Methods

create(config)

Create a firewall.

Example

const Compute = require('@google-cloud/compute');
const compute = new Compute();
const firewall = compute.firewall('tcp-3000');

const config = {
  // ...
};

firewall.create(config, function(err, firewall, operation, apiResponse) {
  // `firewall` is a Firewall object.

  // `operation` is an Operation object that can be used to check the
  // status of the request.
});

//-
// If the callback is omitted, we'll return a Promise.
//-
firewall.create(config).then(function(data) {
  const firewall = data[0];
  const operation = data[1];
  const apiResponse = data[2];
});

See Compute#createFirewall.

delete([callback])

Delete the firewall.

Example

const Compute = require('@google-cloud/compute');
const compute = new Compute();
const firewall = compute.firewall('tcp-3000');

firewall.delete(function(err, operation, apiResponse) {
  // `operation` is an Operation object that can be used to check the status
  // of the request.
});

//-
// If the callback is omitted, we'll return a Promise.
//-
firewall.delete().then(function(data) {
  const operation = data[0];
  const apiResponse = data[1];
});

Parameters

The callback function.

Values in callback have the following properties:

Name Type Optional Description

err

error

 

An error returned while making this request.

Value can be null.

exists(callback)

Check if the firewall exists.

Example

const Compute = require('@google-cloud/compute');
const compute = new Compute();
const firewall = compute.firewall('tcp-3000');

firewall.exists(function(err, exists) {});

//-
// If the callback is omitted, we'll return a Promise.
//-
firewall.exists().then(function(data) {
  const exists = data[0];
});

Parameters

Name Type Optional Description

callback

function()

 

The callback function.

Values in callback have the following properties:

Name Type Optional Description

err

error

 

An error returned while making this request.

Value can be null.

exists

boolean

 

Whether the firewall exists or not.

get([options])

Get a firewall if it exists.

You may optionally use this to "get or create" an object by providing an object with autoCreate set to true. Any extra configuration that is normally required for the create method must be contained within this object as well.

Example

const Compute = require('@google-cloud/compute');
const compute = new Compute();
const firewall = compute.firewall('tcp-3000');

firewall.get(function(err, firewall, apiResponse) {
  // `firewall` is a Firewall object.
});

//-
// If the callback is omitted, we'll return a Promise.
//-
firewall.get().then(function(data) {
  const firewall = data[0];
  const apiResponse = data[1];
});

Parameters

Name Type Optional Description

options

options

Yes

Configuration object.

Values in options have the following properties:

Name Type Optional Description

autoCreate

boolean

 

Automatically create the object if it does not exist. Default: false

getMetadata([callback])

Get the firewall's metadata.

Example

const Compute = require('@google-cloud/compute');
const compute = new Compute();
const firewall = compute.firewall('tcp-3000');

firewall.getMetadata(function(err, metadata, apiResponse) {});

//-
// If the callback is omitted, we'll return a Promise.
//-
firewall.getMetadata().then(function(data) {
  const metadata = data[0];
  const apiResponse = data[1];
});

Parameters

Name Type Optional Description

callback

function()

Yes

The callback function.

};

firewall.setMetadata(metadata, function(err, operation, apiResponse) {
  // `operation` is an Operation object that can be used to check the status
