I am a bit confused about how I can authenticate the gcloud sdk on a docker container. Right now, my docker file includes the following:

#Install the google SDK
RUN curl https://dl.google.com/dl/cloudsdk/release/google-cloud-sdk.tar.gz > /tmp/google-cloud-sdk.tar.gz
RUN mkdir -p /usr/local/gcloud
RUN tar -C /usr/local/gcloud -xvf /tmp/google-cloud-sdk.tar.gz
RUN /usr/local/gcloud/google-cloud-sdk/install.sh
RUN /usr/local/gcloud/google-cloud-sdk/bin/gcloud init

However, I am confused how I would authenticate? When I run gcloud auth application-default login on my machine, it opens a new tab in chrome which prompts me to login. How would I input my credentials on the docker container if it opens a new tab in google chrome in the container?

google-cloud-sdk docker-compose docker

You can map your local Google SDK credentials into the image. [Source].

Begin by signing in using:

$ gcloud auth application-default login

Then add the following to your docker-compose.yaml:

volumes:
  - ~/.config/gcloud:/root/.config/gcloud
