The Greeter Example

This is a simple example that runs a asynchrouns stateful function that accepts requests from a Kafka ingress, and then responds by sending greeting responses to a Kafka egress. It demonstrates the primitive building blocks of a Stateful Functions applications, such as ingresses, handling state in functions, and sending messages to egresses.

1. Make sure that you have built the Python distribution To build the distribution

   • cd statefun-python-sdk/
   • ./build-distribution.sh

2. Run ./build-example.sh

Running the example

To run the example:

./build-example.sh
docker-compose up -d

Then, to see the example in actions, see what comes out of the topic greetings:

docker-compose logs -f event-generator
