Google Cloud Run + Cloud Scheduler

Run your dotflow pipeline on a recurring schedule using Cloud Run and Cloud Scheduler.

Create project

dotflow init
# Select cloud: cloud-run-scheduled

Or generate files for an existing project:

dotflow cloud generate --platform cloud-run-scheduled

Generated files

File	Description
Dockerfile	Container image
cloudbuild.yaml	Cloud Build configuration
scheduler.yaml	Cloud Scheduler job definition

Prerequisites

• Google Cloud CLI (gcloud) installed and authenticated

Deploy

gcloud auth login
gcloud config set project <gcp_project_id>

gcloud services enable cloudbuild.googleapis.com run.googleapis.com cloudscheduler.googleapis.com

gcloud run deploy my_pipeline --source . --region us-central1 --no-allow-unauthenticated

gcloud scheduler jobs create http my_pipeline-trigger \
  --schedule="0 */6 * * *" \
  --uri="<cloud_run_url>" \
  --http-method=POST \
  --oidc-service-account-email=<project_number>-compute@developer.gserviceaccount.com \
  --location=us-central1

Important

• Replace <cloud_run_url> with the actual URL from the gcloud run deploy output
• The scheduler uses OIDC authentication to invoke the Cloud Run service
