Google Cloud Run

Lithops with GCP Cloud Run as serverless compute backend.

Installation

  1. Install Google Cloud Platform backend dependencies:
python3 -m install lithops[gcp]

  1. Login to Google Cloud Console (or sign up if you don't have an account).

  2. Create a new project. Name it lithops or similar.

  3. Navigate to IAM & Admin > Service Accounts.

  4. Click on Create Service Account. Name the service account lithops-executor or similar. Then click on Create.

  5. Add the following roles to the service account:

  • Service Accounts --> Service Account User
  • Cloud Run --> Cloud Run Admin
  • Cloud Storage -->Storage Admin

  1. Click on Continue. Then, click on Create key. Select JSON and then Create. Download the JSON file to a secure location in you computer. Click Done.

  2. Enable the Cloud Build API : Navigate to APIs & services tab on the menu. Click ENABLE APIS AND SERVICES. Look for "Cloud Build API" at the search bar. Click Enable.

  3. Enable the Cloud Run API : Navigate to APIs & services tab on the menu. Click ENABLE APIS AND SERVICES. Look for "Cloud Run API" at the search bar. Click Enable.

Configuration

  1. Edit your lithops config and add the following keys:
    lithops:
        backend: gcp_cloudrun

    gcp:
        region : <REGION_NAME>
        credentials_path : <FULL_PATH_TO_CREDENTIALS_JSON>

Summary of configuration keys for Google Cloud

Google Cloud Platform:

Group Key Default Mandatory Additional info
gcp region yes Region name of the GCP services (e.g. us-east1)
gcp credentials_path yes Absolute path of your JSON key file downloaded in step 7 (e.g. /home/myuser/lithops-invoker1234567890.json). Alternatively you can set GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS environment variable. If not provided it will try to load the default credentials from the environment

Google Cloud Run

Group Key Default Mandatory Additional info
gcp_cloudrun region no Region name (e.g. us-east1). Lithops will use the region set under the gcp section if it is not set here
gcp_cloudrun min_workers 0 no Minimum number of workers of a given runtime to keep in warm status
gcp_cloudrun max_workers 1000 no Maximum number of workers to scale a given runtime
gcp_cloudrun worker_processes 1 no Number of Lithops processes within a given worker. This can be used to parallelize function activations within a worker. It is recommendable to set this value to the same number of CPUs of the container.
gcp_cloudrun runtime no Container image name
gcp_cloudrun runtime_cpu 0.25 no CPU limit. Default 0.25vCPU
gcp_cloudrun runtime_memory 256 no Memory limit in MB. Default 256Mi
gcp_cloudrun runtime_timeout 300 no Runtime timeout in seconds. Default 5 minutes
gcp_cloudrun trigger https no Currently it supports 'https' trigger
gcp_cloudrun invoke_pool_threads 100 no Number of concurrent threads used for invocation

Test Lithops

Once you have your compute and storage backends configured, you can run a hello world function with:

lithops hello -b gcp_cloudrun -s gcp_storage

Viewing the execution logs

You can view the function executions logs in your local machine using the lithops client:
