- DESCRIPTION
-
(BETA)
If a full gcloud command is specified after the
operand, gcloud beta help prints a detailed help message for that command.help
Otherwise, gcloud beta help runs a search for all commands with help text matching the given argument or arguments. It prints the command name and a summary of the help text for any command that it finds as a result.
To run a search directly, you can use remainder arguments, following a
--
.By default, command results are displayed in a table that shows the name of the command and snippets of the help text that relate to your search terms.
By default, search results are sorted from most to least relevant by default, using a localized rating based on several heuristics. These heuristics may change in future runs of this command.
- EXAMPLES
-
To get the help for the command
gcloud projects describe
, run:gcloud beta help projects describe
To search for all commands whose help text contains the word
project
, run:gcloud beta help -- project
To search for commands whose help text contains the word
project
and the string--foo
, run:gcloud beta help -- project --foo
To search and receive more than the default limit of 5 search results, run:
gcloud beta help --limit=20 -- project
To search for a term and sort the results by a different characteristic, such as command name, run:
gcloud beta help --sort-by=name -- project
- POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
-
- [
COMMAND
…] -
Sequence of names representing a gcloud group or command name.
If the arguments provide the name of a gcloud command, the full help text of that command will be displayed. Otherwise, all arguments will be considered search terms and used to search through all of gcloud's help text.
- [--
SEARCH_TERMS
…] -
Search terms. The command will return a list of gcloud commands that are
relevant to the searched term. If this argument is provided, the command will
always return a list of search results rather than displaying help text of a
single command.
For example, to search for commands that relate to the term
project
orfolder
, run:gcloud beta help -- project folder

. --limit
=LIMIT
; default=5-
Maximum number of resources to list. The default is
5
. This flag interacts with other flags that are applied in this order:--flatten

,--filter
,--limit
. --page-size
=PAGE_SIZE
-
Some services group resource list output into pages. This flag specifies the
maximum number of resources per page. The default is determined by the service
if it supports paging, otherwise it is
unlimited
(no paging). Paging may be applied before or after--filter
and--limit
depending on the service. --sort-by
=[FIELD
,…]; default="~relevance"-
Comma-separated list of resource field key names to sort by. The default order
is ascending. Prefix a field with ``~´´ for descending order on that
field. This flag interacts with other flags that are applied in this order:

,--sort-by
,--filter
,--limit
. The default is~relevance
.
