1. Follow the Cloud Functions quickstart guide to setup Cloud Functions for your project.

2. Clone this repository:

    git clone https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/nodejs-docs-samples.git
    cd nodejs-docs-samples/functions/gcs
   

3. Create a Cloud Storage Bucket to stage our deployment:

    gsutil mb gs://YOUR_BUCKET_NAME
   

   • Replace YOUR_BUCKET_NAME with the name of your Cloud Storage Bucket.

4. Upload the sample file to the bucket:

    gsutil cp sample.txt gs://YOUR_BUCKET_NAME
   

   • Replace YOUR_BUCKET_NAME with the name of your Cloud Storage Bucket.

5. Deploy the "wordCount" function with an HTTP trigger:

    gcloud alpha functions deploy wordCount --stage-bucket YOUR_BUCKET_NAME --trigger-http
   

   • Replace YOUR_BUCKET_NAME with the name of your Cloud Storage Bucket.

6. Call the "wordCount" function using the sample file:

    gcloud alpha functions call wordCount --data '{"bucket":"YOUR_BUCKET_NAME","file":"sample.txt"}'
   

   • Replace YOUR_BUCKET_NAME with the name of your Cloud Storage Bucket.

   You should see something like this in your console
