---------------------- Sure, I can guide you through the process of configuring a GCP cluster as your remote Kubernetes cluster for Garden. Here are the steps: 1. **Create a project and a cluster**: Follow the steps in GKE's quickstart guide () to create a project and a Kubernetes cluster. You can use the
gcloud
CLI tool or the web UI. After creating the cluster, run the command
gcloud container clusters get-credentials [your-cluster-name]
to add an entry for your cluster to your local Kubernetes config. Run
kubectl get ns
to verify that you're able to connect to your cluster. 2. **Set up permissions**: When using a GKE cluster with Garden, you can use the following predefined roles (): Kubernetes Engine Developer and Kubernetes Engine Cluster Viewer. These roles allow users to list all GKE clusters in a project and access the Kubernetes API and objects inside clusters. 3. **Configure kubectl context**: You need to set up a kubectl context () on the CI agent to access your remote cluster. Here's an example of how to do this in CircleCI:
Copy code
yml
# .circleci/config
commands: 
  configure_kubectl_context: 
    description: Configure the kubectl context so that we can access our remote cluster 
    steps: 
      - run: 
          name: Configure kubectl context via gcloud 
          command: | 
            gcloud --quiet components update 
            echo $GCLOUD_SERVICE_KEY | gcloud auth activate-service-account --key-file=- 
            gcloud --quiet config set project $GCLOUD_PROJECT_ID && gcloud --quiet config set compute/zone $GCLOUD_COMPUTE_ZONE 
            gcloud --quiet container clusters get-credentials $GCLOUD_CLUSTER_ID --zone $GCLOUD_COMPUTE_ZONE 
            gcloud --quiet auth configure-docker
4. **Set up a GCR registry**: Follow this guide () to create a private GCR registry on GCP. Then follow this guide () to create an image pull secret so that your cluster can pull images from your registry. 5. **Enable in-cluster building with GCR**: To use in-cluster building with GCR, you need to set up authentication. This involves creating a Google Service Account (GSA), giving the GSA the appropriate permissions, creating a JSON key for the account, creating an imagePullSecret for using the JSON key, and adding a reference to the imagePullSecret in your Garden project configuration. Please refer to the Garden documentation () for more detailed instructions. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:

@microscopic-river-74022 do you know if tasks can depend in remoteSources? This used to work for me but now is failing
m
---------------------- Based on the information provided in the extracts, tasks can indeed have dependencies. However, there's no specific mention of tasks depending on remote sources. In Garden, tasks, services, and tests can specify dependencies on other tasks, services, or tests. This is done using the
dependencies
field in their respective
garden.yml
configuration. When a task, service, or test has dependencies, Garden ensures that the dependencies are deployed or run before the dependent task, service, or test. If you're experiencing issues with tasks depending on remote sources, it could be due to a variety of reasons such as changes in the configuration, issues with the remote source, or updates in Garden's functionality. For a more accurate diagnosis, it would be helpful to have more information about the error message you're receiving and the configuration of your tasks and remote sources. You might also want to check the Garden documentation () or the Garden GitHub issues () for similar problems or potential solutions. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
