By default, your Adamite instance will be configured with a basic functions package found in the functions
folder. This folder is a self-contained NPM package with its own dependencies. The entry point to all of your functions (known as a function root) is a file called functions/src/index.js
.
In this file, you can see a basic invokable function declared, called helloWorld
. Calling this function using the SDK would result in "Hello World"
being logged to the server's console.
There are three types of functions you can export within your function root.
Function Type
