DESCRIPTION
    Create a new AlloyDB cluster within a given project.

EXAMPLES
    To create a new cluster, run:

        $ gcloud alloydb clusters create my-cluster --region=us-central1 \
            --password=postgres

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
     CLUSTER
        AlloyDB cluster ID

REQUIRED FLAGS
     --password=PASSWORD
        Initial postgres user password to set up during cluster creation.

     --region=REGION
        Regional location (e.g. asia-east1, us-east1). See the full list of
        regions at https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/instance-locations.

OPTIONAL FLAGS
     --allocated-ip-range-name=ALLOCATED_IP_RANGE_NAME
        Name of the allocated IP range for the private IP AlloyDB cluster, for
        example: "google-managed-services-default". If set, the instance IPs
        for this cluster will be created in the allocated range. The range name
        must comply with RFC 1035. Specifically, the name must be 1-63
        characters long and match the regular expression
        [a-z]([-a-z0-9][a-z0-9])?.

     --async
        Return immediately, without waiting for the operation in progress to
        complete.

     --database-version=DATABASE_VERSION
        Database version of the cluster. DATABASE_VERSION must be one of:
        POSTGRES_14, POSTGRES_15.

        network. For an example host project, 'testproject', and shared
        network, 'testsharednetwork', this would be of the
        form:--network=projects/testproject/global/networks/testsharednetwork
