Cloud Functions is an event-driven serverless compute platform. Cloud Functions allows you to write your code without worrying about provisioning resources or scaling to handle changing requirements. This repository provide you a glimpse of

• How to deploy your backend as Cloud Functions in GCP
• Testing the cloud functions with Postman and Newman
• Automate the deploying process with Cloud Build
• Slack integration to get notification after each build

Steps to Deploy and Test

• Signup to GCP, Its nearly free for a year!
• Install the gcloud command line tool as per your operating system
• Clone this repository
• Install the dependencies

npm i

• Run the backend locally to check everything works fine

npm start

• if all runs well, navigate to the browser and open http://localhost:8081/api/portfolio. It should show the json response.

• Run unit test with command

npm run test:unit

• Stop the local service and deploy it to the GCP

gcloud beta functions deploy myWebsiteBackend --trigger-http --runtime nodejs10

• Once the function got deployed you will receive the endpoint printed in the `console. Grab the endpoint

• Push this as a new repository in your own Github/any-other source code management space.

• Create a trigger with installing github Could Build App for your repository.

• Now go to the Cloud Build console and navigate to Trigger section. Create a new trigger of your choice. Just keep in mind to provide a user substitute value with your grabbed url in earlier function deployment stage

• Now, trigger the run or push a commit to your repo. You can see the magic happening in the newly triggered build.
