Create Cloud Functions for Python runtime

This section describes how to create Cloud Functions for the Python runtime.

Create SOULs Functions

Create functions using the souls create functions command.

$ souls create functions method1
✓ Created file ./apps/cf_python39_method1/main.py
✓ Created file ./apps/cf_python39_method1/requirements.txt
✓ Created file ./apps/cf_python39_method1/.env.yaml

Directory structure of SOULs Nodejs Cloud Functions

apps
├── cf_python39_method1
│   ├── main.py
│   ├── requirements.txt
│   ├── .env.yaml

Define the main function in main.py

main.py

def cf-python39-method2(request):
  """Responds to any HTTP request.
  Args:
      request (flask.Request): HTTP request object.
  Returns:
      The response text or any set of values that can be turned into a
      Response object using
      `make_response <http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/1.0/api/#flask.Flask.make_response>`.
  """
  request_json = request.get_json()
  if request.args and 'message' in request.args:
      return request.args.get('message')
  elif request_json and 'message' in request_json:
      return request_json['message']
  else:
      return f'Hello World!'

Run SOULs Python Cloud Functions locally

Install functions-framework .

pip install functions-framework

functions_framework --target=cf-python39-method2

Now access the link below and try calling GET Functions.

http://localhost:8080/cf-python39-method2

Hello World!

If the response is returned, it is successful.

Deploy SOULs Nodejs Cloud Functions

Deploy using the SOULs functions command.

$ cd apps/cf_python39_method1
$ souls functions deploy

Check the URL of SOULs Functions

Check using the SOULs functions command.

$ souls functions url

Check the URLs of all SOULs Functions

Check using the SOULs functions command.

$ souls functions all_url
