Inspiration
It was a bit hard for me to use google cloud on my phone. I wanted an easy way to control google cloud without using my laptop. So I made an app to easily access google cloud from my Whatsapp messenger
What it does
It lets you control your google cloud shell on your WhatsApp using Twilio. You can Perform various google cloud tasks easily like making Cloud Storage Buckets, Making VM Instances on Compute Engine or making a cluster on Google Kubernetes Engine
How I built it
I first made a python script to get requests from Whatsapp using Twilio. Then I deployed it on the google cloud compute engine VM so I could easily control it using the Twilio requests using my Whatsapp
Challenges I ran into
The time was a bit less. I had to make a video and think of an idea alone. It was difficult thinking of an idea so fast and starting the project.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Finished it in time somehow
What I learned
Learnt more about the Google Cloud Platform and Twilio
How to use it
For Setting the app please follow the instructions in the Github repo
To Create a Cloud Storage Bucket just type "createbucket "
To Create a VM Instance just type "createinstance "
For Creating the Cluster in GKE just type "createcluster "
You can also execute any command in the google cloud shell by typing "gcloud "
What's next for Google Cloud Whatsapp Control
Going to add SSH control on Whatsapp soon
