Automated: Migrate {target_path} from gsutil to gcloud storage

This CL is part of the on going effort to migrate from the legacy gsutil tool to the new and improved gcloud storage command-line interface.
gcloud storage is the recommended and modern tool for interacting with Google Cloud Storage, offering better performance, unified authentication, and a more consistent command structure with other gcloud components. 🚀

Automation Details

This change was generated automatically by an agent that targets users of gsutil.
The transformations applied are based on the gsutil to gcloud storage migration guide.

⚠️ Action Required: Please Review and Test Carefully

While we have based the automation on the migration guide, every use case is unique.
It is crucial that you thoroughly test these changes in environments appropriate to your use-case before merging.
Be aware of potential differences between gsutil and gcloud storage that could impact your workflows.
For instance, the structure of command output may have changed, requiring updates to any scripts that parse it. Similarly, command behavior can differ subtly; the gcloud storage rsync command has a different file deletion logic than gsutil rsync, which could lead to unintended file deletions.

Our migration guides can help guide you through a list of mappings and some notable differences between the two tools.

Standard presubmit tests are run as part of this CL's workflow. If you need to target an additional test workflow or require assistance with testing, please let us know.

Please verify that all your Cloud Storage operations continue to work as expected to avoid any potential disruptions in production.

Support and Collaboration

The GCS CLI team is here to help! If you encounter any issues, have a complex use case that this automated change doesn't cover, or face any other blockers, please don't hesitate to reach out.
We are happy to work with you to test and adjust these changes as needed.

Code Review

This pull request automatically migrates gsutil commands to gcloud storage in the Django sample's end-to-end test configuration files. The migration of the bucket creation command is correct. However, I've identified an issue with the cleanup step. The migrated command for deleting the storage bucket only empties it, but doesn't delete the bucket itself, which could lead to resource leaks. I've provided a suggestion to ensure the bucket is fully deleted. Please review the suggested change.

./retry.sh "gsutil ls gs://${_STORAGE_BUCKET}" \
"gsutil -m rm -r gs://${_STORAGE_BUCKET}"
./retry.sh "gcloud storage ls gs://${_STORAGE_BUCKET}" \
"gcloud storage rm --recursive gs://${_STORAGE_BUCKET}"

The migrated command gcloud storage rm --recursive gs://${_STORAGE_BUCKET} only deletes the contents of the bucket, not the bucket itself. The original gsutil rm -r command was likely incorrect as it would fail when used on a bucket URI. While this change fixes the command execution error, it doesn't complete the cleanup, leaving an empty bucket behind. To prevent resource leaks, the bucket itself should be deleted. I suggest chaining the bucket deletion command after emptying it. Using /** ensures all object versions are deleted, which is important if versioning is enabled on the bucket.

          "gcloud storage rm --recursive gs://${_STORAGE_BUCKET}/** && gcloud storage buckets delete gs://${_STORAGE_BUCKET}"
