gcloud-fiters.sh

   List all Google Compute Engine instance resources:

        $ gcloud compute instances list

    List Compute Engine instance resources that have machineType f1-micro:

        $ gcloud compute instances list --filter="machineType:f1-micro"

    List Compute Engine instance resources with zone prefix us and not
    MachineType f1-micro:

        $ gcloud compute instances list \
            --filter="zone ~ ^us AND -machineType:f1-micro"

    List Compute Engine instance resources with tag my-tag:

        $ gcloud compute instances list --filter="tags.items=my-tag"

    List Compute Engine instance resources with tag my-tag or my-other-tag:

        $ gcloud compute instances list \
            --filter="tags.items=(my-tag,my-other-tag)"

    List Compute Engine instance resources with tag my-tag and my-other-tag:

        $ gcloud compute instances list \
            --filter="tags.items=my-tag AND tags.items=my-other-tag"

    List Compute Engine instance resources which either have tag my-tag but not
    my-other-tag or have tag alternative-tag:

        $ gcloud compute instances list \
            --filter="(tags.items=my-tag AND -tags.items=my-other-tag) OR\
         tags.items=alternative-tag"

    List Compute Engine instance resources with label my-label with any value:

        $ gcloud compute instances list --filter="labels.my-label:*"

    List in JSON format those projects where the labels match specific values
    (e.g. label.env is 'test' and label.version is alpha):

        $ gcloud projects list --format="json" \
            --filter="labels.env=test AND labels.version=alpha"

    List projects that were created on and after a specific date:

        $ gcloud projects list \
            --format="table(projectNumber,projectId,createTime)" \
            --filter="createTime>=2018-01-15"

    List projects that were created on and after a specific date and time and
    sort from oldest to newest (with dates and times listed according to the
    local timezone):

        $ gcloud projects list \
            --format="table(projectNumber,projectId,createTime.date(tz=LOCAL\
        ))" --filter="createTime>=2018-01-15T12:00:00" --sort-by=createTime

    List projects that were created within the last two weeks, using ISO8601
    durations:

        $ gcloud projects list \
            --format="table(projectNumber,projectId,createTime)" \
            --filter="createTime>-P2W"
