Loading static files with __dirname and path.resolve fails

Openwhisk Action Builder

Library and Commandline tool support for building and deploying OpenWhisk actions.

Note: This package is deprecated and will no longer be worked on. Helix-Deploy is the direct successor (100% CLI-compatible) and allows to build and deploy actions to multiple clouds.

Status

Setup

Add this wrapper as dev dependency:

# Add OpenWhisk wrapper as dependency 
npm add openwhisk-action-builder

add a build script to your package.json:

"scripts": {
  "build": "./node_modules/.bin/wsk-builder"
}

Build the OpenWhisk action

$ npm run build
...
Created action: dist/my-example.zip.

Deploy the OpenWhisk action
```
$ wsk action update ....
```

The deploy parameters can be specifies in the CLI via -p. See below.

CLI

The command line interface wsk-builder can either be invoked via ./node_modules/.bin/wsk-builder. you can also use npx: npx wsk-builder or install it globally npm install -g openwhisk-action-builder.

$ wsk-builder --help

With no arguments,the wsk-builder just bundles your code into the respective action.zip:

Automatically deploy to openwhisk

When given the --deploy, the wskbot will try to deploy it ot OpenWhisk using the settings from ~/.wskprops. Alternatively, you can also set the WSK_NAMESPACE, WSK_AUTH, WSK_APIHOST in your environment or .env file.

$ wsk-builder --deploy --no-hints
ok: created action: dist/my-example.zip.
ok: updated action tripod/my-example

Automatically test the deployed action

In order to quickly test the deployed action, wsk-builder can send a GET request to the action url.

$ wsk-builder --deploy --no-hints --test
ok: created action: dist/my-example.zip.
ok: updated action tripod/my-example
--: requesting: https://runtime.adobe.io/api/v1/web/tripod/default/my-example ...
ok: 200

the --test argument can be a relative url, in case the request should not be made against the root url, eg:

$ wsk-builder --deploy --no-hints --test=/ping
ok: created action: dist/my-example.zip.
ok: updated action tripod/my-example
--: requesting: https://runtime.adobe.io/api/v1/web/tripod/default/my-example/ping ...
ok: 200

Including action parameters

Action parameters can be defined via -p, either as json on env string, or json or env file.

Examples:

# specify as env string
wsk-builder -p MY_TOKEN=1234 -p MY_PWD=foo

# specify as json string
wsk-builder -p '{ "MY_TOKEN": 1234, "MY_PWD": "foo" }'

# specify as env file
wsk-builder -f .env

# specify as json file
wsk-builder -f params.json

# and a combination of the above
wsk-builder -f .env -f params.json -p MY_TOKEN=123

# like in curl, you can include file contents with `@` (also works in .env or .json file)
wsk-builder -p [email protected]

Specifying arguments in the `package.json`

Instead of passing all the arguments via command line, you can also specify them in the package.json in the wsk object. eg:

{
...
  "scripts": {
    "build": "./node_modules/.bin/wsk-builder -v",
    "deploy": "./node_modules/.bin/wsk-builder -v --deploy --test"
  },
  "wsk": {
    "name": "my-test-action",
    "params-file": [
      "secrets/secrets.env"
    ],
    "externals": [
      "fs-extra",
      "js-yaml",
      "dotenv",
      "bunyan",
      "bunyan-loggly",
      "bunyan-syslog",
      "bunyan-format"
    ],
    "docker": "adobe/probot-ow-nodejs8:latest"
  },
...
}

Versioning your action

It can be helpful to version the action name, eg with the @version notation. So for example

"wsk": {
  "name": "[email protected]"
}

In order to automatically use the version of the package.json use:

"wsk": {
  "name": "my-action@${version}"
}

Note: the version is internally taken from the pkgVersion variable, so it can be overridden with the --pkgVersion argument, in case it should be deployed differently.

Automatically create semantic versioning sequence actions

By using the --version-link (-l), the bulider can create action sequences linking to the deployed version, using the semantic versioning notation: latest, major, minor:

Action Name	Specifier	Sequence Name
`[email protected]`	`latest`	`foo@latest`
`[email protected]`	`major`	`foo@v2`
`[email protected]`	`minor`	`[email protected]`

Including static files

Adding static files, i.e. files that are not referenced from the index.js and detected by webpack, can be done via the -s parameter. they are always put into the root directory of the archive.

Example:

# include an image
wsk-builder -s logo.png

If the path points to a directory, it is recursively included.

The files of static files can also be specified in the package.json which allows specifying the destination filename. eg:

...
  "wsk": {
    ...
    "static": [
      "config.json",
      ["assets/logo.png", "static/icon.ong"],
      ["public/", "static/"],
    ]
  }
...

Using the development server

Testing an openwhisk action that was expressified using ActionUtils.expressify() can be done with the DevelopmentServer. Just create a test/dev.js file with:

const { DevelopmentServer } = require('@adobe/openwhisk-action-builder');
const App = require('../src/app.js');

async function run() {
  const devServer = await new DevelopmentServer(App).init();
  return devServer.start();
}

// eslint-disable-next-line no-console
run().catch(console.error);

and run node test/dev.js.

Using development params with the server

Sometimes it might be useful to specify action params that would be provided during deployment but are not available during development. those can be specified by a dev-params-file wsk property. those parameters are loaded an applied to every action call. eg:

...
  "wsk": {
    ...
    "dev-params-file": ".dev-secrets.env"
  }
...

Notes

Bundling

The action is created using webpack to create bundle for the sources and then creates a zip archive with the bundle, a package.json, the private key files and the .env.
