Managing Python function dependencies
Cloud Functions can automatically install dependencies required for a Python function to run. To do this, when creating a new function version, it executes the pip install
command in the project root (folder with the function).
To specify the necessary function libraries, list them in the requirements.txt
file. For more information about the requirements.txt
file format, see the pip documentation
Sample requirements.txt
file:
boto3==1.13.15
attrs==19.3.0
The dependency installation process has some restrictions. For more information, see Quotas and limits in Cloud Functions. You can view the dependency installation log using the link that appears in the list of operations.
