Google Cloud SDK is installed in the container but the easiest way to use it is to share your host's Google Cloud SDK config as a Docker volume mount. This of course assumes your host is already configured to access Google Cloud, i.e. $HOME/.config/gcloud already exists in your host with correct configurations. If not, then:

1. Follow [Google Cloud SDK install](Google Cloud SDK) instructions.
2. Run gcloud auth application-default login and follow prompts
