Serverless Google Cloud Functions Plugin

This plugin enables support for Google Cloud Functions within the Serverless Framework.

Why is this fork AWESOME?

This repo is a fork of the official Serverless Google Cloud Functions, but adds extra features

Upgrade to Google Cloud Functions V1 and NodeJS V8

Google Cloud Functions recently got out of beta. This fork now uses their v1 instead of v1beta1. It also supports the NodeJS V8 environment, which is the default one.

To override, you can set the provider.runtime: nodejs6 option.

Region

Since it's out of beta, it now supports more than one region.

You can set it with the provier.region: us-central1 option.

See https://cloud.google.com/functions/docs/locations for supported locations.

Stating

In the serverless.yml, you can add prependService and prependStage to the provider key.

For example, the configuration below

service: users

provider:
  name: google
  runtime: nodejs6
  project: <project-id>
  credentials: <credentials>
  stage: purple
  prependService: true
  prependStage: true

functions:
  login:
    handler: login
    entryPoint: login
    events:
      - http: path

will deploy your Google Cloud Function with:

name: my-awesome-service-purple-login

handler: login // Note that the handler is not affected

trigger: https://us-central1-<project-id>.cloudfunctions.net/users-purple-login

Retry on Failure

It also adds an option to retry background jobs upon failure:

functions:
  email:
    handler: email
    entryPoint: send
    events:
      - event:
          eventType: providers/cloud.pubsub/eventTypes/topic.publish
          resource: projects/${self:provider.project}/topics/${self:provider.stage}-new-account
          retry: true

Environment Variables

Use the environment option to set environment variables.

It can be set at the provider level, or at the function level, or at both.

service: users

provider:
  name: google
  runtime: nodejs6
  project: <project-id>
  credentials: <credentials>
  stage: purple
  prependService: true
  prependStage: true
  environment:
    KEY: my-dev-key
    LANG: ca

functions:
  login:
    handler: login
    entryPoint: login
    events:
      - http: path
    environment:
      KEY: my-prod-key

The function login will have the environment variables as:

KEY: my-prod-key
LANG: ca
