Are there any plans on adding the abiltity to create LoadBalancers #1604

Thanks for the suggestion, this sounds like a great idea. As you probably know, the Compute Engine API is quite large. We are many APIs behind in what we support so far (ref: #1073), so we're asking for help fully fleshing out our support. This would be another place we could improve, so I've added the help wanted label to this issue. A PR would be great to help us get this feature implemented quickly.

Hello I would like to be able to programmatically create LoadBalancers in NodeJs.
Is there a plan on wrapping the networking API to allow for me to create the required pieces?
In a perfect world I want to make one call to create a LoadBalancer. This would allow for me to pass in the HealthCheck info, the backend service info, and get back the IP of the LoadBalancer. Preferably it would be nice if I could get the IP address back on the call, and then wait for the loadbalancer to get created asynchronously. This would allow for me to take the IP and create a DNS record with it, before the LoadBalancer has actually been created. Saving overall time of stack creation.
