File system

Shows how to access a Cloud Functions instance's file system.

Code sample

C#

To authenticate to Cloud Run functions, set up Application Default Credentials. For more information, see Set up authentication for a local development environment.

using Google.Cloud.Functions.Framework;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http;
using System.IO;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace FileSystem;

public class Function : IHttpFunction
{
    public async Task HandleAsync(HttpContext context)
    {
        string[] files = Directory.GetFiles(".");

        await context.Response.WriteAsync("Files:\n", context.RequestAborted);
        foreach (string file in files)
        {
            await context.Response.WriteAsync($"\t{file}\n", context.RequestAborted);
        }
    }
}

Go

Java

import com.google.cloud.functions.HttpFunction;
import com.google.cloud.functions.HttpRequest;
import com.google.cloud.functions.HttpResponse;
import java.io.File;

import java.io.PrintWriter;

public class FileSystem implements HttpFunction {

  // Lists the files in the current directory.
  @Override
  public void service(HttpRequest request, HttpResponse response)
      throws IOException {
    File currentDirectory = new File(".");
    File[] files = currentDirectory.listFiles();
    PrintWriter writer = new PrintWriter(response.getWriter());
    writer.println("Files:");
    for (File f : files) {
      writer.printf("\t%s%n", f.getName());
    }
  }
}

Node.js

To authenticate to Cloud Run functions, set up Application Default Credentials. For more information, see Set up authentication for a local development environment.

const fs = require('fs');
const functions = require('@google-cloud/functions-framework');

/**
 * HTTP Cloud Function that lists files in the function directory
 *
 * @param {Object} req Cloud Function request context.
 * @param {Object} res Cloud Function response context.
 */
functions.http('listFiles', (req, res) => {
  fs.readdir(__dirname, (err, files) => {
    if (err) {
      console.error(err);
      res.sendStatus(500);
    } else {
      console.log('Files', files);
      res.sendStatus(200);
    }
  });
});
