Using Google Cloud Deployment Manager for Google Cloud IoT

Currently the Google Cloud Deployment Manager does not allow to access the Google Cloud IoT components. To get around this circumstance it is possible to add a custom type provider with the Google Cloud IoT API endpoint.

HowTo

Replace [PROJECT-ID]

Replace [PROJECT-ID] in iot-config.yaml with your GCP project id.

Add custom cloudiot type

gcloud beta deployment-manager type-providers create custom-gcp-cloudiot --api-options-file=options.yaml --descriptor-url="https://cloudiot.googleapis.com/\$discovery/rest?version=v1"

Look up the new type

gcloud beta deployment-manager types list

Create example iot register

gcloud deployment-manager deployments create testiot --config iot-config.yaml

Check dashboard

https://console.cloud.google.com/iot/registries

Delete example iot register

gcloud deployment-manager  deployments delete testiot
