# google\_compute\_image
Creates a bootable VM image resource for Google Compute Engine from an existing
tarball. For more information see [the official documentation](https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/images) and
[API](https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/reference/latest/images).
## Example Usage
```hcl
resource "google_compute_image" "bootable-image" {
name = "my-custom-image"
raw_disk {
source = "https://storage.googleapis.com/my-bucket/my-disk-image-tarball.tar.gz"
}
}
resource "google_compute_instance" "vm" {
name = "vm-from-custom-image"
machine_type = "n1-standard-1"
zone = "us-east1-c"
disk {
image = "${google_compute_image.bootable-image.self_link}"
}
network_interface {
network = "default"
}
}
```
## Argument Reference
The following arguments are supported: (Note that one of either source_disk or
raw_disk is required)
* `name` - (Required) A unique name for the resource, required by GCE.
Changing this forces a new resource to be created.
* `source_disk` - The URL of a disk that will be used as the source of the
image. Changing this forces a new resource to be created.
* `raw_disk` - The raw disk that will be used as the source of the image.
Changing this forces a new resource to be created. Structure is documented
below.
* `create_timeout` - Configurable timeout in minutes for creating images. Default is 4 minutes.
Changing this forces a new resource to be created.
The `raw_disk` block supports:
* `source` - (Required) The full Google Cloud Storage URL where the disk
image is stored.
* `sha1` - (Optional) SHA1 checksum of the source tarball that will be used
to verify the source before creating the image.
* `container_type` - (Optional) The format used to encode and transmit the
block device. TAR is the only supported type and is the default.
- - -
* `project` - (Optional) The project in which the resource belongs. If it
is not provided, the provider project is used.
* `description` - (Optional) The description of the image to be created
* `family` - (Optional) The name of the image family to which this image belongs.
## Attributes Reference
In addition to the arguments listed above, the following computed attributes are
exported:
* `self_link` - The URI of the created resource.
