Kyle Weaver commented on BEAM-8472:
-----------------------------------
> Dataflow doesn't currently support the Go SDK so this won't be prioritized
> above current work any time soon.
Understood.
> Just to be clear, the protocol is to check the environment variables, and
> then execute the gcloud command?
Yes, that's correct. For reference (helpful for testing):

> Get default GCP region from gcloud

> Currently, we default to us-central1 if --region flag is not set. The Google
> Cloud SDK generally tries to get a default value in this case for
> convenience, which we should follow.

> Update 11/12: this is complete for Python and Java, Go remains.
