oci-objectstorage-create-par-python

Function that creates a PAR

This function creates a PAR (Pre-Authenticated Request) for a bucket in Object Storage.

As you make your way through this tutorial, look out for this icon . Whenever you see it, it's time for you to perform an action.

Prerequisites

Before you deploy this sample function, make sure you have run step A, B and C of the Oracle Functions Quick Start Guide for Cloud Shell

• A - Set up your tenancy
• B - Create application
• C - Set up your Cloud Shell dev environment

List Applications

Assuming your have successfully completed the prerequisites, you should see your application in the list of applications.

fn ls apps

Create or Update your Dynamic Group

In order to use other OCI Services, your function must be part of a dynamic group. For information on how to create a dynamic group, refer to the documentation.

When specifying the Matching Rules, we suggest matching all functions in a compartment with:

ALL {resource.type = 'fnfunc', resource.compartment.id = 'ocid1.compartment.oc1..aaaaaxxxxx'}

Please check the Accessing Other Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Resources from Running Functions for other Matching Rules options.

Create or Update IAM Policies

Create a new policy that allows the dynamic group to manage compute instances. We will grant manage access to a specific bucket and objects in that bucket for a given compartment.

Your policy should look something like this:

Allow dynamic-group <dynamic-group-name> to manage buckets in compartment <compartment-name> where target.bucket.name=<bucket-name>
Allow dynamic-group <dynamic-group-name> to manage objects in compartment <compartment-name> where target.bucket.name=<bucket-name>

Review and customize your function

Review the following files in the current folder:

• the code of the function, func.py
• its dependencies, requirements.txt
• the function metadata, func.yaml

Deploy the function

In Cloud Shell, run the fn deploy command to build the function and its dependencies as a Docker image, push the image to OCIR, and deploy the function to Oracle Functions in your application.

fn -v deploy --app <app-name>

Set the function configuration values

The function requires the config value bucket-name and lifetime to be set.

Use the fn CLI to set the config value:

fn config function <app-name> <function-name> bucket-name <bucket-name>
fn config function <app-name> <function-name> lifetime <PAR-lifetime-in-minutes>

e.g.

fn config function myapp oci-objectstorage-create-par-python bucket-name 'my-bucket'
fn config function myapp oci-objectstorage-create-par-python lifetime '1'

Invoke the function

The function requires the name of the PAR in the payload to be invoked.

echo '{"PAR name": <PAR name> }' | fn invoke <app-name> oci-objectstorage-create-par-python

e.g.:

echo '{"PAR name": "myPAR" }' | fn invoke myapp oci-objectstorage-create-par-python

Upon success, the function returns the PAR URL.
