gcloud alpha blockchain-node-engine nodes create - create a Blockchain Node Engine node

gcloud alpha blockchain-node-engine nodes create (NODE_NAME : --location=LOCATION) [--async] [--blockchain-type=BLOCKCHAIN_TYPE; default="ETHEREUM"] [--consensus-client=CONSENSUS_CLIENT; default="LIGHTHOUSE"] [--execution-client=EXECUTION_CLIENT; default="GETH"] [--network=NETWORK; default="MAINNET"] [--node-type=NODE_TYPE; default="FULL"] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG …]

If run asynchronously with --async, exits after printing one operation name that can be used to poll the status of the creation via:

Node resource - Arguments and flags that specify the Blockchain Node Engine node you want to create. The arguments in this group can be used to specify the attributes of this resource. (NOTE) Some attributes are not given arguments in this group but can be set in other ways.

To set the project attribute:

• provide the argument node_name on the command line with a fully specified name;
• set the property core/project;
• provide the argument --project on the command line.

This must be specified.

NODE_NAME

ID of the node or fully qualified identifier for the node.

To set the node_name attribute:

• provide the argument node_name on the command line.

This positional argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

--location=LOCATION

Location of the blockchain node resource. To set the location attribute:

• provide the argument node_name on the command line with a fully specified name;
• provide the argument --location on the command line;
• set the property web3/location.

--async

Return immediately, without waiting for the operation in progress to complete.

--blockchain-type=BLOCKCHAIN_TYPE; default="ETHEREUM"

Blockchain type the node will connect run on. BLOCKCHAIN_TYPE must be (only one value is supported):

ethereum

Ethereum blockchain.

--consensus-client=CONSENSUS_CLIENT; default="LIGHTHOUSE"

Consensus client for Ethereum nodes. CONSENSUS_CLIENT must be (only one value is supported):

lighthouse

Lighthouse execution client.

--execution-client=EXECUTION_CLIENT; default="GETH"

Execution client for Ethereum nodes. EXECUTION_CLIENT must be (only one value is supported):

geth

Geth execution client.

--network=NETWORK; default="MAINNET"

Blockchain network the node will connect to. NETWORK must be one of:

goerli

Goerli & Prater Ethereum test network.

holesky

Holesky Ethereum test network.

mainnet

Primary Ethereum network, often referred to as mainnet.

sepolia

Sepolia Ethereum test network.

--node-type=NODE_TYPE; default="FULL"

Node type - defines whether the node retains only recent data or an archival history. NODE_TYPE must be (only one value is supported):

full

Node retains full history required for consensus validation, however does not retain archival data beyond that.
