Overview

Based on distantcam's csharp-httprequest-template.

OpenFaaS F# HTTP Template

This repository contains the template for OpenFaaS using the upgraded of-watchdog which allows for higher throughput. It has the following features:

• Based on .NET 7.0
• Uses the excellent Giraffe functional wrapper over ASP.NET
• Everything else is extremely minimal and can be customized to fit your needs.

Using the template

First, pull the template with the faas CLI and create a new function:

$ faas template store pull https://github.com/zakaluka/fsharp-httprequest-template
$ faas-cli new --lang fsharp-httprequest <function name>

In the directory that was created, using the name of your function, you'll find parseurl.fs. It provides a sample function that you can replace (in the run method).

You are able to add packages to your function using the dotnet add package syntax. The packages will be added to your final function's container automatically.
