serverless-userpics VS faasd

def random_avatar(): name = str(uuid.uuid4())[:8] with open(f"media/avatars/{name}.png", "wb+") as f: url = requests.get("https://userpics.devclad.com/api/getpic") response = requests.get(url.text, stream=True) if not response.ok: raise Exception("Could not get avatar") for block in response.iter_content(1024): if not block: break f.write(block) return f"avatars/{name}.png"

That's it. Feel free to open feature requests or whatever. The repo is here - github.com/arthtyagi/serverless-userpics

If you don't want to start with Kubernetes, faasd (https://github.com/openfaas/faasd) might be worth a look.

I found OpenFaaS and its little sibling faasd. To my understanding they expose single functions through a REST API for easy interfacing. It sounds nice but OpenFaaS is overkill and I had trouble setting up faasd.

Have you seen faasd from openfaas? Easier to setup and doesn‘t require a full blown kubernetes cluster: https://github.com/openfaas/faasd

First of all, you need faas-cli in your client local machine. You should get the binary and set it to your path. If you are on linux or mac machine, moving the binary into "/usr/local/bin" will work. For windows machines, you need to set environment variables in Control Panel>System and Security>System>Advanced System Settings(single-binary-faas-cli)

Have you considered OpenFaaS - https://github.com/openfaas/faasd

I am on the same ship, after some digging around I'm considering OpenFaaS, checkout - https://github.com/openfaas/faasd

If you use https://github.com/openfaas/faasd, you can skip the whole Kubernetes setup as well.

There is also FaaSd from OpenFaaS for people not using Kubernetes. https://github.com/openfaas/faasd
