  --entry-point=handler \
  --source=.
```

View logs:
```bash

```

Delete function:
```bash
gcloud functions delete my-function --region=us-central1
```

## Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE)

List clusters:
```bash
gcloud container clusters list
```

Get credentials for kubectl:
```bash

  --zone=us-central1-a
```

Create cluster:
```bash
gcloud container clusters create my-cluster \
  --zone=us-central1-a \
  --num-nodes=3
```

Resize node pool:
```bash
gcloud container clusters resize my-cluster \
  --node-pool=default-pool \
  --num-nodes=5 \
  --zone=us-central1-a
```

## Cloud Storage

List buckets:
```bash
gcloud storage buckets list
```

Create bucket:

```

List objects:
```bash
gcloud storage ls gs://my-bucket/
```

Copy files:
```bash

gcloud storage cp local-file.txt gs://my-bucket/

# Download
gcloud storage cp gs://my-bucket/file.txt ./

# Recursive
gcloud storage cp -r ./local-dir gs://my-bucket/
```

Sync directory:
```bash
gcloud storage rsync -r ./local-dir gs://my-bucket/remote-dir
```

## Cloud SQL

List instances:
```bash
gcloud sql instances list
```

Create instance:
```bash
gcloud sql instances create my-instance \
  --database-version=POSTGRES_15 \
