Publishing to a public Google Cloud bucket with gsutil#

Creating the bucket#

I used an authenticated gsutil session that I already had from my work with Google Cloud Run.

To create a new bucket:

1
gsutil mb gs://cdc-vaccination-history-csv.datasette.io/

mb is the make bucket command.

I had already verified my datasette.io bucket with Google, otherwise this step would not have worked.

Uploading files#

1
gsutil cp *.csv gs://cdc-vaccination-history-csv.datasette.io

Using the gsutil cp command.

Making them available to the public#

This command allows anyone to download from the bucket:

1
gsutil iam ch allUsers:objectViewer gs://cdc-vaccination-history-csv.datasette.io

DNS#

I configured cdc-vaccination-history-csv as a CNAME pointing to c.storage.googleapis.com.

https://cdc-vaccination-history-csv.datasette.io/ now shows an XML directory listing.
