Standard Function

Installation

you need to install Node (> 10.9), and npm first.

npm install @midwayjs/faas-cli -g

Then use f -v to check if it's success.

create a function

first of all, just type:

f create

Then, let's select faas-standard:

Generating boerplate...
? Hello, traveller.
  Which template do you like? …

 ⊙ Boilerplate
❯ faas-standard - A serverless boilerplate for aliyun fc, tencent scf and so on
  faas-layer - A serverless runtime layer boilerplate

 ⊙ Examples
  faas-react - A serverless example with react
  faas-vue - A serverless example with vue

As we see:

Install dependencies.

npm install

Directory Structure

Here is the most simplifying structure of one function. Including standard spec file f.yml and a classic TypeScript project directory.

.
├── f.yml           # standard spec file
├── package.json    # project dependencies
├── src             # resources code dir
│   └── index.ts    # function entry, demo
└── tsconfig.json   # config for tsc

Function Code

In Midway function is forming by class:

import { Func, Inject, Provide } from '@midwayjs/decorator';
import { FaaSContext, FunctionHandler } from '@midwayjs/faas';

@Provide()						// The identity for IoC container to scan
@Func('index.handler')					// Function Handler identity
export class IndexService implements FunctionHandler {

  @Inject()
  ctx: FaaSContext;  					// Function context

  async handler() {					// Function body
    return 'hello world';				// return value
  }
}

Function Develop

Local invoke

$ f invoke -f index

Result:

--------- result start --------

"hello world"

--------- result end --------

Deploy

First check f.yml file, ensure your provider.name is aws. And the f.yml would seem like:

service:
  name: serverless-hello-world				## Service name

provider:
  name: aws						## The provider you deploy
  
functions:						## Definition of functions
  index:						   ## first function name `index`
    handler: index.handler				   ## function entry
    events:						   ## event triggers
      - http:						     ## http trigger with GET /* support
          method: get
package:						## built artifact name
  artifact: code.zip

Then just go:

f deploy

Sample output:

Start package
