If not provided, the project will be inferred from the credentials or the local environment. * `credentials`: A dictionary containing the service account information and project used for authentication. If not provided, the application default credentials will be used. * `ignore_file`: The name of the file containing ignore patterns. **Returns:** * A dictionary containing the bucket and folder where files were uploaded. **Examples:** Push to a GCS bucket: ```yaml theme={null} build: - prefect_gcp.deployments.steps.push_to_gcs: requires: prefect-gcp bucket: my-bucket folder: my-project ``` Push to a GCS bucket using credentials stored in a block: ```yaml theme={null} build: - prefect_gcp.deployments.steps.push_to_gcs: requires: prefect-gcp bucket: my-bucket folder: my-folder credentials: "{{ prefect.blocks.gcp-credentials.dev-credentials }}" ``` Push to a GCS bucket using credentials stored in a service account file: ```yaml theme={null} build: - prefect_gcp.deployments.steps.push_to_gcs: requires: prefect-gcp bucket: my-bucket folder: my-folder credentials: project: my-project service_account_file: /path/to/service_account.json ``` ### `pull_from_gcs` ```python theme={null} pull_from_gcs(bucket: str, folder: str, project: Optional[str] = None, credentials: Optional[Dict] = None) -> PullFromGcsOutput ``` Pulls the contents of a project from an GCS bucket to the current working directory. **Args:** * `bucket`: The name of the GCS bucket where files are stored. * `folder`: The folder in the GCS bucket where files are stored. * `project`: The GCP project the bucket belongs to. If not provided, the project will be inferred from the credentials or the local environment. * `credentials`: A dictionary containing the service account information and project used for authentication. If not provided, the application default credentials will be used. **Returns:** * A dictionary containing the bucket, folder, and local directory where files were downloaded. **Examples:** Pull from GCS using the default environment credentials: ```yaml theme={null} build: - prefect_gcp.deployments.steps.pull_from_gcs: requires: prefect-gcp bucket: my-bucket folder: my-folder ``` Pull from GCS using credentials stored in a block: ```yaml theme={null} build: - prefect_gcp.deployments.steps.pull_from_gcs: requires: prefect-gcp bucket: my-bucket folder: my-folder credentials: "{{ prefect.blocks.gcp-credentials.dev-credentials }}" ``` Pull from to an GCS bucket using credentials stored in a service account file: ```yaml theme={null} build: - prefect_gcp.deployments.steps.pull_from_gcs: requires: prefect-gcp bucket: my-bucket folder: my-folder credentials: project: my-project service_account_file: /path/to/service_account.json ``` ## Classes ### `PushToGcsOutput` The output of the `push_to_gcs` step. ### `PullFromGcsOutput` The output of the `pull_from_gcs` step.
