Example 1: Using a Timer Trigger to Periodically Download Files from an OBS Bucket

Scenario

This example guides you through the procedure for creating a Python 2.7 function and associating a timer trigger with it to periodically download files from an OBS bucket.

For details about how to call APIs, see Calling APIs.

Prerequisites

  • You have uploaded files to OBS and have recorded the file names, the bucket in which the files are stored, and the address of the bucket.
  • You have created an agency in IAM to allow FunctionGraph to access OBS and have recorded the name of the agency.

General Procedure

Create a FunctionGraph function and associate a timer trigger with it to periodically download files from an OBS bucket. The procedure is as follows:

  1. Creating a Function: Create a function for downloading files.
  2. Modifying the Metadata of a Function: Modify the OBS address, OBS bucket name, and file name in the function configuration.
  3. Executing a Function Synchronously: Verify whether the function can successfully download files from the OBS bucket.
  4. Creating a Trigger: Create a timer trigger to periodically download files.

    Record the URN of the function, that is, the value of func_urn in the response.

Step 2: Modify the OBS Address, Bucket Name, and File Name in the Function Configurations

URI: PUT /v2/{project_id}/fgs/functions/{function_urn}/config

    }

    function_urn indicates the function URN recorded in Step 1: Create a Function for Downloading Files from OBS; obs_address indicates the OBS address; srcBucket indicates the name of an OBS bucket, srcObjName indicates a file name, and xrole indicates an agency name.

    }

Step 3: Test the Function

URI: POST /v2/{project_id}/fgs/functions/{function_urn}/invocations

For details, see Executing a Function Synchronously.

  • Sample request
    POST  https://{Endpoint}/v2/{project_id}/fgs/functions/{function_urn}/invocations
    {
     "message": "download file"
    }

    function_urn indicates the function URN recorded in Step 1: Create a Function for Downloading Files from OBS.

  • Sample response
    "The object downloaded successfully from OBS, and the size is 14 KB"

Step 4: Create a Timer Trigger to Periodically Download Files from OBS

URI: POST /v2/{project_id}/fgs/triggers/{function_urn}

For details, see Creating a Trigger.

  • Sample request
    POST  https://{Endpoint}/v2/{project_id}/fgs/triggers/{function_urn}
    {
     "event_data": {
      "name": "Timer-download",
      "schedule_type": "Rate",
      "schedule": "1d"
     },
     "event_type_code": "MessageCreated",
     "trigger_status": "ACTIVE",
     "trigger_type_code": "TIMER"
    }

    function_urn indicates the function URN recorded in Step 1: Create a Function for Downloading Files from OBS.

    The preceding example request is used to download files from the specified OBS bucket every day.
