NicholasKao1029 / Generic-GCloud-function

TODO

create script to create the generic cloud func repo based on the parameters below.

general flow would be

• Based on this repo
• Ask user for
  • FUNCTION_NAME
  • FUNCTION_REGION
  • run time
  • exported function name (probably can just keep the same for simplicity)

YAML FILE

two variables that need to be initialized

• FUNCTION_NAME
• FUNCTION_REGION

package.json

start function

• need to install

npm install --save-dev @google-cloud/functions-framework

deploy documentation

"start": "npx functions-framework --target=${EXPORTED_FUNCTION_NAME} [--signature-type=http]",

deploy function

• note that --entry-point is only neccessary if GCLOUD_FUNCTION_NAME is different to EXPORTED_FUNCTION_NAME
• the runtime should probably be allowed to be configured

deploy documentation

"deploy": "gcloud functions deploy ${GCLOUD_FUNCTION_NAME} --entry-point ${EXPORTED_FUNCTION_NAME} --runtime nodejs12 --trigger-http --allow-unauthenticated"

environment variables

env var documentation

• There is a .env.yaml file that can be used to denote the appropriate environment variables although the default is that it will be ignored by git and gcloud git.

• There is further documentation about environment variables that allow for cmd line insertion and removal of environment variables
