OpenWhsik Java Deployment

Serverless Framework
1

I am trying to use the openwhisk-java-plugin and here is the serverless.yaml

service: helloworld
frameworkVersion: ">=1.2.0 <2.0.0"

provider:
  name: openwhisk
  runtime: java
  ignore_certs: true

package:
 artifact: target/demo-function.jar

functions:
  demo:
    handler: com.example.FunctionApp

plugins:
  - "serverless-openwhisk"

When I try to deploy the function I get the following error :frowning:

Serverless: Packaging function: demo...

  Serverless Error ---------------------------------------

  Function handler (com.example.FunctionApp) does not exist.

  Your Environment Information -----------------------------
     OS:                     darwin
     Node Version:           10.0.0
     Serverless Version:     1.27.2

I assume the handler for Java with jar should pass that as appropriate parameter to the underlying provider.

Can you please let me know if something missing ???

The Java template looks like the default serverless.yml contains a bug.

If you change the configuration to the following template it works.

service: helloworld

provider:
  name: openwhisk
  runtime: java

# you can add packaging information here
functions:
  demo:
    handler: target/demo-function.jar:com.example.FunctionApp

plugins:
  - "serverless-openwhisk"

Thanks James, with that modified configuration I could move past the original error. However there is a new error:

$ sls deploy
Serverless: Packaging service...
Serverless: Compiling Functions...

  Serverless Error ---------------------------------------

  Unable to read handler file in function demo

I extracted the .jar and the .class is definitely there.
