Setting up doctl

  • Install doctl manually, or via choco. choco install doctl
  • Authorize doctl. doctl auth init --context customname
  • Switch to the new identity context. doctl auth switch --context customname
  • Install the DigitalOcean sandbox: doctl sls install
  • Connect to your sandbox: doctl sandbox connect

Convert from Template to Function

  • Modify .do/deploy.template.yaml
    • Edit functions/github/repo to your desired repo user/repo.
    • Edit functions/name to your desired function name.
    • Edit name to your desired do function name.

For more details see App Specification Reference and How To - Manage Functions

Project.yml

  • In order to have the unmodified body be passed to your function, be sure to set the following in project.yml.
packages:
  - name: test-serverless
    actions:
      - name: test
        runtime: 'python:default'
        web: raw

Testing - Deploy to DO Function

If you have dependencies in any of the actions, you will need to implement build.<sh|cmd> scripts for your platform.

doctl sls deploy . --incremental

If you'd rather just implement different platform build scripts, then use the following command to keep to one.

doctl sls deploy . --remote-build

Environment Variables

If you have environment variables, add this flag to the deploy command. --env .env

Watch

You may also use incremental directory watching to avoid having to run deployment automatically.

doctl sls watch .

Errors

Error: While deploying action 'some-service/action': Action is named in the config but does not exist in the project

This means that you've forgotten to rename the folder structures that your function lives in. Ex. packagtes/digitalocean-serverless/test.

Deploying to an App

  • Before you deploy to an app you'll need to make the build scripts executable if you haven't already. Run git update-index --chmod=+x path/to/build.ext for each of the builds scripts.

Renaming an App

Renaming Steps

  • Rename the function folder. packages/myservice/function -> packages/newservice/newfuncname
  • Update project.yml name fields.
  • Update .do/deploy.template.yaml name fields.
