Google Cloud App Engine - Features, integrations, alternatives & more
What it does
The action transfers source code from the pipeline’s filesystem to Google App Engine, the fully managed serverless application platform. It supports Java, PHP, Node.js, Python, C#, .Net, Ruby and Go or it’s possible to bring any other language runtimes and frameworks.
How it works
The action uses Buddy’s OAuth integration with Google Cloud. Once it's set up, it allows for selecting an application to deploy to. This action uses the gcloud command-line tool to prepare a package and deploy it using a YAML config.
