Google Cloud console (or right-click and select Open Link in Incognito Window if you are running the Chrome browser).

    The lab spins up resources, and then opens another tab that shows the Sign in page.

    Tip: Arrange the tabs in separate windows, side-by-side.

    Note: If you see the Choose an account dialog, click Use Another Account.
  3. If necessary, copy the Username below and paste it into the Sign in dialog.

    {{{user_0.username | "Username"}}}

    You can also find the Username in the Lab Details panel.

  4. Click Next.

  5. Copy the Password below and paste it into the Welcome dialog.

    {{{user_0.password | "Password"}}}

    You can also find the Password in the Lab Details panel.

  6. Click Next.

    Important: You must use the credentials the lab provides you. Do not use your Google Cloud account credentials. Note: Using your own Google Cloud account for this lab may incur extra charges.
  7. Click through the subsequent pages:

    • Accept the terms and conditions.
    • Do not add recovery options or two-factor authentication (because this is a temporary account).
    • Do not sign up for free trials.

After a few moments, the Google Cloud console opens in this tab.

Activate Cloud Shell

Cloud Shell is a virtual machine that is loaded with development tools. It offers a persistent 5GB home directory and runs on the Google Cloud. Cloud Shell provides command-line access to your Google Cloud resources.

  1. Click Activate Cloud Shell Activate Cloud Shell icon at the top of the Google Cloud console.

When you are connected, you are already authenticated, and the project is set to your Project_ID, . The output contains a line that declares the Project_ID for this session:

Your Cloud Platform project in this session is set to {{{project_0.project_id | "PROJECT_ID"}}}

gcloud is the command-line tool for Google Cloud. It comes pre-installed on Cloud Shell and supports tab-completion.

  1. (Optional) You can list the active account name with this command:
gcloud auth list
  1. Click Authorize.

Output:

ACTIVE: * ACCOUNT: {{{user_0.username | "ACCOUNT"}}} To set the active account, run: $ gcloud config set account `ACCOUNT`
  1. (Optional) You can list the project ID with this command:
gcloud config list project

Output:

[core] project = {{{project_0.project_id | "PROJECT_ID"}}} Note: For full documentation of gcloud, in Google Cloud, refer to the gcloud CLI overview guide.

Set the region

Set the project region for this lab:

gcloud config set compute/region {{{project_0.default_region | "REGION"}}}

Task 1. Enable Cloud Scheduler API

  1. Click on APIs & services > Library:

The highlighted navigation path to the library option

  1. In the search bar, type in "scheduler", then click on the Cloud Scheduler API tile.

  2. Click Enable.

Task 2. Set up Cloud Pub/Sub

  1. Create a Pub/Sub topic to use as a target for your cron job:
gcloud pubsub topics create cron-topic

This command creates a topic called cron-topic.

  1. Make a note of the name, you will use it later.

  2. Create a Cloud Pub/Sub subscription:

gcloud pubsub subscriptions create cron-sub --topic cron-topic

You need this to view the results of your job.

Click Check my progress to verify the objective.

Set up Cloud Pub/Sub

Task 3. Create a job

  1. Visit the Cloud Scheduler page in the console - you can use the Navigation menu or the search bar:

The Cloud Scheduler option selected in the Integration services section of the navigation menu

  1. Click the Create job button.

  2. Give your job a name and optionally add a description.

  3. Specify the frequency for your job, using the unix-cron format for "every minute":

* * * * *
  1. Select your Timezone. Click Continue.

  2. In the Target type field, select Pub/Sub topic from the dropdown menu.

  3. Under Select a Cloud Pub/Sub topic dropdown select the topic you created earlier (cron-topic).

  4. Add a Message body string to be sent to your Cloud Pub/Sub target:

The Message body field populated with the following text: hello cron!

  1. Click Create.

You now have a job that sends a message to your Cloud Pub/Sub topic every minute. Wait a minute or 2 for the job to get succeeded.

Task 4. Verify the results in Cloud Pub/Sub

  1. To verify that your Cloud Pub/Sub topic is receiving messages from your job, invoke the following command:
gcloud pubsub subscriptions pull cron-sub --limit 5
  1. View the results.

You should see output that looks similar to the following:

Five rows of data in the output

  1. If you don't see 5 responses, run the command again until you do.

Task 5. Test your knowledge

Test your knowledge about Google Cloud Platform by answering this question:

Congratulations!

You do not need to know the intricacies of crontab to manage your running scripts. From a single UI or command-line interface, Cloud Scheduler allows you to view and manage all your jobs.
