#Two Ways to Use This Project

#1) Function Author Guide

Use this when writing/organizing your functions.

Start here:

• Function spec
• Static assets and built-in endpoints

Minimal local example:

// index.mjs
import { start } from 'bfast-function';
import { dirname } from 'path';
import { fileURLToPath } from 'url';

const __dirname = dirname(fileURLToPath(import.meta.url));

await start({
  port: '3000',
  functionsConfig: {
    functionsDirPath: `${__dirname}/functions`,
    bfastJsonPath: `${__dirname}/bfast.json`
  }
});

node index.mjs

#2) Runtime Operator Guide

Use this when running the engine in Docker/swarm/CI and pulling function bundles remotely.

Start here:

• Runtime options
• Environment variables
• Docker
• Security and operations
• Validation scenarios

#Quick Checks

After startup:

curl http://localhost:3000/functions-health
curl http://localhost:3000/functions-all
