huawei-cloud-functiongraph-function-create FAQ
Python3.9, Node.js14.18, Java8, and Go1.x are supported. Each has a specific handler format (e.g., index.handler for Python).
Always use environment variables (HUAWEI_AK, HUAWEI_SK, etc.) and never expose credentials in code or logs. Use an IAM user instead of the main account.
The creation will fail with a FunctionAlreadyExists error. Use a different function name or delete the existing function first.
Yes, you can batch create functions by calling the skill multiple times with different parameters or by implementing a loop in your automation script.
Default memory is 128 MB and default timeout is 3 seconds. Both can be customized via optional parameters.

FunctionGraph Function Creation Skill
Overview
This skill creates FunctionGraph functions on Huawei Cloud based on user-provided parameters including function name, runtime, and code content.
Architecture: Uses Huawei Cloud FunctionGraph Python SDK to interact with FunctionGraph service.
Applicable Scenarios:
- Quickly create cloud functions without manual console login
- Batch creation of multiple functions
- Foundation component for workflow deployment
- CI/CD integration for function deployment
Typical Use Cases:
- "Create a Python function named my_handler"
- "Deploy this code to FunctionGraph"
- "Batch create 10 functions from template"
Prerequisites
1. Python Environment
- Python 3.9+
- Verify:
python --version
2. SDK Installation
pip install huaweicloudsdkfunctiongraph
3. Authentication Configuration
- Valid Huawei Cloud credentials (AK/SK mode)
- Configure via environment variables:
export HUAWEI_AK="your-access-key"
export HUAWEI_SK="your-secret-key"
export HUAWEI_REGION="cn-north-4"
export HUAWEI_PROJECT_ID="your-project-id"
Security Rules:
- NEVER expose AK/SK values in code or logs
- NEVER let users input AK/SK directly in conversation
- ALWAYS use environment variables for credentials
- Recommend using IAM user instead of main account
4. IAM Permission Requirements
functiongraph:function:create- Create functionfunctiongraph:function:get- Query function detailsfunctiongraph:function:list- List functions
See IAM Policies for detailed permission configuration.
Usage
Command
cd scripts
python create_function.py --name <function_name> --runtime <runtime> --han
dler <handler> --code <code_content> --memory <memory_size> --timeout <timeout>
Parameter Confirmation
|| Parameter | Required/Optional | Description | Default ||
|| ----------- | ------------------ | ------------- | --------- ||
|| function_name | Required | Function name, must follow naming rules | - ||
|| runtime | Required | Runtime environment (Python3.9, etc.) | - ||
|| code_content | Required | Function code content | - ||
|| handler | Required | Function entry point (e.g., index.handler) | - ||
|| memory_size | Optional | Memory size in MB | 128 ||
|| timeout | Optional | Timeout in seconds | 3 ||
|| description | Optional | Function description | - ||
Runtime Options
|| Runtime | Handler Format | Example ||
|| --------- | ---------------- | --------- ||
|| Python3.9 | index.handler | def handler(event, context): ||
|| Node.js14.18 | index.handler | exports.handler = (event, context) => {} ||
|| Java8 | com.example.Handler::handleRequest | Java class method ||
|| Go1.x | handler | Go function name ||
Verification Method
See Verification Method for detailed procedures.
Quick Verification
## Verify function exists using SDK
from huaweicloudsdkfunctiongraph.v2.functiongraph_client import FunctionGraphClient
from huaweicloudsdkfunctiongraph.v2.model import ListFunctionsRequest
# List functions to verify creation
client = FunctionGraphClient.new_builder().build()
request = ListFunctionsRequest()
response = client.list_functions(request)
print(f"Total functions: {len(response.functions)}")
Output Format
The skill returns a structured JSON object with the following fields:
function_urn: Unique resource identifier of the created functionfunction_name: Name of the created functionruntime: Runtime environmentmemory_size: Allocated memory in MBtimeout: Function timeout in secondshandler: Function entry pointdescription: Function description (if provided)
Example output:
{
"function_urn": "urn:fss:cn-north-4:project_id:function:default:my_function",
"function_name": "my_function",
"runtime": "Python3.9",
"memory_size": 128,
"timeout": 3,
"handler": "index.handler",
"description": "Test function created by skill"
}
Best Practices
- Test before production: Always test in a development environment first
- Monitor resources: Set up monitoring for function invocations and errors
- Use environment variables: Store sensitive data in environment variables
- Implement error handling: Add proper error handling in function code
- Set appropriate timeouts: Configure timeout based on function logic
Error Handling
|| Error Code | Description | Resolution || || ------------ | ------------- | ------------ || || InvalidParameter | Invalid input parameters | Check parameter format and valu es || || InsufficientPermission | Insufficient permissions | Check IAM permissions || || QuotaExceeded | Resource quota exceeded | Request quota increase or delete un used functions || || FunctionAlreadyExists | Function with same name exists | Use different functi on name or delete existing function ||
