# Tutorial 1: Python Function w/ Input (3 minutes)
This example will show you how to test and deploy Python code to Oracle Functions. It will also demonstrate passing data in through stdin.
### First, run the following commands:
```sh
# Initialize your function creating a func.yaml file
fn init <DOCKERHUB_USERNAME>/hello-python
# Test your function.
# This will run inside a container exactly how it will on the server. It will also install and vendor dependencies from Gemfile
fn run
# Now try with an input
cat sample.payload.json | fn run
# Deploy your functions to the Oracle Functions server (default localhost:8080)
# This will create a route to your function as well
fn deploy myapp
```
### Now call your function:
```sh
curl http://localhost:8080/r/myapp/hello-python
```
Or call from a browser: [http://localhost:8080/r/myapp/hello-python](http://localhost:8080/r/myapp/hello-python)
And now with the JSON input:
```sh
curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d @sample.payload.json http://localhost:8080/r/myapp/hello-python
```
That's it! Our `fn deploy` packaged our function and sent it to the Oracle Functions server. Try editing `func.py`
and then doing another `fn deploy`.
### Note on Dependencies
In Python, we create a [requirements](https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/user_guide/) file in your function directory then `fn deploy` will build and deploy with these dependencies.
# In Review
1. We piped JSON data into the function at the command line
```sh
cat sample.payload.json | fn run
```
2. We received our function input through **stdin**
```python
obj = json.loads(sys.stdin.read())
```
3. We wrote our output to **stdout**
```python
print "Hello", name, "!"
```
4. We sent **stderr** to the server logs
```python
sys.stderr.write("Starting Python Function\n")
```
