this adds `FN_` in front of env vars that we are injecting into calls, for namespacing reasons. this will break code relying on the current variables but if we want to do this, the chance is now really. alternatively, we could maintain both the old and new for a short period of time to ease the adjustment (speak now...). updated the docs, as well. this also adds tests for the notoriously finicky configuration of the env vars and headers when setting up a call. this won't test the container / request for the call is actually receiving them, but it's a decent start and will yell loudly enough upon formatting breakage. added back FXLB_WAIT to a couple places so the lb can ride again one thing for feedback: headers are a bit confusing at the moment (not from this change, but that behavior is kept here for now), we've a chance to fix them. currently, headers in the request __are not__ prefixed with `FN_HEADER_`, i.e. 'hot'+sync containers will receive `Content-Length` in the http request headers, yet a 'cold' container from the same request would receive `FN_HEADER_Content-Length` in its environment. This is additionally confusing because if this function were hot+async, it would receive `FN_HEADER_Content-Length` in the headers, where just changing it to sync goes back to `Content-Length`. If that was confusing, then point made ;) I propose to remove the `FN_HEADER_` prefix for request headers in the environment, so that the request headers and env will match, as request headers already are of this format (not prefixed). please lmk thoughts here Would be fine with going back to the 'plain' vars too, then this patch will mostly just be adding tests and changing `FN_FORMAT` to `FORMAT`. obviously, from the examples, it's a bit ingrained now. anyway, entirely up to y'all.
Blog API Example
A simple serverless blog API
Requirements
- Remote MongoDB instance (for example heroku)
- Running Oracle Functions API
Development
Building image locally
# SET BELOW TO YOUR DOCKER HUB USERNAME
USERNAME=YOUR_DOCKER_HUB_USERNAME
# build it
docker run --rm -v "$PWD":/go/src/github.com/fnproject/hello -w /go/src/github.com/fnproject/hello funcy/go:dev go build -o function
docker build -t $USERNAME/func-blog .
Publishing to DockerHub
# tagging
docker run --rm -v "$PWD":/app treeder/bump patch
docker tag $USERNAME/func-blog:latest $USERNAME/func-blog:`cat VERSION`
# pushing to docker hub
docker push $USERNAME/func-blog
Running it on Oracle Functions
First you need a running Oracle Functions API
First, let's define this environment variables
# Set your Function server address
# Eg. 127.0.0.1:8080
FUNCAPI=YOUR_FUNCTIONS_ADDRESS
# Set your mongoDB server address
# Eg. 127.0.0.1:27017/blog
MONGODB=YOUR_MONGODB_ADDRESS
Testing image
./test.sh
Running with Oracle Functions
With this command we are going to create an application with name blog and also defining the app configuration DB.
curl -X POST --data '{
"app": {
"name": "blog",
"config": { "DB": "'$MONGODB'" }
}
}' http://$FUNCAPI/v1/apps
Now, we can create our blog routes:
/posts- to create (authenticated) and list posts/posts/:id- to read post/token- to get a JWT
curl -X POST --data '{
"route": {
"image": "'$USERNAME'/func-blog",
"path": "/posts"
}
}' http://$FUNCAPI/v1/apps/blog/routes
curl -X POST --data '{
"route": {
"image": "'$USERNAME'/func-blog",
"path": "/posts/:id"
}
}' http://$FUNCAPI/v1/apps/blog/routes
curl -X POST --data '{
"route": {
"image": "'$USERNAME'/func-blog",
"path": "/token"
}
}' http://$FUNCAPI/v1/apps/blog/routes
Testing function
Now that we created our Oracle Functions route, let's test our routes
curl -X POST http://$FUNCAPI/r/blog/posts
This command should return {"error":"Invalid authentication"} because we aren't sending any token.
Authentication
Creating a blog user
First let's create our blog user. In this example an user test with password test.
docker run --rm -e DB=$MONGODB -e NEWUSER='{ "username": "test", "password": "test" }' $USERNAME/functions-blog
Getting authorization token
Now, to get authorized to post in our Blog API endpoints we must request a new token with a valid user.
curl -X POST --data '{ "username": "test", "password": "test" }' http://$FUNCAPI/r/blog/token
This will output a token like this:
{"token":"eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJleHAiOiIyMDE2LTA5LTAxVDAwOjQzOjMxLjQwNjY5NTIxNy0wMzowMCIsInVzZXIiOiJ0ZXN0In0.aPKdH3QPauutFsFbSdQyF6q1hqTAas_BCbSYi5mFiSU"}
Let's save that token in the environment
BLOG_TOKEN=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJleHAiOiIyMDE2LTA5LTAxVDAwOjQzOjMxLjQwNjY5NTIxNy0wMzowMCIsInVzZXIiOiJ0ZXN0In0.aPKdH3QPauutFsFbSdQyF6q1hqTAas_BCbSYi5mFiSU
Posting in your blog
curl -X POST --header "Authorization: Bearer $BLOG_TOKEN" --data '{ "title": "My New Post", "body": "Hello world!", "user": "test" }' http://$FUNCAPI/r/blog/posts
